How to read to the contents of "Authentication requirements" (Apache Sling Authentication Service) using code?

I have this code that reads the contents of the module above

ConfigurationAdmin configAdmin = getSlingScriptHelper().getService( ConfigurationAdmin.class );
Configuration conf = configAdmin.getConfiguration("org.apache.sling.engine.impl.auth.SlingAuthenticatorß");
            
@SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
Dictionary<String, Object> props = conf.getProperties();

I put at breakpoint (eclipse user here if it matters) on line 5 to inspect the value of props and conf variables. I've drilled down on the folder-like structure but I cannot find what I'm looking for.

When I view the service via

http://localhost:4502/system/console/configMgr/org.apache.sling.engine.impl.auth.SlingAuthenticator

I can see several values for "Authentication Requirements" (screenshot below). Any ideas on how to do it? Thanks

    Use below code

    Configuration conf = configAdmin.getConfiguration("org.apache.sling.engine.impl.auth.SlingAuthenticator"); String[] props = (String[]) conf.getProperties().get("sling.auth.requirements");

    for (String value : props) { logger.info("Value {}", value); }

    Thanks

      While edubey​'s approach is definitly working, the OSGI configuration properties of a service/component should be considered implementation details. You should not do that, as any subsequent version of the Sling authentication might change the configuration without further notice.

        What's your usecase which requires you to read these properties?
