Attach a Policy

You can attach a policy to the Request, Response, or Error flow of the REST API Proxy as follows:

1. Sign in to the Choreo Console at https://console.choreo.dev.
2. From the component list, select and click on the REST API Proxy component to which you want to attach the policy(s).
3. In the left navigation menu, click Develop and then click Policies.
4. From the list of resources, expand the resource to which you want to attach the policy(s).

5. Click Attach Policy for the relevant flow (i.e., Request, Response, or Error) to which you want to attach the policy.

   

6. From the Policy List panel on the right-hand side, select the policy you want to apply and click Add.

   

7. Click Save.

Configuring the policy to accept environment-specific parameters

You can use policies that enable users to enter custom parameters and values. For example, Add Header policy requires the user to enter a header name and value when deploying the REST API Proxy. These parameters can be static values or environment-specific values.

To add environment-specific values and policy parameters, follow the steps given below::

1. Sign in to the Choreo Console at https://console.choreo.dev.
2. From the component list, select and click on the REST API Proxy component to which you want to attach policies.
3. In the left navigation menu, click Develop and then click Policies.
4. From the list of resources, expand the resource to which you want to attach the policy(s).
5. Click Attach Policy for the relevant flow (i.e., Request, Response, or Error) to which you want to attach the policy.

6. Add a policy that enables you to accept custom parameters and values from users. For example, the Add Header policy.

   

7. Enter values for the required policy parameters when prompted. If you want to make a parameter a configurable variable, enter the value in ${<variableName>} format. For example, ${name}.

   

8. Click Add and then click Save.

9. To deploy the component, from the left navigation menu, click Deploy and then click Config & Deploy. When the interceptor application generation step is complete, you can provide the configurations.

10. When prompted, provide the value and click Save & Deploy.
