Post-Processing Procedures

Post-processing procedures are used to customize (add/read/modify/remove) the response parameters after processing. The value returned by this procedure will be used to render the final response.

This is currently supported only on Dynamic Client Registration endpoint. It can be used with both registration and management endpoints for dynamic clients.

    function result(context) {

        var request = context.getRequest()
        var httpMethod = request.getMethod()

        var attributes = context.getResponseFields()
        attributes.extra_post_processing_attribute = 'set-from-post-processing-script-for-' + httpMethod.toLowerCase()
        attributes.client_secret = null // remove
        attributes.scope = context.getResponseFields().scope.replace("openid", "")

        return attributes
    }

The context object has type DcrPostProcessingProcedureContext.

Return Value

The returned value should be a JavaScript map with the post-processed attributes.
