Workspaces Authorization¤
DataManager provides several types of authorization.
- js.config.workspaces
- id
- authorization
- type
- oauth2
- grantType
- authorizeUrl
- clientId
- tokenUrl
- clientSecret
- authorization
- id
If you want to use OAuth2, you need to set authorization.type
to oauth2
and specify further configuration parameters within the oauth2
parameter:
Property | Default | Required | Conflicts with | Valid values |
---|---|---|---|---|
js.config.workspaces[id].authorization.oauth2.grantType | none | yes, if authorization.type is oauth2 |
none | implicit or authorization_code |
Use this property to define the OAuth2 workflow. Depending on the chosen value you need to configure different properties:
implicit
:authorizeURL
andclientId
authorization_code
:authorizeUrl
,clientId
,tokenUrl
, and as optional propertyclientSecret
Info
It is recommended to use the implicit workflow, as DataManager is a client application.
Property | Default | Required | Conflicts with | Valid values |
---|---|---|---|---|
js.config.workspaces[id].authorization.oauth2.authorizeUrl | none | yes, if authorization.type is oauth2 |
none | string (URL) |
Use this property to define the authorization endpoint URL of the OAuth2 authorization server.
Property | Default | Required | Conflicts with | Valid values |
---|---|---|---|---|
js.config.workspaces[id].authorization.oauth2.clientId | none | yes, if authorization.type is oauth2 |
none | string |
Use this property to define the client identifier issued by the OAuth2 authorization server.
Property | Default | Required | Conflicts with | Valid values |
---|---|---|---|---|
js.config.workspaces[id].authorization.oauth2.tokenUrl | none | yes, ifauthorization.oauth2.grantType is ‘authorization_code‘ |
none | string (URL) |
Use this property to define the authorization token endpoint URL of the OAuth2 authorization server.
Info
This property is only needed for js.config.workspaces[id].authorization.oauth2.grantType=authorization_code
.
Property | Default | Required | Conflicts with | Valid values |
---|---|---|---|---|
js.config.workspaces[id].authorization.oauth2.clientSecret | none | yes, if authorization.oauth2.grantType is ‘authorization_code‘ |
none | string |
Use this property to define a passphrase for OAuth2 client authorization. Usually, this property is not required. It must only be set if the authorization server expects a client secret.
Configuration example¤
The two examples below show how a backend configuration can look like, for example for an eccenca DataPlatform using different authorization options.
DataPlatform configuration with anonymous access:
js.config.workspaces:
default:
name: 'Default Workspace (anonymous)'
authorization:
type: 'anonymous'
backend:
type: 'dataplatform'
url: 'https://<dataplatform_uri>'
endpointId: 'default'
DataPlatform configuration with implicit OAuth2 workflow:
js.config.workspaces:
default:
name: 'Default endpoint (oauth-implicit)'
authorization:
type: 'oauth2'
oauth2:
clientId: 'eldsClient'
grantType: 'implicit'
authorizeUrl: 'https://<dataplatform_uri>/oauth/authorize'
backend:
type: 'dataplatform'
url: 'https://<dataplatform_uri>'
endpointId: 'default'
DataPlatform with authorization code OAuth2 workflow:
js.config.workspaces:
default:
name: 'Default endpoint (oauth-implicit)'
authorization:
type: 'oauth2'
oauth2:
clientId: 'eldsClient'
grantType: 'authorization_code'
authorizeUrl: 'https://<dataplatform_uri>/oauth/authorize'
tokenUrl: 'https://<dataplatform_uri>/oauth/token'
clientSecret: 'secret'
backend:
type: 'dataplatform'
url: 'https://<dataplatform_uri>'
endpointId: 'default'
