Introduction

This solution provides an Adobe AIR based Identity Selector that runs on the local machine. It requires hosted I-Card component for I-Card management and Higgins Selector Selector components to interact with the browser.

How it works

  1. When user submits an info-card form in the browser, the browser extension intercepts the action, collect the policy string, and sends the string to [Higgins Selector Selector]. [Higgins Selector Selector] invokes the [Adobe AIR-based Selector] using the [Connector for Adobe AIR Selector].
  2. [Adobe AIR-based Selector] communicates to hosted I-Card service and shows I-Card Selector UI
  3. User selects an I-Card and clicks "Send this card" button
  4. [Adobe AIR-based Selector] gets security token for the selected I-Card from hosted I-Card service and sends token to [Higgins Selector Selector]
  5. Browser extension retrieves token from [Higgins Selector Selector]
  6. Browser extension submits token to RP
