Sending custom OAuth 2.0 claims in Access Token Request from CICS

Right now we are able to call OAuth 2.0 secured APIs from a z/OS Connect requester in CICS, using the following guidelines: https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SS4SVW_3.0.0/securing/requester_oauth2.html

We can add client_id, client_secret and scopes (using the BAQ-OAUTH-SCOPE PL/I variable) to request for an access token from the authorization server using the client credentials flow.

We now have a need to also add other claims (on top of the scopes) to the Access Token Request, more specifically the 'resource' claim as described in https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc8707.

In short, we would like to be able to add extra custom claims to the Access Token Request (client credentials flow) from z/OS Connect in the same way we do it now from our PL/I CICS program for scopes.

    We also have the requirement for different content types and credential locations. We tried sending the credentials as header, and a body with additional claims for realm & auth_method, but the body was not sent in the request. It also defaulted the Content_type to application/json, and we have a requirement for other content types, for example: application/x-www-form-urlencoded.

    We utilize an in-house authorization server, which requires some custom claims be passed in. Examples of custom claims: “realm” and “auth_method”, so we have the need for a more generic approach.
