    • Method Detail

      • getAuthenticationProvider

        AuthenticationProvider getAuthenticationProvider()
        Returns the AuthenticationProvider that authenticated this user.
        Returns:
        The AuthenticationProvider that authenticated this user.
      • getCredentials

        Credentials getCredentials()
        Returns the credentials that the user provided when they successfully authenticated.
        Returns:
        The credentials provided by the user when they authenticated.
      • getEffectiveUserGroups

        Set<String> getEffectiveUserGroups()
        Returns a read-only set of the identifiers of all user groups which apply to this authenticated user. The exact semantics of what user groups apply are up to the implementation, and the user groups within this set may be implied, derived dynamically, inherited through multiple levels of group membership, etc. Note that, as with user identifiers, user group identifiers form the basis of identity which applies across authentication providers. It is expected that any two user groups having the same identifier represent the same group, even if defined by different authentication providers.
        Returns:
        A read-only set of the identifiers of all user groups which apply to this authenticated user.
      • invalidate

        void invalidate()
        Invalidates this authenticated user and their associated token such that they are no longer logged in. This function will be automatically invoked when the user logs out, or when their session expires.
