ContX IQ: With Person node as a subject, configure an advice step up in case of insufficient authentication (iat claim).
Link a user access token with existing captured data and verify the access token iat claim is less than an hour ago.
Use case
In this case, a Person node access token is sent and introspected to verify its iat (issuing time) claim and to return an advice to step up if it is too old.

Requirements
- ServiceAccount credentials created in the IndyKite Hub for your organization.
- AppAgent credentials created in the IndyKite Hub, using the REST endpoints or using Terraform for your Project / Application.
- Access token for a Person node with an iat (issued at) claim.
User Access tokens are sent in CIQ Execution in Headers: key:Authorization, value:Bearer token.
Steps
1. Using the AppAgent credential as API Key (name: X-IK-ClientKey), ingest data in your IKG (IndyKite Knowledge Graph) using the script provided.
2. Using the ServiceAccount credential as Bearer token, create a CIQ Policy which designates an advice step up if the access token iat claim is more than an hour ago.
3. Using the ServiceAccount credential as Bearer token, create a CIQ Query in the context of the policy to configure the step up advice.
4. Using the AppAgent credential as API Key (name: X-IK-ClientKey), run a CIQ Execution to trigger the step up advice.
