Digital Signature

When returning the boarding pass document, one of the critical information is the bar code. To ensure that the data provided in the barcode has not been tampered with after boarding pass issuance, it is returned along with the digital signature.

Since the barcode details are sent by an airport system along with the boarding pass, Digital Connect Check-In does not sign that separately, and request already signed barcode when retrieving the boarding pass.

Configuration Reference

The following key is introduced to support this feature:

  • s4ci.feature.digitalSignature.enabled

For more details refer to the Configuration Index chapter.

Bar Code Enhancement for Image and Pectab Boarding Pass Formats

Currently, Digital Connect Check-In allows the consumer to either generate the boarding pass bar code or return the bar code retrieved directly from the airport services.
The bar code information appears as a separate field in the airport services, only on request for a BPXML format. In other formats this information is not exposed. 
Hence, Digital Connect Check-In allows to choose (by configuration) if the generated bar code should be overridden by an airport systems data, only for the BPXML format. For other formats, it is always generated automatically. 
Digital Connect Check-In retrieves the entire bar code which  appears as part of the PECTAB representation of the boarding pass.
Airport system returns the PECTAB when you request for both PECTAB and PNG formats of the boarding pass.

Limitations

Retrieving bar code from airport systems only for PECTAB and PNG formats.
