Data Adapter

Data Adapter integrates Web Flow with other backends required for the authentication process.

You can obtain the war file which can be deployed to a Java EE container in releases.

The Data Adapter needs to be customized for each deployment. You can find the documentation for customizing Data Adapter in the Web Flow Customization project.
