Note

In Azure Active Directory B2C, custom policies are designed primarily to address complex scenarios. For most scenarios, we recommend that you use built-in user flows. If you've not done so, learn about custom policy starter pack in Get started with custom policies in Active Directory B2C.

A claims transformation technical profile enables you to call output claims transformations to manipulate claims values, validate claims, or set default values for a set of output claims.

Protocol

The Name attribute of the Protocol element needs to be set to Proprietary. The handler attribute must contain the fully qualified name of the protocol handler assembly that is used by Azure AD B2C: Web.TPEngine.Providers.ClaimsTransformationProtocolProvider, Web.TPEngine, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null.

The following example shows a claims transformation technical profile:

<TechnicalProfile Id="Facebook-OAUTH-UnLink">
    <DisplayName>Unlink Facebook</DisplayName>
    <Protocol Name="Proprietary" Handler="Web.TPEngine.Providers.ClaimsTransformationProtocolProvider, Web.TPEngine, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null" />
  ...

Output claims

The OutputClaims element is mandatory. Provide at least one output claim returned by the technical profile. The following example shows how to set default values in the output claims:

<OutputClaims>
  <OutputClaim ClaimTypeReferenceId="ageGroup" DefaultValue="Undefined" />
  <OutputClaim ClaimTypeReferenceId="ageGroupValueChanged" DefaultValue="false" />
</OutputClaims>

Output claims transformations

The OutputClaimsTransformations element may contain a collection of OutputClaimsTransformation elements that are used to modify claims or generate new ones. The following technical profile calls the RemoveAlternativeSecurityIdByIdentityProvider claims transformation. This claims transformation removes a social identify from the collection of AlternativeSecurityIds. The output claims of this technical profile are identityProvider2, which is set to facebook.com, and AlternativeSecurityIds, which contains the list of social identities associated with this user after facebook.com identity is removed.

<ClaimsTransformations>
  <ClaimsTransformation Id="RemoveAlternativeSecurityIdByIdentityProvider"
TransformationMethod="RemoveAlternativeSecurityIdByIdentityProvider">
    <InputClaims>
      <InputClaim ClaimTypeReferenceId="IdentityProvider2"
TransformationClaimType="identityProvider" />
      <InputClaim ClaimTypeReferenceId="AlternativeSecurityIds"
TransformationClaimType="collection" />
    </InputClaims>
    <OutputClaims>
      <OutputClaim ClaimTypeReferenceId="AlternativeSecurityIds"
TransformationClaimType="collection" />
    </OutputClaims>
  </ClaimsTransformation>
</ClaimsTransformations>
...
<TechnicalProfile Id="Facebook-OAUTH-UnLink">
    <DisplayName>Unlink Facebook</DisplayName>
    <Protocol Name="Proprietary" Handler="Web.TPEngine.Providers.ClaimsTransformationProtocolProvider, Web.TPEngine, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null" />
    <OutputClaims>
        <OutputClaim ClaimTypeReferenceId="identityProvider2" DefaultValue="facebook.com" AlwaysUseDefaultValue="true" />
    </OutputClaims>
    <OutputClaimsTransformations>
        <OutputClaimsTransformation ReferenceId="RemoveAlternativeSecurityIdByIdentityProvider" />
    </OutputClaimsTransformations>
    <UseTechnicalProfileForSessionManagement ReferenceId="SM-Noop" />
</TechnicalProfile>

The claims transformation technical profile enables you to execute a claims transformation from any user journey's orchestration step. In the following example, the orchestration step calls one of the unlink technical profiles, such as UnLink-Facebook-OAUTH. This technical profile calls the output claims transformation RemoveAlternativeSecurityIdByIdentityProvider, which generates a new AlternativeSecurityIds2 claim. The output claim contains the list of user's social identities, while removing the Facebook identity from the collections.

