Authorize User

Edit online

This policy authorizes incoming requests against a list of users, a list of groups, or users who belong to LDAP groups registered in webMethods API Gateway.

Note: LDAP groups cannot be authorized using the List of Groups configuration option. To authorize a user who belongs to an LDAP group, you must first create a team containing one or more LDAP groups and then authorize the user using List of Teams configuration option in this policy.

Use this policy in conjunction with an authentication policy (for example, Require HTTP Basic Authentication, Require WSS Username Token).

The table lists the parameters of this policy and how they are applied to authorize the incoming requests.
