docs: introduce versioned docs and migrate to fuma (#11166)

## Todos for release

- [x] Configure Env in docs project on vercel
- [x] Configure Root Path in the docs project on vercel
- [ ] Remove old CSP https://github.com/zitadel/website/pull/1592

## What we did

This pull request migrates the project documentation from the old
`docs/` directory to the new `apps/docs/` directory, introduces a new
documentation system built with Next.js and Fumadocs, and updates all
relevant references, configuration files, and documentation to reflect
this change. It also adds new configuration and ignore files for the new
documentation app, updates CI and linting to exclude the new docs from
certain checks, and revises the contributing guidelines accordingly.

**Documentation System Migration and New Docs App**

* Migrated all documentation from `docs/` to `apps/docs/`, and updated
all references in `README.md`, `CONTRIBUTING.md`, and other files to
point to the new location.

title: ZITADEL with Go
sidebar_label: Go
---
This integration guide shows you how to integrate **ZITADEL** into your Go API. It demonstrates how to secure your API using
OAuth 2 Token Introspection.
> ℹ️ These examples and guides are based on our official [Go SDK](https://github.com/zitadel/zitadel-go).
>
> The SDK is a convenient wrapper around our low-level [OIDC library](https://github.com/zitadel/oidc). For most use cases, using the helpers provided in our [Go SDK](https://github.com/zitadel/zitadel-go) is the recommended approach for implementing authentication.
At the end of the guide you should have an API with a protected endpoint.
> This documentation references our HTTP example. There's also one for GRPC. Check them out on [GitHub](https://github.com/zitadel/zitadel-go/blob/next/example/api/http/main.go).
## Prerequisites
This will handle the OAuth 2.0 introspection request including authentication using JWT with Private Key using our [Go SDK](https://github.com/zitadel/zitadel-go).
All that is required, is to create your API, create a private key and a personal access token for a service user.
### Set up application and obtain keys
Before we begin developing our API, we need to perform a few configuration steps in the ZITADEL Console.
You'll need to provide some information about your app. We recommend creating a new app to start from scratch.
Starting from the homepage of your management console, click on Create Application
![](../../../public/img/go/api-create_application.png)
Select a project from the dropdown and select *Other* as framework, then continue.
![](../../../public/img/go/api-select_framework.png)
Add your app name and select *API* as application type, then continue.
![](../../../public/img/go/api-app_details.png)
We recommend that you use JWT Profile for authenticating at the Introspection Endpoint. So select *JWT* as authentication method
![](../../../public/img/go/api-select_jwt.png)
You then need to create a new JSON key.
![](../../../public/img/go/api-new_key.png)
Select an expiration date that suits you.
![](../../../public/img/go/api-expiration_date.png)
And make sure to download it, as you won't be able to retrieve it again.
![](../../../public/img/go/api-download_key.png)
Now we need to create a *Personal Access Token* to authenticate the client requests.
On the user view, switch to *Service Users* and create a new one.
![](../../../public/img/go/api-service_user_panel.png)
Give the service user a name and a user name. Select `Bearer` as *Access Token Type*.
![](../../../public/img/go/api-create_service_user.png)
### Create service user and personal access token (PAT)
Once done, from the left panel of the user management, click on Personal Access Token and create a new one.
![](../../../public/img/go/api-PAT_view.png)
Set an expiration date and then copy the PAT generated to somewhere safe. We will need it later.
![](../../../public/img/go/api-PAT_creation.png)
## Go Setup
### Add Go SDK to your project
You need to add the [SDK](https://github.com/zitadel/zitadel-go) into Go Modules by:
```bash
go get -u github.com/zitadel/zitadel-go/v3
```
### Create example API
Create a new go file with the content below. This will create an API with three endpoints:
- `/api/healthz`: can be called by anyone and always returns `OK`
- `/api/tasks`: requires authorization and returns the available tasks
- `/api/add-task`: requires authorization with granted `admin` role and adds the task to the list
If authorization is required, the token must not be expired and the API has to be part of the audience (either client_id or project_id).
For tests we will use a Personal Access Token.
```go reference
https://github.com/zitadel/zitadel-go/blob/next/example/api/http/main.go
```
You will need to provide some values for the program to run:
