Errors with Resource Adapter with data source as "http header"

Question

hi Team,
The objective was to create a ResourceAdapter that will get accountid from http-header and automatically log me in. More like Siteminder, Tivoli Access Mgr.
In the adapter's "prototype.xml", I added this line.
"<AuthnProperty name='sauid' displayName='UserID in From Browser' formFieldType='text' isId='true' dataSource='http header'/>
I enable pass-through authn for "user-interface" app.
My test passes, when I login to "/idm/user". I am not prompted for uid/pwd instead I am
transparently logged and presented with self-service page, aka single-sign-on. so far so good.
But, I have an issue when when I login to /idm (not /idm/user) as configurator and then try to create a new user.....I donot see the set password fields in modify.jsp. This issue is only apparent if I set enable pass-through for user-interface. If I reset the user interface to default, which is userid/pwd, then I do see set-password-fields in modify.jsp.
Any leads on why this could be happening?

Hi Asam,
If we want to create a parameter depend on another dataset, we can additional create or add the dataset, embedded or shared, that has a query that contains query variables. Then use the option that “Get values from a
query” to get available values. For more details, please see:http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd283107.aspx
