Hi Ruwan,
I need a byte-accurate representation of the body because my
requirement is to validate the message authenticity using a keyed-hash
message authentication code.
For example, a client would sign the request by placing a value in the
header that is the result of hashing the request body along with a
shared secret key. In order to create a mediator that can accurately
reproduce the keyed-hash message authentication code, the server must
have the same bytes from the request as the client, not a
representation of it.
Given that, it sounds like I should access the data handler as I would
a binary message. How do I do that in Synapse?
Thanks,
Garth