- `domain`: Your ZITADEL Custom Domain, e.g. https://my-domain.zitadel.cloud
- `key`: The path to the downloaded key.json
- `port`: The port on which the API will be accessible, default it 8089
## Test API
After you have configured everything correctly, you can simply start the example by:
```bash
go run main.go --domain <custom domain> --key <path>
```
This could look like:
```bash
go run main.go --domain my-domain.zitadel.cloud --key ./api.json
```
After you get a successful log:
```
2023/12/04 10:27:42 INFO server listening, press ctrl+c to stop addr=http://localhost:8089
```
### Public endpoint
Now you can call the API by browser or curl. Try the healthz endpoint first:
```bash
curl -i http://localhost:8089/api/healthz
```
it should return something like:
```
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Content-Type: application/json
Date: Mon, 04 Dec 2023 09:29:38 GMT
Content-Length: 4
"OK"
```
### Task list
and the task list endpoint:
```bash
curl -i http://localhost:8089/api/tasks
```
it will return:
```
HTTP/1.1 401 Unauthorized
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8
X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff
Date: Mon, 04 Dec 2023 09:41:54 GMT
Content-Length: 44
unauthorized: authorization header is empty
```
We need to use the personal access token generated previously.
If you provide a valid Bearer Token:
```bash
curl -i -H "Authorization: Bearer ${token}" http://localhost:8089/api/tasks
```
it will return an empty list:
```
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Content-Type: application/json
Date: Mon, 04 Dec 2023 09:49:06 GMT
Content-Length: 2
{}
```
### Try to add a new task
Let's see what happens if you call the AddTask endpoint:
```bash
curl -i -H "Authorization: Bearer ${token}" http://localhost:8089/api/add-task
```
it will complain about the missing `admin` role:
```
HTTP/1.1 403 Forbidden
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8
X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff
Date: Mon, 04 Dec 2023 09:52:00 GMT
Content-Length: 50
permission denied: missing required role: `admin`
```
### Add administrator role
So let's create the role and grant it to the user. To do so, go to your project in ZITADEL Management Console
and create the role by selecting `Roles` in the navigation and then clicking on the `New Role` button.
Finally, create the role as shown below:
![Create project role in management console](../../../public/img/go/api-project-role.png)
After you have created the role, let's grant it the user, who requested the tasks.
Click on `Authorization` in the navigation and create a new one by selecting the user and the `admin` role.
After successful creation, it should look like:
![Created authorization in management console](../../../public/img/go/api-project-auth.png)
So you should now be able to add a new task:
```bash
curl -i -H "Authorization: Bearer ${token}" http://localhost:8089/api/add-task --data "task=My new task"
```
which will report back the successful addition:
```
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Content-Type: application/json
Date: Mon, 04 Dec 2023 10:06:29 GMT
Content-Length: 26
"task `My new task` added"
```
Let's now retrieve the task list again:
```bash
curl -i -H "Authorization: Bearer ${token}" http://localhost:8089/api/tasks
```
As you can see your new task ist listed. And since you're an `admin` now, you will always get an additional `create a new task on /api/add-task`:
```
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Content-Type: application/json
Date: Mon, 04 Dec 2023 10:08:38 GMT
Content-Length: 62
{"tasks":["My new task","create a new task on /api/add-task"]}

title: ZITADEL with Java Spring Boot
sidebar_label: Java Spring Boot
---
This integration guide shows you how to integrate **ZITADEL** into your Java Spring Boot API. It demonstrates how to secure your API using
OAuth 2 Token Introspection.
At the end of the guide you should have an API with a protected endpoint.
<Callout>
This documentation references our [example](https://github.com/zitadel/zitadel-java) on GitHub.
You can either create your own application or directly run the example by providing the necessary arguments.
</Callout>
## Set up application
Before we begin developing our API, we need to perform a few configuration steps in the ZITADEL Console.
You'll need to provide some information about your app. We recommend creating a new app to start from scratch. Navigate to your Project, then add a new application at the top of the page.
Select the **API** application type and continue.
![Create app in management console](../../../public/img/java-spring/api-create.png)
Select Basic Auth for authenticating at the Introspection Endpoint.
![Create app in management console](../../../public/img/java-spring/api-create-auth.png)
