Usage Control Endpoints

Usage

The usage endpoint acts as a Policy Information Point (PIP) to deliver some information about the app itself represented in a json format. The information that can be retrieved from the app at this endpoint contains general information for use with a usage control app.

The following information can then be retrieved via this Policy Information Point:

  • AppName: The name of the app.
  • AppURI: The URI of the app or another identifier.
  • AppPurpose: The general purpose of an app.
  • AppActions: The superclass of a policy: Usage, Distribute, Execute.

For more information on the usage control endpoint or the usage control integration patterns take a look at the usage-control document configuration.