<UserJourney Id="AccountUnLink">
  <OrchestrationSteps>
    ...
    <OrchestrationStep Order="8" Type="ClaimsExchange">
      <ClaimsExchanges>
        <ClaimsExchange Id="UnLinkFacebookExchange" TechnicalProfileReferenceId="UnLink-Facebook-OAUTH" />
        <ClaimsExchange Id="UnLinkMicrosoftExchange" TechnicalProfileReferenceId="UnLink-Microsoft-OAUTH" />
        <ClaimsExchange Id="UnLinkGitHubExchange" TechnicalProfileReferenceId="UnLink-GitHub-OAUTH" />
      </ClaimsExchanges>
    </OrchestrationStep>
    ...
  </OrchestrationSteps>
</UserJourney>

Metadata

Attribute	Required	Description
IncludeClaimResolvingInClaimsHandling	No	For input and output claims, specifies whether claims resolution is included in the technical profile. Possible values: `true`, or `false` (default). If you want to use a claims resolver in the technical profile, set this metadata to `true`.
ContentDefinitionReferenceId	No	The identifier of the content definition associated with this technical profile. The content definition metadata is required for FormatLocalizedString, GetLocalizedStringsTransformation, and GetMappedValueFromLocalizedCollection claims transformations.

Use a validation technical profile

A claims transformation technical profile can be used to validate information. In the following example, the self asserted technical profile named LocalAccountSignUpWithLogonEmail asks the user to enter the email twice, then calls the validation technical profile named Validate-Email to validate the emails. The Validate-Email technical profile calls the claims transformation AssertEmailAreEqual to compare the two claims email and emailRepeat, and throw an exception if they are not equal according to the specified comparison.

<ClaimsTransformations>
  <ClaimsTransformation Id="AssertEmailAreEqual" TransformationMethod="AssertStringClaimsAreEqual">
    <InputClaims>
      <InputClaim ClaimTypeReferenceId="email" TransformationClaimType="inputClaim1" />
      <InputClaim ClaimTypeReferenceId="emailRepeat" TransformationClaimType="inputClaim2" />
    </InputClaims>
    <InputParameters>
      <InputParameter Id="stringComparison" DataType="string" Value="ordinalIgnoreCase" />
    </InputParameters>
  </ClaimsTransformation>
</ClaimsTransformations>

The claims transformation technical profile calls the AssertEmailAreEqual claims transformation, which asserts that emails provided by the user are same.

<TechnicalProfile Id="Validate-Email">
  <DisplayName>Unlink Facebook</DisplayName>
  <Protocol Name="Proprietary" Handler="Web.TPEngine.Providers.ClaimsTransformationProtocolProvider, Web.TPEngine, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null" />
  <InputClaims>
    <InputClaim ClaimTypeReferenceId="emailRepeat" />
  </InputClaims>
  <OutputClaims>
    <OutputClaim ClaimTypeReferenceId="email" />
  </OutputClaims>
  <OutputClaimsTransformations>
    <OutputClaimsTransformation ReferenceId="AssertEmailAreEqual" />
  </OutputClaimsTransformations>
  <UseTechnicalProfileForSessionManagement ReferenceId="SM-Noop" />
</TechnicalProfile>

A self-asserted technical profile can call the validation technical profile and show the error message as specified in the UserMessageIfClaimsTransformationStringsAreNotEqual metadata.

<TechnicalProfile Id="LocalAccountSignUpWithLogonEmail">
  <DisplayName>User ID signup</DisplayName>
  <Protocol Name="Proprietary" Handler="Web.TPEngine.Providers.SelfAssertedAttributeProvider, Web.TPEngine, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null" />
  <Metadata>
    ...
    <Item Key="UserMessageIfClaimsTransformationStringsAreNotEqual">The email addresses you provided are not the same</Item>
  </Metadata>
  <OutputClaims>
    <OutputClaim ClaimTypeReferenceId="email" />
    <OutputClaim ClaimTypeReferenceId="emailRepeat" />
    ...
  </OutputClaims>
  <ValidationTechnicalProfiles>
    <ValidationTechnicalProfile ReferenceId="Validate-Email" />
  </ValidationTechnicalProfiles>
</TechnicalProfile>
