Hello,

I would like to use the Restful dataConnector because inorder to
access the dataBase we are using the RestFul protocol. All my Resful
webservice API's use the POST request to get the data. and the request and
response data is of type JSON. I saw RestFul DataConnector Extension
<http://staff.washington.edu/fox/shibboleth/>. But, I haven't got
information on the below questions:


1) Will this RestFul DataConnector extension support the Http Post request
with a JSON request?
If so how can I send my request JSON data using the XML?. All my
request data are dynamic ones ie.., the request data will be varying
dynamically based on the user who is trying to login.

If not, Can you please guide me, in which way I can achieve my above
tasks? Or please provide the dataConnector extension which support POST
request.

2) My response data is also JSON. So, Will this extension can process the
JSON response.
If so, can I give the xpath of my response for the Attribute element?.

If not, Can you please provide me valid extension which can do that.


Thanks & Regards,
Sarath U.
