Configuration for BAAS SOAP services
Since Blueriq 14.9 you can configure SOAP services that are exposed as BAAS can be configured to verify WS-Security information of an incoming SOAP message and apply WS-Security profiles on the outgoing response.
Endpoint group configuration
Incoming SOAP messages can be processed using interceptors, which have to be configured per endpoint groups. Endpoint groups allow you to apply different WS-Security processing for different webservices and/or SOAP-Actions, which may be desirable if only a subset of endpoints have to apply a certain interceptor.
Endpoint groups have to be configured in property files as lists. The list enables you to configure multiple endpoint groups, where each endpoint group is matched in order: the first endpoint that matches an incoming message is used to determine the set of interceptors that are being used. Each endpoint group can specify the name(s) of webservices and/or soap-actions for which it should be activated. It is allowed to omit either or both of these properties, enabling you to activate the endpoint for all messages, all messages for certain webservices or all messages with certain SOAP-Action.
For example, the following configuration defines four endpoint groups, with the last group acting as a catch-all condition.
| Code Block | ||
|---|---|---|
| ||
blueriq.baas.soap.endpoints[0].webservices=MySoapService,MySoapService2 blueriq.baas.soap.endpoints[0].soap-actions=MyAction,MyAction2 blueriq.baas.soap.endpoints[0].interceptors=MyInterceptor1,MyInterceptor2 blueriq.baas.soap.endpoints[1].soap-actions=MyAction blueriq.baas.soap.endpoints[1].interceptors=MyInterceptor1 blueriq.baas.soap.endpoints[2].webservices=MySoapService blueriq.baas.soap.endpoints[2].interceptors=MyInterceptor2 blueriq.baas.soap.endpoints[3].interceptors=DefaultInterceptor |

Registering an interceptor
An interceptor has to be registered by name using properties, as follows:
| Code Block | ||
|---|---|---|
| ||
blueriq.baas.soap.interceptors.security.MyInterceptorName.request.accept-unsecured-messages=false blueriq.baas.soap.interceptors.security.MyInterceptorName.request.decryption.enabled=false blueriq.baas.soap.interceptors.security.MyInterceptorName.request.signature.enabled=false blueriq.baas.soap.interceptors.security.MyInterceptorName.request.timestamp.enabled=false blueriq.baas.soap.interceptors.security.MyInterceptorName.response.encryption.enabled=false blueriq.baas.soap.interceptors.security.MyInterceptorName.response.signature.enabled=false blueriq.baas.soap.interceptors.security.MyInterceptorName.response.timestamp.enabled=false |
In the above example you can see how each WS-Security profile can be enabled/disabled. A profile is disabled by default, so the above enabled properties are redundant and are only shown to clarify the configuration. Properties that are marked as

Configuration for AQ_SoapServiceClient
The configuration of AQ_SoapServiceClient allows for the exact same properties as documented above for BAAS webservices, however the request and response properties have been swapped.
Connection configuration
Security interceptors can be configured on a per-connection basis as described in the SOAP Connections Properties.

Keystore configuration
Since WS-Security is based on symmetric cryptography operations, a public/private key pair is used to encrypt/decrypt and to perform signing and signature validation. These keys have to be stored in a keystore in JKS format (Java KeyStore, .jks extension) or PKCS #12 format (.p12 extension) , which has to be configured as follows:
| Code Block |
|---|
blueriq.security.keystore.location=file://client.jks blueriq.security.keystore.password= |
| Info | ||
|---|---|---|
| ||
The configured passwords can be encrypted using the property encryption tool. |

|
Parts configuration
Some WS-Security aspects can be applied to only a subset of the message. The relevant profiles provide a parts property to configure this, which requires the following syntax:
- multiple part configurations must be separated by a semi-colon
each value may be preceded by a mode specifier, either
{Content}or{Element}. If not specified it defaults to{Content}the mode specifier may be followed by a namespace specifier. If omitted, it defaults to the SOAP namespace.
- the value must contain the name of the element which must be encrypted
For example, the value {Content}{http://example.org/paymentv2}CreditCard;{Element}{None}Username has the following meaning:
- the content of the
CreditCardelement in the http://example.org/paymentv2 namespace will be encrypted. TheCreditCardelement itself is not encrypted, so any attributes on this element will be in plain text - the
Usernameelement with no namespace is encrypted. The element itself is also encrypted, so any attributes will not be visible in plain text.
