  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • We can create an OIDC registry without using a client-secret
    (Client authentication method
    :Data encoded form body). However, once the registry is set with
    with a client-secret value, apim doesn't clean up the
    client-secret afterwards, when users try to remove it from an
    existing user-registry configuration.
    

Local fix

  • N/A
    

Problem summary

  • If the authentication method is form_body, the client_secret for
    an OIDC user registry is optional.  Before this fix, customer
    cannot update an existing OIDC user registry to remove the
    client_secret
    

Problem conclusion

  • Issue fixed in API Connect version 10.0.5.5 and 10.0.1.13
    

Temporary fix
