Form Fill Policy
The following Form Fill policy was created for the mylogin form. The policy is called Form_Fill. You can use the name of the policy to find entries for it in the log files. The policy was assigned to the /identity/forms/simple.html protected resource. Because the URL path identifies a specific file on the web server, the policy does not require any CGI or page matching criteria.
Figure 33-11 The Form Fill Policy for the mylogin Form
This policy is configured so that the user never sees the form. Even on first login, the form is filled in for authenticated users because the user’s authentication credentials are used for the username and password fields, and the title field value is obtained from the LDAP user store. If the user does not have a value for the title attribute, the user sees the form every time the page is accessed. If you want the value to be saved for these users, you need to change the policy to use a secret store rather than an LDAP attribute.
