Authorization Definition Composite Payload


The collection of secondary Authorization Definitions that will be activated from either a Design-Time Composite or Run-Time Composite Authorization Definition is a "payload". Payloads only apply to these two types.

For both types of payload, each of the Authorization Definitions contained inside are called a "leaf" Authorization Definitions. You can view both types of composites as a "tree" with only one level of branches, but an arbitrary number of them. Each branch, points to an individual leaf Authorization Definition. All of the leaves together form the entire payload of a Composite Authorization Definition.
