  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • OAuth Metadata size has been increased for 1024, however,
    introspection call still limited the size of response for
    metadata to 512. This size will be increase to 1024 to properly
    reflect the update metadata size limit.
    

Local fix

  • N/A
    

Problem summary

  • Introspecting an Access_token with metadata larger than 512
    bytes will result in `metadata too large` error instead of
    metadata being populated.
    

Problem conclusion

  • Increase the size of metadata in the response for introspection
    of an Access_token from 512 to 1024 bytes, which is the size
    limit for metadata. All users on 5.0.8.10-iFix, 10.0.2.0, and
    2018.4.1.15 and later will be able to see successful response
    from metadata endpoint.
