Day 4: API-First Authorization
Define and enforce API authorization policies seamlessly using OpenAPI specifications and Permit.io’s CLI, ensuring smooth integration with your API architecture.
Description:
APIs serve as the cornerstone of modern applications and require a reliable way to implement consistent authorization across endpoints.
With Permit.io’s CLI, developers can define API access controls directly from their OpenAPI specifications or URL-based mappings, ensuring proper integration with their existing API architecture.
On this day, we explore how developers can:
Generate policies from OpenAPI specifications – Automatically create policy schemas based on your API structure.
Use OpenAPI
-xExtensions for Policy Configuration – Define access control rules directly within OpenAPI specifications.Leverage URL-based permissions – Map API endpoints to policies using simple configurations and FastAPI decorators.
Permit.io’s CLI provides a developer-friendly way to align authorization logic with API design, removing the need for manual policy configurations and ensuring access control remains consistent across API-driven applications.
