# ACL Binding Rule HTTP API
|
|
|
|
-> **1.5.0+:** The binding rule APIs are available in Consul versions 1.5.0 and newer.
|
|
|
|
The `/acl/binding-rule` endpoints [create](#create-a-binding-rule),
|
|
[read](#read-a-binding-rule), [update](#update-a-binding-rule),
|
|
[list](#list-binding-rules) and [delete](#delete-a-binding-rule) ACL binding
|
|
rules in Consul.
|
|
|
|
For more information on how to setup ACLs, please check
|
|
the [ACL tutorial](https://learn.hashicorp.com/tutorials/consul/access-control-setup-production).
|
|
|
|
## Create a Binding Rule
|
|
|
|
This endpoint creates a new ACL binding rule.
|
|
|
|
| Method | Path | Produces |
|
|
| ------ | ------------------- | ------------------ |
|
|
| `PUT` | `/acl/binding-rule` | `application/json` |
|
|
|
|
The table below shows this endpoint's support for
|
|
[blocking queries](/api-docs/features/blocking),
|
|
[consistency modes](/api-docs/features/consistency),
|
|
[agent caching](/api-docs/features/caching), and
|
|
[required ACLs](/api-docs#authentication).
|
|
|
|
| Blocking Queries | Consistency Modes | Agent Caching | ACL Required |
|
|
| ---------------- | ----------------- | ------------- | ------------ |
|
|
| `NO` | `none` | `none` | `acl:write` |
|
|
|
|
The corresponding CLI command is [`consul acl binding-rule create`](/commands/acl/binding-rule/create).
|
|
|
|
### Query Parameters
|
|
|
|
- `ns` `(string: "")` <EnterpriseAlert inline /> - Specifies the namespace of the binding rule you create.
|
|
You can also [specify the namespace through other methods](#methods-to-specify-namespace).
|
|
|
|
### JSON Request Body Schema
|
|
|
|
- `Description` `(string: "")` - Free form human readable description of the binding rule.
|
|
|
|
- `AuthMethod` `(string: <required>)` - The name of the auth method that this
|
|
rule applies to. This field is immutable.
|
|
|
|
- `Selector` `(string: "")` - Specifies the expression used to match this rule
|
|
against valid identities returned from an auth method validation. If empty
|
|
this binding rule matches all valid identities returned from the auth method. For example:
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
serviceaccount.namespace==default and serviceaccount.name!=vault
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
- `BindType` `(string: <required>)` - Specifies the way the binding rule
|
|
affects a token created at login.
|
|
|
|
- `BindType=service` - The computed bind name value is used as an
|
|
`ACLServiceIdentity.ServiceName` field in the token that is created.
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{ ...other fields...
|
|
"ServiceIdentities": [
|
|
{ "ServiceName": "<computed BindName>" }
|
|
]
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
- `BindType=node` - The computed bind name value is used as an
|
|
`ACLNodeIdentity.NodeName` field in the token that is created.
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{ ...other fields...
|
|
"NodeIdentities": [
|
|
{ "NodeName": "<computed BindName>", "Datacenter": "<local datacenter>" }
|
|
]
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
- `BindType=role` - The computed bind name value is used as a `RoleLink.Name`
|
|
field in the token that is created. This binding rule will only apply if a
|
|
role with the given name exists at login-time. If it does not then this
|
|
rule is ignored.
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{ ...other fields...
|
|
"Roles": [
|
|
{ "Name": "<computed BindName>" }
|
|
]
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
- `BindName` `(string: <required>)` - The name to bind to a token at
|
|
login-time. What it binds to can be adjusted with different values of the
|
|
`BindType` field. This can either be a plain string or lightly templated
|
|
using [HIL syntax](https://github.com/hashicorp/hil) to interpolate the same
|
|
values that are usable by the `Selector` syntax. For example:
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
prefixed-${serviceaccount.name}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
- `Namespace` `(string: "")` <EnterpriseAlert inline /> - Specifies the namespace of the binding rule you create.
|
|
This field takes precedence over the `ns` query parameter,
|
|
one of several [other methods to specify the namespace](#methods-to-specify-namespace).
|
|
|
|

## Methods to Specify Namespace <EnterpriseAlert inline />
|
|
|
|
Binding rule create, read, update, and delete endpoints
|
|
support several methods for specifying the namespace of the auth method resource
|
|
with the following order of precedence:
|
|
1. `Namespace` field of the JSON request body -
|
|
only applies to [create](#create-a-binding-rule) and [update](#update-a-binding-rule) endpoints
|
|
1. `ns` query parameter
|
|
1. `X-Consul-Namespace` request header
|
|
1. Namespace is inherited from the namespace of the request's ACL token (if any)
|
|
1. The `default` namespace
|
