Hi all, Writing custom authenticate handlers as described in [1] seems to be no longer valid. With APIM 1.7.0 on-wards we have to introduce custom authentication handlers by editing the template file located in <AM_HOME>/repository/resources/api_templates/velocity_template.xml.
However when doing that we have to make sure that it skips the default APIAuthenticationHandler too. Please see the following modified segment in that file which does this, <handlers xmlns="http://ws.apache.org/ns/synapse";> <handler class="org.wso2.carbon.apimgt.custom.authentication.handler.CustomAPIAuthenticationHandler" /> #foreach($handler in $handlers) #if(!($handler.className == "org.wso2.carbon.apimgt.gateway.handlers.security.APIAuthenticationHandler")) <handler xmlns="http://ws.apache.org/ns/synapse"; class="$handler.className"> #if($handler.hasProperties()) #set ($map = $handler.getProperties() ) #foreach($property in $map.entrySet()) <property name="$!property.key" value="$!property.value"/> #end #end </handler> #end #end </handlers> We have to do this as the handlers are passed from the code itself. Also please note that the package name of the custom implementation in [1] should be changed as it will conflict with org.wso2.carbon.apimgt.gateway bundle which will lead to some class loading issues. Please correct me if am wrong on this.
