  • For token extraction configuration, see Custom Rego-based Authentication.
  • For authentication injection configuration, see Injecting Authentication Credentials into Backend Request when using built-in Reverse Proxy.
• Support using request variables in spec.auth.types[].generator.rego to inject authentication credentials into backend requests. more details: Variables Available in Rego.
