REST API

ORY Oathkeeper is a reverse proxy that checks the HTTP Authorization for validity against a set of rules. This service uses Hydra to validate access tokens and policies.

You are viewing REST API documentation. This documentation is auto-generated from a swagger specification which itself is generated from annotations in the source code of the project. It is possible that this documentation includes bugs and that code samples are incomplete or wrong.
If you find issues in the respective documentation, please do not edit the Markdown files directly (as they are generated) but raise an issue on the project's GitHub presence instead. This documentation will improve over time with your help! If you have ideas how to improve this part of the documentation, feel free to share them in a GitHub issue any time.

Access Control Decision API

GET /decisions HTTP/1.1
Accept: application/json

This endpoint works with all HTTP Methods (GET, POST, PUT, ...) and matches every path prefixed with /decision.

This endpoint mirrors the proxy capability of ORY Oathkeeper's proxy functionality but instead of forwarding the request to the upstream server, returns 200 (request should be allowed), 401 (unauthorized), or 403 (forbidden) status codes. This endpoint can be used to integrate with other API Proxies like Ambassador, Kong, Envoy, and many more.

List all rules

GET /rules HTTP/1.1
Accept: application/json

This method returns an array of all rules that are stored in the backend. This is useful if you want to get a full view of what rules you have currently in place.

##### Parameters

Parameter	In	Type	Required	Description
limit	query	integer(int64)	false	The maximum amount of rules returned.
offset	query	integer(int64)	false	The offset from where to start looking.

##### Response Schema

Name	Type	Required	Restrictions	Description
anonymous	[rule]	false	none	none
» swaggerRule is a single rule that will get checked on every HTTP request.	rule	false	none	none
»» authenticators	[ruleHandler]	false	none	Authenticators is a list of authentication handlers that will try and authenticate the provided credentials. Authenticators are checked iteratively from index 0 to n and if the first authenticator to return a positive result will be the one used. If you want the rule to first check a specific authenticator before "falling back" to others, have that authenticator as the first item in the array.
»»» config	object	false	none	Config contains the configuration for the handler. Please read the user guide for a complete list of each handler's available settings.
»»» handler	string	false	none	Handler identifies the implementation which will be used to handle this specific request. Please read the user guide for a complete list of available handlers.
»» authorizer	ruleHandler	false	none	none
»» description	string	false	none	Description is a human readable description of this rule.
»» id	string	false	none	ID is the unique id of the rule. It can be at most 190 characters long, but the layout of the ID is up to you. You will need this ID later on to update or delete the rule.
»» match	ruleMatch	false	none	none
»»» methods	[string]	false	none	An array of HTTP methods (e.g. GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, ...). When ORY Oathkeeper searches for rules to decide what to do with an incoming request to the proxy server, it compares the HTTP method of the incoming request with the HTTP methods of each rules. If a match is found, the rule is considered a partial match. If the matchesUrl field is satisfied as well, the rule is considered a full match.
»»» url	string	false	none	This field represents the URL pattern this rule matches. When ORY Oathkeeper searches for rules to decide what to do with an incoming request to the proxy server, it compares the full request URL (e.g. https://mydomain.com/api/resource) without query parameters of the incoming request with this field. If a match is found, the rule is considered a partial match. If the matchesMethods field is satisfied as well, the rule is considered a full match. You can use regular expressions in this field to match more than one url. Regular expressions are encapsulated in brackets < and >. The following example matches all paths of the domain `mydomain.com`: `https://mydomain.com/<.*>`.
»» mutators	[ruleHandler]	false	none	Mutators is a list of mutation handlers that transform the HTTP request. A common use case is generating a new set of credentials (e.g. JWT) which then will be forwarded to the upstream server. Mutations are performed iteratively from index 0 to n and should all succeed in order for the HTTP request to be forwarded.
»» upstream	Upstream	false	none	none
»»» preserve_host	boolean	false	none	PreserveHost, if false (the default), tells ORY Oathkeeper to set the upstream request's Host header to the hostname of the API's upstream's URL. Setting this flag to true instructs ORY Oathkeeper not to do so.
»»» strip_path	string	false	none	StripPath if set, replaces the provided path prefix when forwarding the requested URL to the upstream URL.
»»» url	string	false	none	URL is the URL the request will be proxied to.

## health

Check alive status

GET /health/alive HTTP/1.1
Accept: application/json

This endpoint returns a 200 status code when the HTTP server is up running. This status does currently not include checks whether the database connection is working.

If the service supports TLS Edge Termination, this endpoint does not require the X-Forwarded-Proto header to be set.

Be aware that if you are running multiple nodes of this service, the health status will never refer to the cluster state, only to a single instance.

