XACML PolicySet and Request with example

I am new in XACML.I am planing to implement RBAC in our organization applications using XACML policy and Wso2 ID server. I had read many articles on creating different different XACML policy using wso2 and I also try many policy example.but after go through all the available example I didn't find proper way to creating XACML policyset and reuest for policy set. I try it by my self to create XACML PolicySet but when I try to execute this policyset in wso2 Id server then it gives me 'not applicable' error every time.I try a lot for creating XACML policyset in different way but when i create request for that then it not gives me proper result. Help me to give proper example of XACML policyset and it's request.

Here I added my policyset and policy and also it's request. please let me know what was wrong in it.

Role Created in wso2Id is :- testRole and assign this role to testUser

PolicySet is :-

<PolicySet xmlns="urn:oasis:names:tc:xacml:3.0:core:schema:wd-17"  PolicyCombiningAlgId="urn:oasis:names:tc:xacml:3.0:policy-combining-algorithm:permit-overrides" PolicySetId="PolicySetExample" Version="1.0">

If you are using Policy Set with WSO2IS, Please note following.

  1. You need to publish both Policy Set policy and reference policies in to PDP.

  2. Then you need to enable the Policy Set in the PDP. You can keep the reference policies as disabled policies.

Please refer more detail from here as well

If you are going to implement RBAC and ABAC with WSO2 Identity Server, I recommnad for you to go through this to get more understanding.

I tested your policy using the Axiomatics Policy Server (see screenshot):

The Axiomatics Policy Administration Point

I then tested the policy set using our simulator:

enter image description here

I received Indeterminate back as a response. The root cause of the Indeterminate is that your Condition inside the Rule has a flag called MustBePresent set to true on the http://wso2.org/claims/role attribute and that for some reason the evaluation did not retrieve any values.

Simulation Result in the Axiomatics Policy Server

It seems like the WSO2 IS is not retrieving the values for the role attribute. You want to check your configuration w/in WSO2 IS. Alternatively, test out the Axiomatics Policy Server.
