In CA API Gateway the generate security hash assertion would accept text type of key
In some scenario the key may be hex type and we are required to use that key in the assertion.
The result of using hex key type and text key type is different.
The generate security hash assertion uses a text type key to generate a hash. We need to use an hexadecimal key type instead of text type. How can we do this with available assertions?
CA API Gateway
1. The hex key can be defined using context variable with
content-type : text/xml; charset=utf-8
Data type : message
2. Use encode decode data assertion and decode the above defined hex value.
Encode/Decode: Base16(hex) Decode
Target Data type : Message
Content type : text/xml; charset=utf-8
3. Now use the generate security hash and use the output of 2. in Key
