If the application running the SDK requires a custom HTTP Client, to enable features such as configuring SSL or adding default headers to requests, then the TargetClient will need to be configured using ClientConfig.builder().httpClient():

Basic Custom HTTP Client Config

The SDK currently supports HTTP Clients that implement the org.apache.http.client.HttpClient interface.

Basic Implementaiton

CloseableHttpClient httpClient = HttpClients.custom().build();
ClientConfig clientConfig = ClientConfig.builder()
    .client("acmeclient")
    .organizationId("1234567890@AdobeOrg")
    .httpClient(httpClient)
    .build();
TargetClient targetClient = TargetClient.create(clientConfig);

Custom HTTP Client Config with SSL Configuration

Here is an example of how to configure SSL in the TargetClient by customizing the HttpClient passed into the ClientConfig. The following code snippet uses classes from the org.apache.http.conn.ssl package for SSL configuration.

SSL Implementaiton

SSLContext context = SSLContextBuilder.create().build();
SSLConnectionSocketFactory sslSocketFactory = new SSLConnectionSocketFactory(context);
CloseableHttpClient httpClient = HttpClients.custom().setSSLSocketFactory(sslSocketFactory).build();
ClientConfig clientConfig = ClientConfig.builder()
    .client("acmeclient")
    .organizationId("1234567890@AdobeOrg")
    .httpClient(httpClient)
    .build();
TargetClient targetClient = TargetClient.create(clientConfig);
