Authorization Service

The authorization service request messages used by external authorization network filter and HTTP filter.

service.auth.v2.CheckRequest

[service.auth.v2.CheckRequest proto]

{
  "attributes": "{...}"
}

attributes

(service.auth.v2.AttributeContext) The request attributes.

service.auth.v2.DeniedHttpResponse

[service.auth.v2.DeniedHttpResponse proto]

HTTP attributes for a denied response.

{
  "status": "{...}",
  "headers": [],
  "body": "..."
}

status

(type.HttpStatus, REQUIRED) This field allows the authorization service to send a HTTP response status code to the downstream client other than 403 (Forbidden).

headers

(core.HeaderValueOption) This field allows the authorization service to send HTTP response headers to the downstream client. Note that the append field in HeaderValueOption defaults to false when used in this message.

body

(string) This field allows the authorization service to send a response body data to the downstream client.

service.auth.v2.OkHttpResponse

[service.auth.v2.OkHttpResponse proto]

HTTP attributes for an ok response.

{
  "headers": []
}

headers

(core.HeaderValueOption) HTTP entity headers in addition to the original request headers. This allows the authorization service to append, to add or to override headers from the original request before dispatching it to the upstream. Note that the append field in HeaderValueOption defaults to false when used in this message. By setting the append field to true, the filter will append the correspondent header value to the matched request header. By leaving append as false, the filter will either add a new header, or override an existing one if there is a match.

service.auth.v2.CheckResponse

[service.auth.v2.CheckResponse proto]