After successful creation of the app, a pop-up will appear displaying the app's client ID. Copy the client ID and secret, as you will need it to configure your Java client.
![Create api key in management console](../../../public/img/java-spring/api-create-clientid-secret.png)
## Spring Setup
Now that you have configured your web application on the ZITADEL side, you can proceed with the integration of your Spring client.
This guide will reference the [example repository](https://github.com/zitadel/zitadel-java) and explain the necessary steps taken in there.
If your starting from scratch, you can use the Spring Initializer with the [following setup](https://start.spring.io/#!type=maven-project&language=java&platformVersion=3.2.1&packaging=jar&jvmVersion=17&dependencies=web,lombok,oauth2-resource-server) as a base.
### Support class
To be able to take the most out of ZITADELs RBAC, we first need to create a CustomAuthorityOpaqueTokenIntrospector, that will
customize the introspection behavior and map the role claims (`urn:zitadel:iam:org:project:roles`)
into Spring Security `authiorities`, which can be used later on to determine the granted permissions.
So in your application, create a `support/zitadel` package and in there the `CustomAuthorityOpaqueTokenIntrospector.java`:
```java reference
https://github.com/zitadel/zitadel-java/blob/main/api/src/main/java/demo/app/support/zitadel/CustomAuthorityOpaqueTokenIntrospector.java
```
### Application server configuration
As we have now our support class, we can now create and configure the application server itself.
In a new `config` package, create the `WebSecurityConfig.java`.
This class will take care of the authorization by require the calls on `/api/tasks` to be authorized. Any other endpoint will be public by default.
It will also use the just created CustomAuthorityOpaqueTokenIntrospector for the introspection call:
```java reference
https://github.com/zitadel/zitadel-java/blob/main/api/src/main/java/demo/app/config/WebSecurityConfig.java
```
For the authorization (and the server in general) to work, the application needs some configuration, so please provide the following to your `application.yml` (resources folder):
```yaml reference
https://github.com/zitadel/zitadel-java/blob/main/api/src/main/resources/application.yml
```
Note that the `introspection-uri`, `client-id` and `client-secret` are only placeholders. You can either change them in here using the values provided by ZITADEL
or pass them later on as arguments when starting the application.
### Create example API
Create a `api` package with a `ExampleController.java` file with the content below. This will create an API with three endpoints / methods:
- `/api/healthz`: can be called by anyone and always returns `OK`
- `/api/tasks (GET)`: requires authorization and returns the available tasks
- `/api/tasks (POST)`: requires authorization with granted `admin` role and adds the task to the list
If authorization is required, the token must not be expired and the API has to be part of the audience (either client_id or project_id).
For tests we will use a Personal Access Token or the [Java Spring web example](../login/java-spring).
```java reference
https://github.com/zitadel/zitadel-java/blob/main/api/src/main/java/demo/app/api/ExampleController.java
```
## Test API
In case you've created your own application and depending on your development setup you might need to build the application first:
```bash
mvn clean package -DskipTests
```
You will need to provide the `introspection-uri` ($CUSTOM_DOMAIN/oauth/v2/introspect), the `client-id` and `client-secret` previously created:
```bash
java \
-Dspring.security.oauth2.resourceserver.opaquetoken.introspection-uri=<see configuration above> \
-Dspring.security.oauth2.resourceserver.opaquetoken.client-id=<see configuration above> \
-Dspring.security.oauth2.resourceserver.opaquetoken.client-secret=<see configuration above> \
-jar api/target/api-0.0.2-SNAPSHOT.jar
```
This could look like:
```bash
java \
-Dspring.security.oauth2.resourceserver.opaquetoken.introspection-uri=https://my-domain.zitadel.cloud/oauth/v2/introspect \
-Dspring.security.oauth2.resourceserver.opaquetoken.client-id=243861220627644836@example \
-Dspring.security.oauth2.resourceserver.opaquetoken.client-secret=WJKLF3kfPOi3optkg9vi3jmfjv8oj32nfiäohj!FSC09RWUSR \
-jar web/target/web-0.0.2-SNAPSHOT.jar
```
### Public endpoint
Now you can call the API by browser or curl. Try the healthz endpoint first:
```bash
curl -i http://localhost:18090/api/healthz
```
it should return something like:
```
HTTP/1.1 200
Vary: Origin
Vary: Access-Control-Request-Method
Vary: Access-Control-Request-Headers
X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff
X-XSS-Protection: 0

