Interface AuthenticationClientBuilder

  • All Known Implementing Classes:
    DefaultAuthenticationClientBuilder

    public interface AuthenticationClientBuilder
    A Builder design pattern used to construct AuthenticationClient instances.

    The AuthenticationClientBuilder is used to construct AuthenticationClient instances with Okta credentials, Proxy and Cache configuration. Understanding caching is extremely important when creating a AuthenticationClient instance, so please ensure you read the Caching section below.

    Usage

    The simplest usage is to just call the build() method, for example:

     AuthenticationClient client = AuthenticationClients.builder().build();
     

    This will:

    • Automatically attempt to find your organization URL value in a number of default/conventional locations and then use the discovered values. Without any other configuration, the following locations will be each be checked, in order:
    1. The environment variable OKTA_CLIENT_ORGURL. If this values is present, they override any previously discovered value.
    2. A yaml file that exists at the file path ~/.okta/okta.yml or root of the classpath /okta.yml. If this file exists and any values are present, the values override any previously discovered value.
    3. The system properties okta.client.orgUrl. If this value is present, it will override any previously discovered values.

    Explicit API Key Configuration

    The above default configuration searching heuristics may not be suitable to your needs. In that case, you will likely need to explicitly configure the builder. For example:

     AuthenticationClient client = AuthenticationClients.builder()
       .setOrgUrl("https://example.okta.com")
       .build();

    • Method Detail

      • setProxy

        AuthenticationClientBuilder setProxy​(com.okta.commons.http.config.Proxy proxy)
        Sets the HTTP proxy to be used when communicating with the Okta API server. For example:
         Proxy proxy = new Proxy("whatever.domain.com", 443);
         AuthenticationClient client = AuthenticationClients.builder().setProxy(proxy).build();
         
        Parameters:
        proxy - the Proxy you need to use.
        Returns:
        the AuthenticationClientBuilder instance for method chaining.
      • setConnectionTimeout

        AuthenticationClientBuilder setConnectionTimeout​(int timeout)
        Sets both the timeout until a connection is established and the socket timeout (i.e. a maximum period of inactivity between two consecutive data packets). A timeout value of zero is interpreted as an infinite timeout.
        Parameters:
        timeout - connection and socket timeout in seconds
        Returns:
        the AuthenticationClientBuilder instance for method chaining
      • setOrgUrl

        AuthenticationClientBuilder setOrgUrl​(String baseUrl)
        Sets the base URL of the Okta REST API to use.
        Parameters:
        baseUrl - the base URL of the Okta REST API to use.
        Returns:
        the AuthenticationClientBuilder instance for method chaining
      • setRetryMaxElapsed

        AuthenticationClientBuilder setRetryMaxElapsed​(int maxElapsed)
        Sets the maximum number of milliseconds to wait when retrying before giving up.
        Parameters:
        maxElapsed - retry max elapsed duration in milliseconds
        Returns:
        the ClientBuilder instance for method chaining
      • setRetryMaxAttempts

        AuthenticationClientBuilder setRetryMaxAttempts​(int maxAttempts)
        Sets the maximum number of attempts to retrying before giving up.
        Parameters:
        maxAttempts - retry max attempts
        Returns:
        the ClientBuilder instance for method chaining
