- SAP Managed Tags:
This blog post shows how to support authorization (scope, role) in a user-centric scenario where a REST endpoint is called from an application in a different subaccount (in different region).
Used technologies: SAP BTP, Cloud Foundry, XSUAA, SAML2, OAuth2, Destination, OAuth2SAMLBearerAsertion, Node.js,
This blog post builds completely on top of the scenario described in detail in the previous postings: intro and tutorial.
This blog is based on default setup in trial accounts. If you have own custom Identity Provider, you might prefer the next blog post.

Appendix 3: Sample Code for Destination Configuration
The detailed description of our setup is described in the intro blog.
In our example scenario, we have a kind of service-providing application, which we call “Backend App” and which is deployed in a Trial account in region Singapore (ap21).
We want to call it from a “Frontend Application” which is deployed in a different Trial account in a different region (us10).
The challenge of our scenario was authenticating a user across boundaries of different subaccounts and regions.
The solution was to define Trust (based on SAML) and to use a destination of type "OAuth2SAMLBearerAssertion".
In the previous tutorial, we’ve focused on describing how to configure trust and destination, to realize authentication for the backend app which is protected with OAuth.
However, we ignored the authorization aspect.
So this is todays challenge:
In addition to protecting our backend app with OAuth, we require a scope. And we expect that the frontend app sends a JWT token which contains that scope.
How to solve this challenge?
The solution is much more simple than expected:
We proceed as usual, in the backend subaccount, we assign the role collection to the “frontend” user.
This is possible thanks to the configured trust.
Below diagram shows the scenario and the relevant components:
In the diagram we can see that a user accesses the frontend application.
This user is known to the identity provider, so the logon (via approuter and xsuaa) is successful.
The frontend app calls the backend app which is protected via xsuaa and defines a scope.
This scope is contained in a role collection.
The clou is:
The second subaccount defines trust to the frontend subaccount.
As such, the users of frontend IDP are available in backend via trust.
So the frontend user can be configured in the role collection.
Like that, when a JWT token is fetched for the frontend user, it will contain the backend scope.
Basically, this is already all the knowledge which is aimed to be transferred in this tutorial.
Curious readers however, might wish to go through the step-by-step description given below.
Most explanations are given in the previous blogs, so todays tutorial will be much faster.
You can re-use previous deployment, if not already deleted.
New readers can safely create everything from scratch and turn to the previous posts for explanations.
The previous tutorial and this prerequisites section are prerequisites.
We use the project as created here.
We’re using the same backend application as in the previous tutorial, with 2 differences:
We login to the Trial account which represents the backend.
In my example:
cf login -a https://api.cf.ap21.hana.ondemand.com -o backendorg
Today we want to secure our backend app not only with OAuth protection, but also with a scope.
This ensures that only users who have been assigned authorization (by admin) are able to call our endpoint.
We enhance the security descriptor to define a scope which is wrapped in a role-template.
For more convenience, we also define a role collection that can be assigned to a user (by admin).
The command to create the instance from scratch:
cf cs xsuaa application backendXsuaa -c backend-security.json
The command to update existing instance:
cf update-service backendXsuaa -c backend-security.json
After running the command, we can check that the role and role collection are available in the backend subaccount dashboard.
In our application code, we can now check if the required scope is available in the incoming JWT token.
For the very first test, I use to comment the hard check and instead, send the info in the response.
The complete sample code can be found in the appendix 1.
After deploy, we can take a note of the service-endpoint URL.
In my example:
https://backend.cfapps.ap21.hana.ondemand.com/endpoint
The frontend app is explained in previous post and contains no difference.
So we go through the creation process without further comments
We log on to the Trial account used for the frontend.
In my example:
cf login -a https://api.cf.us10.hana.ondemand.com -o frontendorg
The creation command:
cf cs xsuaa application frontendXsuaa -c frontend-security.json
The creation command:
cf cs destination lite frontendDestination
The complete sample code can be found in the appendix 2.
The complete sample code can be found in the appendix 2.
After deploy, we get the application entry URL, but we don’t use it until all configuration has been finished.
The trust configuration does not differ from the description in previous tutorial.
Short description:
Download IdP Metadata from frontend subaccount -> Connectivity -> Destinations
Configure Trust at subaccount -> Security -> Trust Configuration -> New
Name: "Frontend_IDP"
Available for User Logon: disabled
Creating the destination is described in detail in previous blog post.
So today we can just import the destination configuration at
frontend_subaccount -> Connectivity -> Destinations -> Import Destination
The destination configuration can be copied (and adapted) from the appendix 3.
After import, anyways, we need to manually enter the sensitive info: clientid/secret.
To get the required info, we need to view the environment variables of our deployed backend app.
E.g. via these commands:
cf login -a https://api.cf.ap21.hana.ondemand.com -o backendorg
cf env backend
Then find the section of XSUAA binding and copy the properties into the destination configuration.
In my example:
"clientid": "sb-backendxsuaa!t7722"
"clientsecret": "msWms8tylSHWi4HJ7pTPhHNwaiM="
Remember:
"Client Key" <- clientid
"Token Service User" <- clientid
"Token Service Password" <- clientsecret
After finishing with the 2 required configurations, we (still) cannot call our application.