X-Frame-Options: DENY
Content-Type: text/plain;charset=UTF-8
Content-Length: 2
Date: Mon, 15 Jan 2024 09:07:21 GMT
OK
```
### Task list
and the task list endpoint:
```bash
curl -i http://localhost:18090/api/tasks
```
it will return:
```
HTTP/1.1 401
Vary: Origin
Vary: Access-Control-Request-Method
Vary: Access-Control-Request-Headers
WWW-Authenticate: Bearer

X-Frame-Options: DENY
Content-Length: 0
Date: Mon, 15 Jan 2024 09:07:55 GMT
```
Get a valid access_token for the API. You can either achieve this by getting an access token with the project_id in the audience
(e.g. by using the [Spring Boot web example](../login/java-spring)) use a PAT of a service account.
If you provide a valid Bearer Token:
```bash
curl -i -H "Authorization: Bearer ${token}" http://localhost:18090/api/tasks
```
it will return an empty list:
```
HTTP/1.1 200

```
### Try to add a new task
Let's see what happens if you call the tasks endpoint:
```bash
curl -i -X POST -H "Authorization: Bearer ${token}" -H "Content-Type: application/json" --data 'my new task' http://localhost:18090/api/tasks
```
it will complain with a permission denied (missing `admin` role):
```
HTTP/1.1 403

and create the role by selecting `Roles` in the navigation and then clicking on the `New Role` button.
Finally, create the role as shown below:

# ZITADEL with Node.js (NestJS)
This documentation section guides you through the process of integrating ZITADEL into your Node.js backend using the NestJS framework. The provided example demonstrates authentication using an OIDC (OAuth2) token introspection strategy with a ZITADEL service account for machine-to-machine communication.
## Overview
The NestJS API includes a single secured route that prints "Hello World!" when authenticated. The API expects an authorization header with a valid JWT, serving as a bearer token to authenticate the user when calling the API. The API will validate the access token on the [introspect endpoint](/apis/openidoauth/endpoints#introspection-endpoint) and receive the user from ZITADEL.
The API application utilizes [JWT with Private Key](/apis/openidoauth/authn-methods#jwt-with-private-key) for authentication against ZITADEL and accessing the introspection endpoint. Make sure to create an API Application within Zitadel and download the JSON. In this instance, we use this service account, so make sure to provide the secrets in the example application via environmental variables.
## Overview
The NestJS API includes a private endpoint `GET http://localhost:${APP_PORT}/api/v1/app`, which returns "Hello World" when authenticated. The authentication is performed using a JWT obtained through the token introspection strategy.
## Running the Example
### Prerequisites
Make sure you have Node.js and npm installed on your machine.
### ZITADEL Configuration for the API
1. Create a ZITADEL instance and a project by following the steps [here](/guides/start/quickstart#3-create-your-zitadel-instance).
2. Set up an API application within your project:
- Create a new application of type "API" with authentication method "Private Key".
- Create a and save the Private Key JSON file.
### Create and Run the API
Clone or download the [example repository](https://github.com/ehwplus/zitadel-nodejs-nestjs):
```bash
git clone https://github.com/ehwplus/zitadel-nodejs-nestjs && cd zitadel-nodejs-nestjs
```
and follow the instructions here: https://github.com/ehwplus/zitadel-nodejs-nestjs/blob/main/README.md#installation
### Test the API
Call the API without authorization headers:
```bash
curl --request GET \
--url http://localhost:${APP_PORT}/api/v1/app
```
You should get a response with Status Code 401 and an error message.
Now, add an authorization header with a valid JWT obtained through ZITADEL:
```bash
export JWT=your-valid-jwt
curl --request GET \
--url http://localhost:${APP_PORT}/api/v1/app \
--header "authorization: Bearer $JWT"
```
You should now receive a response with Status Code 200 and the message:
```json
"Hello World!"
```
Congratulations! You have successfully integrated ZITADEL authentication into your NestJS API using the Token Introspection strategy.

