Policies
========
Watcher's public API calls may be restricted to certain sets of users using a
policy configuration file. This document explains exactly how policies are
configured and what they apply to.
A policy is composed of a set of rules that are used in determining if a
particular action may be performed by the authorized tenant.
Constructing a Policy Configuration File
----------------------------------------
A policy configuration file is a simply JSON object that contain sets of
rules. Each top-level key is the name of a rule. Each rule
is a string that describes an action that may be performed in the Watcher API.
The actions that may have a rule enforced on them are:
* ``strategy:get_all``, ``strategy:detail`` - List available strategies
* ``GET /v1/strategies``
* ``GET /v1/strategies/detail``
* ``strategy:get`` - Retrieve a specific strategy entity
* ``GET /v1/strategies/<STRATEGY_UUID>``
* ``GET /v1/strategies/<STRATEGY_NAME>``
* ``goal:get_all``, ``goal:detail`` - List available goals
* ``GET /v1/goals``
* ``GET /v1/goals/detail``
* ``goal:get`` - Retrieve a specific goal entity
* ``GET /v1/goals/<GOAL_UUID>``
* ``GET /v1/goals/<GOAL_NAME>``
* ``audit_template:get_all``, ``audit_template:detail`` - List available
audit_templates
* ``GET /v1/audit_templates``
* ``GET /v1/audit_templates/detail``
* ``audit_template:get`` - Retrieve a specific audit template entity
* ``GET /v1/audit_templates/<AUDIT_TEMPLATE_UUID>``
* ``GET /v1/audit_templates/<AUDIT_TEMPLATE_NAME>``
* ``audit_template:create`` - Create an audit template entity
* ``POST /v1/audit_templates``
* ``audit_template:delete`` - Delete an audit template entity
* ``DELETE /v1/audit_templates/<AUDIT_TEMPLATE_UUID>``
* ``DELETE /v1/audit_templates/<AUDIT_TEMPLATE_NAME>``
* ``audit_template:update`` - Update an audit template entity
* ``PATCH /v1/audit_templates/<AUDIT_TEMPLATE_UUID>``
* ``PATCH /v1/audit_templates/<AUDIT_TEMPLATE_NAME>``
* ``audit:get_all``, ``audit:detail`` - List available audits
* ``GET /v1/audits``
* ``GET /v1/audits/detail``
* ``audit:get`` - Retrieve a specific audit entity
* ``GET /v1/audits/<AUDIT_UUID>``
* ``audit:create`` - Create an audit entity
* ``POST /v1/audits``
* ``audit:delete`` - Delete an audit entity
* ``DELETE /v1/audits/<AUDIT_UUID>``
* ``audit:update`` - Update an audit entity
* ``PATCH /v1/audits/<AUDIT_UUID>``
* ``action_plan:get_all``, ``action_plan:detail`` - List available action plans
* ``GET /v1/action_plans``
* ``GET /v1/action_plans/detail``
* ``action_plan:get`` - Retrieve a specific action plan entity
* ``GET /v1/action_plans/<ACTION_PLAN_UUID>``
* ``action_plan:delete`` - Delete an action plan entity
* ``DELETE /v1/action_plans/<ACTION_PLAN_UUID>``
* ``action_plan:update`` - Update an action plan entity
* ``PATCH /v1/audits/<ACTION_PLAN_UUID>``
* ``action:get_all``, ``action:detail`` - List available action
* ``GET /v1/actions``
* ``GET /v1/actions/detail``
* ``action:get`` - Retrieve a specific action plan entity
* ``GET /v1/actions/<ACTION_UUID>``
To limit an action to a particular role or roles, you list the roles like so ::
{
"audit:create": ["role:admin", "role:superuser"]
}
The above would add a rule that only allowed users that had roles of either
"admin" or "superuser" to launch an audit.
