Identification of web form parameters for an authorization engine
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method for automating the identification of web form parameters for an authorization engine, comprising:
- receiving a web page comprising a set of parameters;
processing the web page to identify a first structured portion of the web page;
performing parsing operations to identify a first set of structured portion parameters associated with the first structured portion of the web page;
processing the first set of structured portion parameters to generate a first policy comprising the first set of policy rule parameters, the first policy comprising an access policy;
providing the set of parameters to an authorization engine, the access policy being used by the authorization engine to approve access requests for resources;
associating a universal resource locator (URL) with the first policy, the URL corresponding to the web page;
processing a second set of structured portion parameters corresponding to the second structured portion of the web page to generate a second policy, the second policy comprising a second set of policy rule parameters; and
whereinthe authorization engine comprises a rules editor configured to perform editing operations on the first set of policy rule parameters.

Abstract
A method, system and computer-usable medium are disclosed for automating the identification of web form parameters for an authorization engine. A web page containing a set of parameters is received and then processed to identify structured portions it may contain. A target structured portion is then selected and processed to identify a corresponding set of web form parameters. Once identified, the set of web form parameters are then processed to generate a policy with a corresponding set of policy rule parameters. Matching operations are then performed to respectively match individual parameters of the set of web form parameters to individual parameters of the set of policy rule parameters. The policy is then associated with its associated web page URL and the process is repeated, proceeding with selecting another target structured portion to process.
