Description
-
The connector blocks incoming RESTful API requests that fail schema validation against the given JSON schema.
-
The connector also blocks incoming API requests based on the configured
max_payload_size. If the incoming request payload exceeds the configuredpayload-max-size, the API request is blocked, and the connector returns an error message. -
The connector validates JSON response against the JSON schema, and if it fails, it blocks the response and responds with an error message.
-
The connector also blocks responses from the backend based on
max_payload_size. If the response payload exceeds the configuredpayload-max-size, the connector returns an error message. -
Supports pre-processing of API request and post-processing of backend server response.
