Question about CacheKeyTemplate

[Krinetzki, Stephan]

Hello everyone,

I'm having a little problem with the CachKeyTemplate: As far as I can see in the documentation [0], you can freely define the template for the key. However, the documentation only mentions a simple variable. I would now like to work with a prefix and have tried something like this:

<CacheKeyTemplate>
    <![CDATA[
        http_cache:$employeeNumber.get(0)
    ]]>
</CacheKeyTemplate>

However, this has now led to an error: Apparently, all users have now received the same cached entry. Have I done something wrong or misunderstood something? This is an HTTPConnector that communicates with a SOAP web service and is supposed to cache its results. I have the latest IdP 5.1.4 with OpenJDK 17.

Regards

Stephan