We first need to assign the roles, which we defined in our security config files, to our user.
Today, we need an additional step, we need to assign roles on both sides, frontend and backend.
5.1.1. Assign Frontend Role
Our frontend app requires a role with the uaa.user scope, as described in previous tutorial.
To assign this role, we login to our frontend Trial account
5.1.2. Assign Backend Role
This step is new.
The challenge:
We have a (frontend) user who accesses our (frontend) application which is running in (frontend) account in some foreign region (like e.g. us10).
This user is only available in that account, not in backend account.
So we cannot use a “grant” statement on XSUAA level to assign the backend role to the frontend user (as described here).
Nevertheless, the solution is different and more simple:
After we defined the trust to the IDP of Frontend_Subaccount, we can access the users of this Identity Provider.
As such, we can just go ahead, login to the backend subaccount and assign the (frontend) user to the (backend) role which we require in our (backend) application.
To start the flow, we enter our frontend application via the approuter URL.
In my example:
https://frontendrouter.cfapps.us10.hana.ondemand.com/tofrontend/homepage
As a result, our browser should show the 4 JWT sections successfully.
5.2.1. Scope
The JWT information was explained in detail in previous blog post.
For today, we have one additional happiness factor: the scope information.
We can see that the backendscope, which was defined and validated by the backend app, has found its way into the JWT token, which is sent by the frontend app.
This makes us happy.
At least, it made my day, when I saw it for the first time.
Frontend Subaccount:
Manually delete destination configuration.
Delete artifacts:
cf login -a https://api.cf.us10.hana.ondemand.com -o frontendorg
cf d frontend -r -f
cf d frontendrouter -r -f
cf ds frontendXsuaa -f
cf ds frontendDestination -f
Backend Subaccount:
Manually delete trust configuration.
Delete artifacts:
cf login -a https://api.cf.ap21.hana.ondemand.com -o backendorg
cf d backend -r -f
cf ds backendXsuaa -f
In todays tutorial, we’ve learned how to configure authorization (scope) in a cross-subaccount scenario.
The previous tutorial already showed that authentication is possible after configuring trust between subaccounts
Today we’ve seen that we can build on this trust, in order to assign a role to a user from foreign identity provider.
As such, when a frontend user logs into the frontend app, he will receive the backend role, when calling the backend app via destination.
In the next blog post, we're using an external custom Identity Provider and connect it to both our subaccounts. This allows us to use user-group and role collection mapping, to enable authorization.

Prerequisites
The previous tutorial and this prerequisites section are prerequisites.
Preparation
We use the project as created here.
1. Create Backend Application
We’re using the same backend application as in the previous tutorial, with 2 differences:
- We define a scope in our security config.
- We enforce that scope in our application code.
1.0. Preparation
We login to the Trial account which represents the backend.
In my example:
cf login -a https://api.cf.ap21.hana.ondemand.com -o backendorg
1.1. Create XSUAA Service Instance
Today we want to secure our backend app not only with OAuth protection, but also with a scope.
This ensures that only users who have been assigned authorization (by admin) are able to call our endpoint.
We enhance the security descriptor to define a scope which is wrapped in a role-template.
For more convenience, we also define a role collection that can be assigned to a user (by admin).
"scopes": [{
"name": "$XSAPPNAME.backendscope"
}],
"role-templates": [{
"name": "BackendRole",
"scope-references": ["$XSAPPNAME.backendscope"]
}],
"role-collections": [{
"name": "Backend_Roles",
"role-template-references": ["$XSAPPNAME.BackendRole"]
The command to create the instance from scratch:
cf cs xsuaa application backendXsuaa -c backend-security.json
The command to update existing instance:
cf update-service backendXsuaa -c backend-security.json
After running the command, we can check that the role and role collection are available in the backend subaccount dashboard.
1.2. Create Backend Application
In our application code, we can now check if the required scope is available in the incoming JWT token.
app.get('/endpoint', passport.authenticate('JWT', {session: false}), (req, res) => {
const authInfo = req.authInfo
console.log(`===> [AUDIT] backendapp accessed by user '${authInfo.getGivenName()}' from subdomain '${authInfo.getSubdomain()}' with oauth client: '${authInfo.getClientId()}'`)
const isScopeAvailable = authInfo.checkScope(UAA_CREDENTIALS.xsappname + '.backendscope')
if (! isScopeAvailable) {
// res.status(403).end('Forbidden. Missing authorization.') // Don't fail during prototyping
}
res.json({
'message': `Backend app successfully called. Scope available: ${isScopeAvailable}`,
'jwtToken': authInfo.getAppToken()})
})
For the very first test, I use to comment the hard check and instead, send the info in the response.
The complete sample code can be found in the appendix 1.
1.3. Deploy
After deploy, we can take a note of the service-endpoint URL.
In my example:
https://backend.cfapps.ap21.hana.ondemand.com/endpoint
2. Create Frontend Application
The frontend app is explained in previous post and contains no difference.