Properties

Name	Type	Required	Restrictions	Description
alg	string	false	none	The "alg" (algorithm) parameter identifies the algorithm intended for use with the key. The values used should either be registered in the IANA "JSON Web Signature and Encryption Algorithms" registry established by [JWA] or be a value that contains a Collision- Resistant Name.
crv	string	false	none	none
d	string	false	none	none
dp	string	false	none	none
dq	string	false	none	none
e	string	false	none	none
k	string	false	none	none
kid	string	false	none	The "kid" (key ID) parameter is used to match a specific key. This is used, for instance, to choose among a set of keys within a JWK Set during key rollover. The structure of the "kid" value is unspecified. When "kid" values are used within a JWK Set, different keys within the JWK Set SHOULD use distinct "kid" values. (One example in which different keys might use the same "kid" value is if they have different "kty" (key type) values but are considered to be equivalent alternatives by the application using them.) The "kid" value is a case-sensitive string.
kty	string	false	none	The "kty" (key type) parameter identifies the cryptographic algorithm family used with the key, such as "RSA" or "EC". "kty" values should either be registered in the IANA "JSON Web Key Types" registry established by [JWA] or be a value that contains a Collision- Resistant Name. The "kty" value is a case-sensitive string.
n	string	false	none	none
p	string	false	none	none
q	string	false	none	none
qi	string	false	none	none
use	string	false	none	The "use" (public key use) parameter identifies the intended use of the public key. The "use" parameter is employed to indicate whether a public key is used for encrypting data or verifying the signature on data. Values are commonly "sig" (signature) or "enc" (encryption).
x	string	false	none	none
x5c	[string]	false	none	The "x5c" (X.509 certificate chain) parameter contains a chain of one or more PKIX certificates [RFC5280]. The certificate chain is represented as a JSON array of certificate value strings. Each string in the array is a base64-encoded (Section 4 of [RFC4648] -- not base64url-encoded) DER [ITU.X690.1994] PKIX certificate value. The PKIX certificate containing the key value MUST be the first certificate.
y	string	false	none	none

keys	[jsonWebKey]	false	none	The value of the "keys" parameter is an array of JWK values. By default, the order of the JWK values within the array does not imply an order of preference among them, although applications of JWK Sets can choose to assign a meaning to the order for their purposes, if desired.

swaggerRule is a single rule that will get checked on every HTTP request.

Properties

Name	Type	Required	Restrictions	Description
authenticators	[ruleHandler]	false	none	Authenticators is a list of authentication handlers that will try and authenticate the provided credentials. Authenticators are checked iteratively from index 0 to n and if the first authenticator to return a positive result will be the one used. If you want the rule to first check a specific authenticator before "falling back" to others, have that authenticator as the first item in the array.
authorizer	ruleHandler	false	none	none
description	string	false	none	Description is a human readable description of this rule.
id	string	false	none	ID is the unique id of the rule. It can be at most 190 characters long, but the layout of the ID is up to you. You will need this ID later on to update or delete the rule.
match	ruleMatch	false	none	none
mutators	[ruleHandler]	false	none	Mutators is a list of mutation handlers that transform the HTTP request. A common use case is generating a new set of credentials (e.g. JWT) which then will be forwarded to the upstream server. Mutations are performed iteratively from index 0 to n and should all succeed in order for the HTTP request to be forwarded.
upstream	Upstream	false	none	none

}

Properties

Name	Type	Required	Restrictions	Description
config	object	false	none	Config contains the configuration for the handler. Please read the user guide for a complete list of each handler's available settings.
handler	string	false	none	Handler identifies the implementation which will be used to handle this specific request. Please read the user guide for a complete list of available handlers.

ruleMatch#### ruleMatch

{
  "methods": [
    "string"
  ],
  "url": "string"
}

Properties

Name	Type	Required	Restrictions	Description
methods	[string]	false	none	An array of HTTP methods (e.g. GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, ...). When ORY Oathkeeper searches for rules to decide what to do with an incoming request to the proxy server, it compares the HTTP method of the incoming request with the HTTP methods of each rules. If a match is found, the rule is considered a partial match. If the matchesUrl field is satisfied as well, the rule is considered a full match.
url	string	false	none	This field represents the URL pattern this rule matches. When ORY Oathkeeper searches for rules to decide what to do with an incoming request to the proxy server, it compares the full request URL (e.g. https://mydomain.com/api/resource) without query parameters of the incoming request with this field. If a match is found, the rule is considered a partial match. If the matchesMethods field is satisfied as well, the rule is considered a full match. You can use regular expressions in this field to match more than one url. Regular expressions are encapsulated in brackets < and >. The following example matches all paths of the domain `mydomain.com`: `https://mydomain.com/<.*>`.
