If it's not documented then the information is only found in a combination of flow files, Spring files, and source code.

That's all positionally correct.

rpUIContext is only set in that version if the login flow being run actually sets it, or in one of the other interceptor flows. You need to use 3.3.0 or you would have to do all the work yourself if it doesn't happen to be done already by a login flow running.

In 3.3.0, all the authn flow does it in one place, it's no longer in any of the downstream flows.
