The Kodex API can use various authentication schemes and is
compatible with multiple external authentication providers. The
SaaS version of the API available at api.kiprotect.com
uses token-based authentication.
Role-Based Access Management
The Kodex API provides role-based access controls for all
objects. An API user belongs to one or more
organizations and has one or more
roles in those organizations. An API
object, for example a project, stream or data source
either belongs to, or is its own role object. Role
objects map specific object roles (that e.g. grant writing or
reading rights to an object) to organization roles. Hence, users
can access and work with objects based on their assigned
organization roles.
