To open the HTTP/2 Client agent configuration dialog from a workflow configuration, you can do either one of the following:
...
| Setting | Description | |||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Settings | ||||||
| Use SSL | Select this option to use the SSL. | |||||
| Security Profile | Click Browse to select a security profile with certificate and configuration to use, if you prefer to use a secure connection. Refer to Security (3.3) for more information. | |||||
| Min Connections Per Destination | Specify the minimum number of connections towards an endpoint (identified by host:port) that the agent will try to maintain. A value of 0 indicates "no minimum". This is not a hard limit as there could be more connections created during the spike in traffic. For more details see Algorithm for Minimum Connections. | |||||
| Min Connections Per Destination Check Interval(s) | Specify how often you wish to check the established connections. A value of 0 indicates "no check will be performed". After each interval, the agent will try to create additional connections to achieve number set in the Min Connections Per Destination parameter. No connections will be shut down if the current number of connections is greater than the number set in Min Connections Per Destination. For more details, see | |||||
| Default connection concurrent streams | The initial value of concurrent streams that the client would like to handle per connection. The default value is 1000.
| |||||
| Timeout | ||||||
| Request Timeout (sec) | Enter the timeout period in seconds for the request to the HTTP/2 client to wait for a response before timing out. | |||||
| Queue Settings | ||||||
| Max Requests Queued Per Destination | The size of the message queue in the Jetty server. Default is 20000.
| |||||
| Retry Interval For full Queues (ms) | A millisecond value to indicate the time it will take for the request to try again when the queue is full. | |||||
| Max Retries For Full Queue | When the Route Error UDR option is checked, this field will be enabled. This field will indicate how many times the request will attempt to retry before routing it to Error UDR. | |||||
| Route Error UDR | If this checkbox is selected, the request will attempt to be received by the agent until it reached the maximum amount of retries. Once the threshold is reached, the request will be stored in an Error UDR and sent as an output from the HTTP/2 client agent. If the checkbox is cleared the request will attempt the retries for an indefinite amount of time, until the workflow is terminated. | |||||
| Server Monitor | ||||||
Use HTTP2 Server Monitor | Select this checkbox to monitor the connection status of all servers that the agent has sent requests to. The monitoring is done by sending regular ping messages to the servers. If the servers are not responding, or there are other communication errors, they will be indicated as Unavailable. A list of the Available and Unavailable servers are available in two MIM values: | |||||
| Ping Interval (s) | Define the ping message interval for the Server Monitor. The time unit is seconds and 10 seconds is default. | |||||
...
| Setting | Description |
|---|---|
| Grant Type | Select the grant type:
|
| Client ID | Enter the unique client identifier issued by the authorization server. |
| Client Secret | Enter the client secret. |
| Username | Enter the resource owner username, this can be the end-user granting access to a protected resource. This field is required when you have selected Resource Owner Password Credentials from the drop-down list Grant Type. |
| Password | Enter the password associated with the username. This field is required when you have selected Resource Owner Password Credentials from the drop-down list Grant Type. |
Access Token URI | Enter the URI where the access token can be obtained. |
Token expiration override (sec) | Enter a time in seconds when you would like to refresh the access token prior to the expiration. This allows the application to obtain a new access token without the user's interaction. |
| Additional Parameters | Some authentication servers may require additional parameters in the body of the token requests. To add a parameter, click the Add button and then enter the name of the parameter in the Key field and the value of the parameter in the Value field. Do not use escape characters in the value field, these will be added automatically by the HTTP2 Client agent. For instance, "https://example.com/" will be sent as "https%3A%2F%2example.com%2F". |
| Note | |||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| |||||||
If an agent is configured on the Authentication Tab to use OAuth 2.0, an additional step may be required if the token needs to be obtained via HTTPS protocol. The HTTP/2 Client internally uses the Java built-in HTTP Client to obtain a token. If a certificate is required to contact the authentication server, the proper certificate has to be put into the default certificates file for the respective JDK distribution used.
