Boundary controller HTTP API

Auth Method Service

Lists all auth methods.

Query Parameters

scope_id string

The scope ID in which to list auth methods.

recursive boolean

Whether to recursively list auth methods in the provided scope's child scopes.

filter string

You can specify that the filter should only return items that match. Refer to filter expressions for more information.

list_token string

An opaque token that Boundary uses to continue an existing iteration or request updated items. If you do not specify a token, pagination starts from the beginning. To learn more about list pagination in Boundary, refer to list pagination.

page_size integer

The maximum size of a page in this iteration. If you do not set a page size, Boundary uses the configured default page size. If the page_size is greater than the default page size configured, Boundary truncates the page size to this number.

Creates a single auth method.

Body Parameters

scope_id string

The ID of the Scope of which this auth method is a part.

name string

Optional name for identification purposes.

description string

Optional user-set description for identification purposes.

version integer

Version is used in mutation requests, after the initial creation, to ensure this resource has not changed. The mutation will fail if the version does not match the latest known good version. Version is not required when you create an auth method.

type string

The auth method type.

attributes object

The attributes that are applicable for the specific auth method type. The schema of this field depends on the type of the auth method that you create want to create. For password auth methods, the parameters are:

{
  "min_login_name_length": "min_login_name_length",
  "min_password_length": "min_password_length"
}

For OIDC auth methods, the parameters are:

{
  "issuer": "issuer",
  "client_id": "client_id",
  "client_secret": "client_secret",
  "max_age": 3600,
  "signing_algorithms": [],
  "api_url_prefix": "api_url_prefix",
  "idp_ca_certs": [],
  "allowed_audiences": [],
  "claims_scopes": [],
  "account_claim_maps": [],
  "disable_discovered_config_validation": false,
  "prompts": []
}

For LDAP auth methods, the parameters are:

{
  "start_tls": false,
  "insecure_tls": false,
  "discover_dn": false,
  "anon_group_search": false,
  "upn_domain": "upn_domain",
  "urls": [],
  "user_dn": "user_dn",
  "user_attr": "user_attr",
  "user_filter": "user_filter",
  "enable_groups": false,
  "group_dn": "group_dn",
  "group_attr": "group_attr",
  "group_filter": "group_filter",
  "certificates": [],

  "use_token_groups": false,
  "account_attribute_maps": [],
  "maximum_page_size": 1000,
  "dereference_aliases": "never"
}

Authenticate a user to an scope and retrieve an authentication token.

Path Parameters

auth_method_id string Required

The ID of the auth method in the system that should be used for authentication.

Body Parameters

token_type string

This can be "cookie" or "token". If not provided, "token" will be used. "cookie" activates a split-cookie method where the token is split partially between http-only and regular cookies in order to keep it safe from rogue JS in the browser. Deprecated, use "type" instead.

type string

This can be "cookie" or "token". If not provided, "token" will be used. "cookie" activates a split-cookie method where the token is split partially between http-only and regular cookies in order to keep it safe from rogue JS in the browser.

attributes object

The attributes that are used to authenticate to the auth method. The schema of this field depends on the type of the auth method. For password auth methods, the parameters are:

{
  "login_name": "login_name",
  "password": "password"
}

For LDAP auth methods, the parameters are:

{
  "login_name": "login_name",
  "password": "password"
}

For OIDC auth methods, the parameters are:

{
  "roundtrip_payload": {}
}

OIDC authentication requires multiple calls to this endpoint. After the initial call and successful authentication, the OIDC provider must redirect the user to the callback command:

{
  "code": "code",
  "state": "state",
  "error": "error",
  "error_description": "error_description",
  "error_uri": "error_uri"
}

Once this has succeded, the issued auth token can be retrieved by using the token command:

{
  "token_id": "token_id_from_initial_response"
}
command string

The command to perform. One of "login", "callback", or "token".

Gets a single auth method.

Path Parameters

id string Required

ID of the auth method being requested.

Deletes an AuthMethod

Path Parameters

id string Required

The ID of the auth method to delete.

Path Parameters

id string Required

The ID of the auth method that should be updated

Body Parameters

scope_id string

The ID of the Scope of which this auth method is a part.

name string

Optional name for identification purposes.

description string

Optional user-set description for identification purposes.

version integer

Version is used in mutation requests, after the initial creation, to ensure this resource has not changed. The mutation will fail if the version does not match the latest known good version. Version is not required when you create an auth method.
