Access Control - API

When access control for Axon Server is enabled, you'll need to provide user credentials or a token. The UI uses username and password to establish a session, while the CLI can use a token. If you are using tools such as "curl", or have coded your own tool to access the REST API, you'll need to do this also. The gRPC APIs do not accept user credentials, but always expect a token. Note that the internal API (by default on port 8224) will only accept the "internal-token", while the client API (by default on port 8124) will only accept application tokens.
Passing User Credentials to the REST API
Axon Server expects user credentials using the Basic Authentication method. For example, to list the contexts with "curl" using user account "user" with password "password", you would use:
$ curl -u user:password http://localhost:8024/v1/public/context | jq
[
  {
    "changePending": false,
    "leader": null,
    "pendingSince": 0,
    "metaData": {
      "event.index-format": "JUMP_SKIP_INDEX",
      "snapshot.index-format": "JUMP_SKIP_INDEX"
    },
    "roles": [
      {
        "role": "PRIMARY",
        "node": "node-1"
      },
      {
        "role": "PRIMARY",
        "node": "node-2"
      },
      {
        "role": "PRIMARY",
        "node": "node-3"
      }
    ],
    "replicationGroup": "_admin",
    "context": "_admin"
  },
  {
    "changePending": false,
    "leader": null,
    "pendingSince": 0,
    "metaData": {
      "event.index-format": "JUMP_SKIP_INDEX",
      "snapshot.index-format": "JUMP_SKIP_INDEX"
    },
    "roles": [
      {
        "role": "PRIMARY",
        "node": "node-1"
      },
      {
        "role": "PRIMARY",
        "node": "node-2"
      },
      {
        "role": "PRIMARY",
        "node": "node-3"
      }
    ],
    "replicationGroup": "default",
    "context": "default"
  }
]
Passing a Token to the REST and gRPC APIs
To pass a token to the REST and gRPC APIs, you must add the "AxonIQ-Access-Token" header, with the token as value. For example, when using "curl" as in the previous section, but now with a token instead of user credentials:
$ curl -H 'AxonIQ-Access-Token: cfd7304a-950e-4e32-86ba-5ecb2c4d23ec' https://localhost:8024/v1/public/context | jq