import AppJWT from "../imports/_app_jwt.mdx";
import ServiceuserJWT from "../imports/_serviceuser_jwt.mdx";
import ServiceuserRole from "../imports/_serviceuser_role.mdx";
This integration guide demonstrates the recommended way to incorporate ZITADEL into your [Pylon](https://pylon.cronit.io) service.
It explains how to check the token validity in the API and how to check for permissions.
By the end of this guide, your application will have three different endpoint which are public, private(valid token) and private-scoped(valid token with specific role).
## ZITADEL setup
Before we can start building our application, we have to do a few configuration steps in ZITADEL Management Console.
### Create application
<AppJWT components={props.components} />
### Create Serviceuser
<ServiceuserJWT components={props.components} />
### Give Serviceuser an authorization
<ServiceuserRole components={props.components} />
### Prerequisites
At the end you should have the following for the API:
- Issuer, something like `https://example.zitadel.cloud` or `http://localhost:8080`
- `.json`-key-file for the API, from the application
- ID of the project
And the following from the Serviceuser:
- `.json`-key-file from the serviceuser
## Setup new Pylon service
Pylon allows you to create a new service using the `npm create pylon` command. This command creates a new Pylon project with a basic project structure and configuration.
During the setup process, you can choose your preferred runtime, such as Bun, Node.js, or Cloudflare Workers.
**This guide uses the Bun runtime.**
### Creating a new project
To create a new Pylon project, run the following command:
```bash
npm create pylon my-pylon@latest
```
This will create a new directory called `my-pylon` with a basic Pylon project structure.
### Project structure
Pylon projects are structured as follows:
```
my-pylon/
├── .pylon/
├── src/
│ ├── index.ts
├── package.json
├── tsconfig.json
```
- `.pylon/`: Contains the production build of your project.
- `src/`: Contains the source code of your project.
- `src/index.ts`: The entry point of your Pylon service.
- `package.json`: The npm package configuration file.
- `tsconfig.json`: The TypeScript configuration file.
### Basic example
Here's an example of a basic Pylon service:
```ts
export const graphql = {
Query: {
sum: (a: number, b: number) => a + b,
},
Mutation: {
divide: (a: number, b: number) => a / b,
},
};
export default app;
```
## Secure the API
### Add ZITADEL info to the service
1. Create a `.env` file in the root folder of your project and add the following configuration:
```bash
AUTH_ISSUER='URL to the zitadel instance'
AUTH_PROJECT_ID='ID of the project'
```
It should look something like this:
```bash
AUTH_ISSUER='https://example.zitadel.cloud'
AUTH_PROJECT_ID='250719519163548112'
```
2. Copy the `.json`-key-file that you downloaded from the ZITADEL Management Console into the root folder of your project and rename it to `key.json`.
3. (Optional) For added convenience in production environments, you can include the content of the .json key file as `AUTH_KEY` in the .env file or as an environment variable.
### Auth
Pylon provides a auth module and a decorator to check the validity of the token and the permissions.
- `auth.initialize()`: Initializes the authentication middleware.
- `auth.require()` : Middleware to check if the token is valid.
- `auth.require({roles: ['role']})`: Middleware to check if the token is valid and has the specified roles.
- `requireAuth()`: Decorator to check if the token is valid.
- `requireAuth({roles: ['role']})`: Decorator to check if the token is valid and has the specified roles.
### Build the Pylon service
Now we will create a new Pylon service with the following endpoints:
- `/api/public`: Public endpoint
- `/api/private`: Private endpoint
- `/api/private-scoped`: Private endpoint with specific role
- `/graphql`: GraphQL endpoint
- Query: `me`: Private endpoint that returns the current user and the messages if the role is `read:messages`
