Notes:

IUA Access Token

Provided an ITI-71 results in a PERMIT access token issued. That token would have the following residual element to inform the Consent Enforcement Point that it needs to restrict the results.

In this case there is no residual, as the Consent expresses that authorization be given only to a given Research organization for a given purpose of use. Possibly with scope restrictions based on other business rules, such as a subset of actions (CRUDE) and resources. No token would be issued by ITI-71 for users not a part of the Research organization, or requests by that organization that are not purpose FooBar.

  • The restriction to the given purpose (FooBar) would be expressed in the ihe_iua extension
    • The other ihe_iua extension parameters are not shown below
  • The consent is indicated in the ihe_pcf
    • no residual element is provided, indicating that no residual rules need be enforced
