Introduction

With this portlet it’s possible to create a policy to deny access to services in the current context.

Below it is shown the overall layout of the Auth Portlet

Every policy is consisting of:

1. one or more Caller
2. Service
3. Access

The caller can be an User, a Role or a Service and you can insert one or more callers for each policy.

(The insertion of a policy with more callers results as more policy).

The service is specified as service class, service name and service id.

The access that we want to deny can be:

• All
• Access
• Delete
• Execute
• Write

Insert/Modify a Policy

For insert a policy we can add one or more Caller, one service and access type.

The insertion of a caller can be made with an autocomplete writing in the input, or clicking the button Add User role or add service, that opens a pop-up to insert more things.

We can create a policy that inserts all users or all role with the specific button “All Users” or “All Role”

The insertion of a caller can be made with complete input text , or clicking button “Add User/ Role” or “Add Service” to open a pop up for multiple entry.

The insertion with an autocomplete can be made with the insertion of a first controlled character:

• if you insert a user, you can digit @ for see all users
• if you insert a role, you can digit # for see all roles
• if you want insert a service, you can digit $ for see all the services.

The selection of the service and the access type It’s done with a selected dropdown

We can insert a policy that allows the use of a service only to one or more caller, selecting the combination ALL Users/All role and Except.

In this case, the callers, entered in input text, are enabled to access a service.

For an existing policy, you can change only the service and the access type.

Search a Policy

It Is possible search, filter and group by all policy.

If we want to search a caller, we can digit @ before inserting a name of the caller.

If we want to search a service, we can digit $ before inserting a name of the service.

And finally if we want to search an access, we can digit * before inserting a type of an access.

The filter can be incremental.

Over the filter we can organize a policy in caller type, for example user, role and service

Delete a Policy

It’s possible to delete one or more policies simply clicking on the delete button.