So we go through the creation process without further comments
2.0. Preparation
We log on to the Trial account used for the frontend.
In my example:
cf login -a https://api.cf.us10.hana.ondemand.com -o frontendorg
2.1. Create XSUAA Service Instance
The creation command:
cf cs xsuaa application frontendXsuaa -c frontend-security.json
2.2. Create Destination Service Instance
The creation command:
cf cs destination lite frontendDestination
2.3. Create Core Application
The complete sample code can be found in the appendix 2.
2.4. Create Approuter
The complete sample code can be found in the appendix 2.
2.5. Deploy
After deploy, we get the application entry URL, but we don’t use it until all configuration has been finished.
3. Configure Trust
The trust configuration does not differ from the description in previous tutorial.
Short description:
3.1. Frontend Subaccount
Download IdP Metadata from frontend subaccount -> Connectivity -> Destinations
3.2. Backend Subaccount
Configure Trust at subaccount -> Security -> Trust Configuration -> New
Name: "Frontend_IDP"

4. Create Destination
Creating the destination is described in detail in previous blog post.
So today we can just import the destination configuration at
frontend_subaccount -> Connectivity -> Destinations -> Import Destination
The destination configuration can be copied (and adapted) from the appendix 3.

After import, anyways, we need to manually enter the sensitive info: clientid/secret.
To get the required info, we need to view the environment variables of our deployed backend app.
E.g. via these commands:
cf login -a https://api.cf.ap21.hana.ondemand.com -o backendorg
cf env backend
Then find the section of XSUAA binding and copy the properties into the destination configuration.
In my example:
"clientid": "sb-backendxsuaa!t7722"
"clientsecret": "msWms8tylSHWi4HJ7pTPhHNwaiM="
Remember:
"Client Key" <- clientid
"Token Service User" <- clientid
"Token Service Password" <- clientsecret
5. Run Scenario
After finishing with the 2 required configurations, we (still) cannot call our application.
5.1. Assign Roles
We first need to assign the roles, which we defined in our security config files, to our user.
Today, we need an additional step, we need to assign roles on both sides, frontend and backend.
5.1.1. Assign Frontend Role
Our frontend app requires a role with the uaa.user scope, as described in previous tutorial.
To assign this role, we login to our frontend Trial account
5.1.2. Assign Backend Role
This step is new.
The challenge:
We have a (frontend) user who accesses our (frontend) application which is running in (frontend) account in some foreign region (like e.g. us10).
This user is only available in that account, not in backend account.
So we cannot use a “grant” statement on XSUAA level to assign the backend role to the frontend user (as described here).
Nevertheless, the solution is different and more simple:
After we defined the trust to the IDP of Frontend_Subaccount, we can access the users of this Identity Provider.
As such, we can just go ahead, login to the backend subaccount and assign the (frontend) user to the (backend) role which we require in our (backend) application.
- Login to our backend Trial account
- Go to Security -> Role Collections
The role collection “Backend_Roles” is already existing and the BackendRole is already configured. - Switch to “Edit” mode
- Go to “Users” section
- Choose the trusted “Frontend_IDP”.
- Type the (frontend) user email into the "ID" field and "E-Mail" field.
- Save.
5.2. Run
To start the flow, we enter our frontend application via the approuter URL.
In my example:
https://frontendrouter.cfapps.us10.hana.ondemand.com/tofrontend/homepage
As a result, our browser should show the 4 JWT sections successfully.
5.2.1. Scope
The JWT information was explained in detail in previous blog post.
For today, we have one additional happiness factor: the scope information.
We can see that the backendscope, which was defined and validated by the backend app, has found its way into the JWT token, which is sent by the frontend app.
This makes us happy.
At least, it made my day, when I saw it for the first time.
6. Cleanup
Frontend Subaccount:
Manually delete destination configuration.
Delete artifacts:
cf login -a https://api.cf.us10.hana.ondemand.com -o frontendorg
cf d frontend -r -f
cf d frontendrouter -r -f
cf ds frontendXsuaa -f
cf ds frontendDestination -f
Backend Subaccount:
Manually delete trust configuration.
Delete artifacts:
cf login -a https://api.cf.ap21.hana.ondemand.com -o backendorg
cf d backend -r -f
cf ds backendXsuaa -f
Summary
In todays tutorial, we’ve learned how to configure authorization (scope) in a cross-subaccount scenario.
The previous tutorial already showed that authentication is possible after configuring trust between subaccounts
Today we’ve seen that we can build on this trust, in order to assign a role to a user from foreign identity provider.
As such, when a frontend user logs into the frontend app, he will receive the backend role, when calling the backend app via destination.
Quick Guide
- In backend application, we define a scope and a role-template.
- In backend subaccount, we create a new trust configuration with the IDP metadata (connectivity) of frontend subaccount.
- In backend subaccount, we can now assign users of frontend IDP to the backend role collection.
Next Step
In the next blog post, we're using an external custom Identity Provider and connect it to both our subaccounts. This allows us to use user-group and role collection mapping, to enable authorization.