- Query: `info`: Public endpoint
### Create the service
The following code demonstrates how to create a Pylon service with the required endpoints, it must be added to the `src/index.ts` file of your project:
```ts
import {
app,
auth,
requireAuth,
getContext,
ServiceError,
} from "@getcronit/pylon";
class User {
id: string;
name: string;
#messages: string[];
constructor(id: string, name: string, messages: string[]) {
this.id = id;
this.name = name;
this.#messages = messages;
}
@requireAuth({ roles: ["read:messages"] })
async messages() {
return this.#messages;
}
static users: User[] = [];
@requireAuth()
static async me() {
const ctx = getContext();
const id = ctx.get("auth")!.sub;
const user = User.users.find((user) => user.id === id);
if (!user) {
throw new ServiceError("User not found", {
statusCode: 404,
code: "USER_NOT_FOUND",
});
}
return user;
}
@requireAuth()
static async create() {
const ctx = getContext();
const auth = ctx.get("auth")!;
// Check if the user already exists
if (User.users.find((user) => user.id === auth.sub)) {
throw new ServiceError("User already exists", {
statusCode: 400,
code: "USER_ALREADY_EXISTS",
});
}
const user = new User(auth.sub, auth.username || "unknown", [
"Welcome to Pylon with ZITADEL!",
]);
User.users.push(user);
return user;
}
}
export const graphql = {
Query: {
me: User.me,
info: () => "Public Data",
},
Mutation: {
createUser: User.create,
},
};
// Initialize the authentication middleware
app.use("*", auth.initialize());
// Automatically try to create a user for each request for demonstration purposes
app.use(async (_, next) => {
try {
await User.create();
} catch {
// Ignore errors
// Fail silently if the user already exists
}
await next();
});
app.get("/img/api/info", (c) => {
return new Response("Public Data");
});
// The `auth.require()` middleware is optional here, as the `User.me` method already checks for it.
app.get("/img/api/me", auth.require(), async (c) => {
const user = await User.me();
return c.json(user);
});
// A role check for `read:messages` is not required here, as the `user.messages` method already checks for it.
app.get("/img/api/me/messages", auth.require(), async (c) => {
const user = await User.me();
// This will throw an error if the user does not have the `read:messages` role
return c.json(await user.messages());
});
export default app;
```
### Call the API
To call the API you need an access token, which is then verified by ZITADEL.
Please follow [this guide here](/guides/integrate/token-introspection/private-key-jwt), ignoring the first step as we already have the `.json`-key-file from the serviceaccount.
<Callout>
You can also create a PAT for the serviceuser and use it to test the API. For this, follow [this guide](/guides/integrate/service-users/personal-access-token#create-a-service-user-with-a-pat).
</Callout>
Optionally set the token as an environment variable:
```
export TOKEN='MtjHodGy4zxKylDOhg6kW90WeEQs2q...'
```
Now you have to start the Pylon service:
```bash
bun run dev
```
With the access token, you can then do the following calls:
1. GraphQL:
```
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" -G http://localhost:3000/graphql --data-urlencode 'query={ info }'
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" -G http://localhost:3000/graphql --data-urlencode 'query={ me { id name } }'
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" -G http://localhost:3000/graphql --data-urlencode 'query={ me { id name messages } }'
```
You can also visit the GraphQL playground at `http://localhost:3000/graphql` and execute the queries there.
2. Routes:
```
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" -X GET http://localhost:3000/api/info
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" -X GET http://localhost:3000/api/me
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" -X GET http://localhost:3000/api/me/messages
```
## Completion
Congratulations! You have successfully integrated your Pylon with ZITADEL!

