Add Basic Authentication to a Service or a Route with username and password protection. The plugin will check for valid credentials in the Proxy-Authorization
and Authorization
header (in this order).Note: The functionality of this plugin as bundled with versions of Kong prior to 0.14.0 and Kong Enterprise prior to 0.34 differs from what is documented herein. Refer to the CHANGELOG for details.
PermalinkConfiguration Reference
You can configure this plugin using the Kong Admin API or through declarative configuration, which involves directly editing the Kong configuration file.
This plugin is compatible with requests with the following protocols:
http
https
grpc
grpcs
This plugin is partially compatible with DB-less mode.
In DB-less mode, Kong does not have an Admin API. If using this mode, configure the plugin using declarative configuration.
Consumers and Credentials can be created with declarative configuration.
Admin API endpoints which do POST, PUT, PATCH or DELETE on Credentials are not available on DB-less mode.
PermalinkEnabling the plugin on a Service
Kong Admin APIKubernetesDeclarative (YAML)
For example, configure this plugin on a Service by making the following request:
<service>
is the id
or name
of the Service that this plugin configuration will target.
PermalinkEnabling the plugin on a Route
Kong Admin APIKubernetesDeclarative (YAML)
For example, configure this plugin on a Route with:
<route>
is the id
or name
of the Route that this plugin configuration will target.
PermalinkEnabling the plugin globally
A plugin which is not associated to any Service, Route, or Consumer is considered global, and will be run on every request. Read the Plugin Reference and the Plugin Precedence sections for more information.Kong Admin APIKubernetesDeclarative (YAML)
For example, configure this plugin globally with:
PermalinkParameters
Here's a list of all the parameters which can be used in this plugin's configuration:
Form Parameter
Description
name
Type: string
The name of the plugin to use, in this case basic-auth
.
service.id
Type: string
The ID of the Service the plugin targets.
route.id
Type: string
The ID of the Route the plugin targets.
enabled
Type: boolean
Default value: true
Whether this plugin will be applied.
config.hide_credentials
optional
Type: boolean
Default value: false
An optional boolean value telling the plugin to show or hide the credential from the upstream service. If true
, the plugin will strip the credential from the request (i.e. the Authorization
header) before proxying it.
config.anonymous
optional
Type: string
An optional string (consumer uuid) value to use as an “anonymous” consumer if authentication fails. If empty (default), the request will fail with an authentication failure 4xx
. Please note that this value must refer to the Consumer id
attribute which is internal to Kong, and not its custom_id
.
Once applied, any user with a valid credential can access the Service. To restrict usage to only some of the authenticated users, also add the ACL plugin (not covered here) and create allowed or denied groups of users.
PermalinkUsage
In order to use the plugin, you first need to create a Consumer to associate one or more credentials to. The Consumer represents a developer or an application consuming the upstream service.
PermalinkCreate a Consumer
You need to associate a credential to an existing Consumer object. A Consumer can have many credentials.
With a Database
To create a Consumer, you can execute the following request:
Without a Database
Your declarative configuration file will need to have one or more Consumers. You can create them on the consumers:
yaml section:
In both cases, the parameters are as described below:
parameter
description
username
semi-optional
The username of the consumer. Either this field or custom_id
must be specified.
custom_id
semi-optional
A custom identifier used to map the consumer to another database. Either this field or username
must be specified.
If you are also using the ACL plugin and allow lists with this service, you must add the new consumer to the allowed group. See ACL: Associating Consumers for details.
PermalinkCreate a Credential
With a Database
You can provision new username/password credentials by making the following HTTP request:
Without a Database
You can add credentials on your declarative config file on the basicauth_credentials
yaml entry:
In both cases, the fields / parameters work as described below:
field/parameter
description
{consumer}
The id
or username
property of the Consumer entity to associate the credentials to.
username
The username to use in the Basic Authentication
password
optional
The password to use in the Basic Authentication
PermalinkUsing the Credential
The authorization header must be base64 encoded. For example, if the credential uses Aladdin
as the username and OpenSesame
as the password, then the field’s value is the base64-encoding of Aladdin:OpenSesame
, or QWxhZGRpbjpPcGVuU2VzYW1l
.
Then the Authorization
(or Proxy-Authorization
) header must appear as:
Simply make a request with the header:
gRPC clients are supported too:
PermalinkUpstream Headers
When a client has been authenticated, the plugin will append some headers to the request before proxying it to the upstream service, so that you can identify the Consumer in your code:
X-Consumer-ID
, the ID of the Consumer on KongX-Consumer-Custom-ID
, thecustom_id
of the Consumer (if set)X-Consumer-Username
, theusername
of the Consumer (if set)X-Credential-Identifier
, the identifier of the Credential (only if the consumer is not the ‘anonymous’ consumer)X-Anonymous-Consumer
, will be set totrue
when authentication failed, and the ‘anonymous’ consumer was set instead.
You can use this information on your side to implement additional logic. You can use the X-Consumer-ID
value to query the Kong Admin API and retrieve more information about the Consumer.Note:`X-Credential-Username` was deprecated in favor of `X-Credential-Identifier` in Kong 2.1.
PermalinkPaginate through the basic-auth Credentials
Note: This endpoint was introduced in Kong 0.11.2.
You can paginate through the basic-auth Credentials for all Consumers using the following request:
You can filter the list by consumer by using this other path:
username or id
: The username or id of the consumer whose credentials need to be listed
PermalinkRetrieve the Consumer associated with a Credential
Note: This endpoint was introduced in Kong 0.11.2.
It is possible to retrieve a Consumer associated with a basic-auth Credential using the following request:
username or id
: The id
or username
property of the basic-auth Credential for which to get the associated Consumer. Note that the username
accepted here is not the username
property of a Consumer.
