[section:auth_props AUTH properties]
The last field in the Variable header of __AUTH__ packet is a set of Properties.
A set contains a Property Length followed by the Properties.
A Property consists of an Identifier and a value.
This section lists all possible __AUTH__ Properties and describes their usage:
[table:auth_props AUTH properties
[[Identifier] [Value type] [Description]]
[[authentication_method] [`std::string`] [A UTF-8 Encoded String containing the name of the authentication method used for extended authentication.]]
[[authentication_data] [`std::string`] [Binary Data containing authentication data. The contents of the data are defined by the authentication method.]]
[[reason_string] [`std::string`] [A UTF-8 Encoded String representing the reason associated with this response.]]
[[user_property] [`std::vector<std::string>`] [A list of name, value pairs (__UTF8_STRING_PAIR__) defining User Properties.
This property may be used to provide additional diagnostic or other information. ]]
]
[h4 Usage]
After obtaining an instance of `async_mqtt5::auth_props`, the subscript operator can be used to access a Property.
The Identifiers listed in the table above are available within the `async_mqtt5::prop` namespace for Property access.
[h4 Example]
The following example shows how to set a Property value:
[!c++]
async_mqtt5::auth_props props;
props[async_mqtt5::prop::authentication_method] = "SCRAM-SHA-1";
props[async_mqtt5::prop::authentication_data] = "data";
The following example shows how to retrieve a Property value:
[note When retrieving a property value, the subscript operator will consistently return a `std::optional` of the value type for all properties,
except for `async_mqtt5::prop::user_property`, where it will return an instance of its value type, `std::vector<std::string>`.]
[!c++]
std::optional<std::string> auth_data = props[async_mqtt5::prop::authentication_data];
if (auth_data.has_value())
// authentication data property was previously set
else
// authentication data property was not set
