# Namespace - HTTP API
|
|
|
|
<EnterpriseAlert />
|
|
|
|
The functionality described here is available only in
|
|
[Consul Enterprise](https://www.hashicorp.com/products/consul/) version 1.7.0 and later.
|
|
|
|
## Create a Namespace
|
|
|
|
This endpoint creates a new Namespace.
|
|
|
|
| Method | Path | Produces |
|
|
| ------ | ------------ | ------------------ |
|
|
| `PUT` | `/namespace` | `application/json` |
|
|
|
|
The table below shows this endpoint's support for
|
|
[blocking queries](/api/features/blocking),
|
|
[consistency modes](/api/features/consistency),
|
|
[agent caching](/api/features/caching), and
|
|
[required ACLs](/api#authentication).
|
|
|
|
| Blocking Queries | Consistency Modes | Agent Caching | ACL Required |
|
|
| ---------------- | ----------------- | ------------- | ---------------- |
|
|
| `NO` | `none` | `none` | `operator:write` |
|
|
|
|
The corresponding CLI command is [`consul namespace create`](/commands/namespace/create).
|
|
|
|
### Parameters
|
|
|
|
- `Name` `(string: <required>)` - The namespaces name. This must be a valid
|
|
DNS hostname label.
|
|
|
|
- `Description` `(string: "")` - Free form namespaces description.
|
|
|
|
- `ACLs` `(object: <optional>)` - ACL configurations for this namespace. Rules from
|
|
default policies and roles will be used only when there are no rules from directly linked
|
|
policies, roles and service identities that are for the target resource and segment.
|
|
Therefore if a directly linked policy grants read access to some resource and a
|
|
default policy grants write access, the effective access for the token will be read
|
|
due to the default policies not being checked. When there is no rule concerning
|
|
the resource in either the directly linked policies, roles and service identities
|
|
nor in those linked by the defaults, then the agents default policy configuration
|
|
will be used for making the enforcement decision.
|
|
|
|
- `PolicyDefaults` `(array<ACLLink>)` - This is the list of default policies
|
|
that should be applied to all tokens created in this namespace. The ACLLink
|
|
struct is an object with an "ID" and/or "Name" field to identify a policy.
|
|
When a name is used instead of an ID, Consul will resolve the name to an ID
|
|
and store that internally. The ACL token used in the API request
|
|
must have [`acl:write` access](/docs/security/acl/acl-rules#acl-resource-rules)
|
|
to the linked policy.
|
|
|
|
- `RoleDefaults` `(array<ACLLink>)` - This is the list of default roles
|
|
that should be applied to all tokens created in this namespace. The ACLLink
|
|
struct is an object with an "ID" and/or "Name" field to identify a policy.
|
|
When a name is used instead of an ID, Consul will resolve the name to an ID
|
|
and store that internally. The ACL token used in the API request
|
|
must have [`acl:write` access](/docs/security/acl/acl-rules#acl-resource-rules)
|
|
access to the linked role.
|
|
|
|
- `Meta` `(map<string|string>: <optional>)` - Specifies arbitrary KV metadata
|
|
to associate with the namespace.
|

|
|
| `PUT` | `/namespace/:name` | `application/json` |
|
|
|
|
The table below shows this endpoint's support for
|
|
[blocking queries](/api/features/blocking),
|
|
[consistency modes](/api/features/consistency),
|
|
[agent caching](/api/features/caching), and

|
### Parameters
|
|
|
|
- `Name` `(string: <optional>)` - The namespaces name. This must be a valid
|
|
DNS hostname label. If present in the payload it must match what was given
|
|
in the URL path.
|
|
|
|
- `Description` `(string: "")` - Free form namespaces description.
|
|
|
|
- `ACLs` `(object: <optional>)` - ACL configurations for this Namespace. Rules from
|
|
default policies and roles will be used only when there are no rules from directly linked
|
|
policies, roles and service identities that are for the target resource and segment.
|
|
Therefore if a directly linked policy grants read access to some resource and a
|
|
default policy grants write access, the effective access for the token will be read
|
|
due to the default policies not being checked. When there is no rule concerning
|
|
the resource in either the directly linked policies, roles and service identities
|
|
nor in those linked by the defaults, then the agents default policy configuration
|
|
will be used for making the enforcement decision.

|
|

|
|
struct is an object with an "ID" and/or "Name" field to identify a policy.
|
|
When a name is used instead of an ID, Consul will resolve the name to an ID
|
|
and store that internally. The ACL token used in the API request
|
|
must have [`acl:write` access](/docs/security/acl/acl-rules#acl-resource-rules)
|
|
to the linked policy.
|
|
|
|
- `RoleDefaults` `(array<ACLLink>)` - This is the list of default roles
|
|
that should be applied to all tokens created in this namespace. The ACLLink
|
|
struct is an object with an "ID" and/or "Name" field to identify a policy.
|
|
When a name is used instead of an ID, Consul will resolve the name to an ID

|
and store that internally. The ACL token used in the API request
|
|
must have [`acl:write` access](/docs/security/acl/acl-rules#acl-resource-rules)
|
|
to the linked role.
|
|
|
|
- `Meta` `(map<string|string>: <optional>)` - Specifies arbitrary KV metadata

## Delete a Namespace
|
|
|
|
This endpoint marks a Namespace for deletion. Once marked Consul will
|
|
deleted all the associated Namespaced data in the background. Only once
|
|
all associated data has been deleted will the Namespace actually disappear.
|
|
Until then, further reads can be performed on the namespace and a `DeletedAt`
|
|
field will now be populated with the timestamp of when the Namespace was
|
|
marked for deletion.
|
|
|
|
| Method | Path | Produces |
|
|
| -------- | ------------------ | -------- |
|
|
| `DELETE` | `/namespace/:name` | N/A |

|
|
|
|
### Parameters
|
|
