That and you're confusing requestContext (which is a deprecated object that is not part of this connector) with resolutionContext. At least one of the examples is wrong and refers to the wrong variable name. The documentation is and was right. That is the case 90% of the time, examples are never fully tested or accurate.

I've viewed the documentation (as always before I post) but we all know it is not always accurate or updated timely ...


https://wiki.shibboleth.net/confluence/display/IDP30/HTTPConnector has example of 

$pathEscaper.escape($requestContext.principal <https://webservice.example.org/api/subject/$pathEscaper.escape($requestContext.principal)/groups>)
didn't work 


https://wiki.shibboleth.net/confluence/display/IDP30/URLTemplate list a tabled of Template Context which for resolutionContext
 has a description of

"Commonly useful members include $resolutionContext.principal and $resolutionContext.attributeRecipientID "
 ... tried both and doesn't work either.

What's available is exactly what's documented. Since $requestContext.principalName is a V2-era deprecated syntax, and is not documented as being supported, it is not available.

Activation conditions are available on virtually every component to address that.
