In the message flow, we want to call exteranl webservice with user/password as part of the message

The user/password credential is set with mqsisetdbparms

We use the SecurityProfile for identity propagation, actually we got it working for the standard WS-Security. When we made the service call, the user/password were retrieved and filled in the WS header automatically.

Our current requirment is:
We want to fill in the user/password to our customized fields instead of standard WS-Security.

As what I searched, the WS Policy Sets and Bindlings editor does not give chance to specify customized field

My questions is: Is this possible?

Could you explain more about this "requirement"? What is the purpose, what happens on the receiving side?

I think any solution which revolves around sending the username and password in the message body is bound to be flawed.

That being said, I have seen in one particular context code retrieving the password from a secure encrypted file with GPG and decrypted at runtime to send it over.
You could possibly also get it from a security identity via the mqsireportdbparms via the use of IBM Integration API.

I'm not entirely sure about which of these are worse and if I were you, I would push for some standardized authentication/authorization.

Yes, it is possible to specify custom fields for user/password credentials instead of using the standard WS-Security in your message flow.

You can use the Compute node to create a custom SOAP header with the user/password credentials and then attach it to your message before sending it to the external web service. You can use the MQSI_SET_SOAP_HEADER function to set the custom header values.

In addition, you can also use the HTTPRequest node to create a custom HTTP header with the user/password credentials and attach it to your message before sending it to the external web service. You can use the MQSI_SET_HTTP_REQUEST_HEADER function to set the custom header values.