## ZITADEL setup
Before we can start building our application, we have to do a few configuration steps in ZITADEL Management Console.
### Create application
<AppJWT components={props.components} />
### Create Serviceuser
<ServiceuserJWT components={props.components} />
### Give Serviceuser an authorization
<ServiceuserRole components={props.components} />
### Prerequisites
At the end you should have the following for the API:
- Issuer, something like `https://example.zitadel.cloud` or `http://localhost:8080`
- Introspection URL, something like `https://example.zitadel.cloud/oauth/v2/introspect`
- Token URL, something like `https://example.zitadel.cloud/oauth/v2/token`
- `.json`-key-file for the API, from the application
- ID of the project
And the following from the Serviceuser:
- `.json`-key-file from the serviceuser
## Setup new Django application
### Setup Python
<SetupPython components={props.components} />
### Install dependencies
For this example we need the following dependencies:
- `django`: to create an API with django
- `python-dotenv`: to use environment variables in the configuration
- `authlib`: client-side OAuth functionality
- `requests`: HTTP requests for the introspection
For the dependencies we need a requirements.txt-file with the following content:
```python reference
https://github.com/zitadel/example-python-django-oauth/blob/main/requirements.txt
```
Then install all dependencies with:
```bash
python -m pip install -U requirements.txt
```
Then in your folder of choice, call the following command to create a Django base:
```bash
django-admin startproject myapi .
```
## Define the Django API
### Add to the settings.py to include ZITADEL info
There is info needed for the introspection calls, which we put into the settings.py:
```python reference
https://github.com/zitadel/example-python-django-oauth/blob/main/myapi/settings.py#L125-L133
```
and create a ".env"-file in the root folder with the configuration as an example:
```bash
ZITADEL_INTROSPECTION_URL = 'URL to the introspection endpoint to verify the provided token'
ZITADEL_DOMAIN = 'Domain used as audience in the token verification'
API_PRIVATE_KEY_FILE_PATH = 'Path to the key.json created in ZITADEL'
```
I should look something like this:
```bash
ZITADEL_INTROSPECTION_URL = 'https://example.zitadel.cloud/oauth/v2/introspect'
ZITADEL_DOMAIN = 'https://example.zitadel.cloud'
API_PRIVATE_KEY_FILE_PATH = '/tmp/example/250719519163548112.json'
```
### Validator definition
To validate the tokens, we need a validator which can be called in the event of API-calls.
validator.py:
```python reference
https://github.com/zitadel/example-python-django-oauth/blob/main/myapi/validator.py
```
### Requests and URLs
We define 3 different endpoints which differ in terms of requirements.
views.py:
```python reference
https://github.com/zitadel/example-python-django-oauth/blob/main/myapi/views.py
```
To handle endpoints the urls have to be added to the urls.py:
```python reference
https://github.com/zitadel/example-python-django-oauth/blob/main/myapi/urls.py
```
### DB
Create and run migrations:
```bash
python manage.py migrate
```
### Run
You can use a local Django server to test the application.
```bash
python manage.py runserver
```
### Call the API
To call the API you need an access token, which is then verified by ZITADEL.
Please follow [this guide here](/guides/integrate/token-introspection/private-key-jwt), ignoring the first step as we already have the `.json`-key-file from the serviceaccount.
Optionally set the token as an environment variable:
```
export TOKEN='MtjHodGy4zxKylDOhg6kW90WeEQs2q...'
```
With the access token, you can then do the following calls:
```
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" -X GET http://localhost:8000/api/public
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" -X GET http://localhost:8000/api/private
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" -X GET http://localhost:8000/api/private-scoped
```
## Completion

title: ZITADEL with Python
sidebar_label: Python
---
This example shows you how to secure a Python3 Flask API with both authentication and authorization using ZITADEL.
## Overview
![](../../../public/img/python-flask/1.png)
The Python API will have public, private, and private-scoped routes and check if a user is authenticated and authorized to access the routes.
The private routes expect an authorization header with a valid access token in the request. The access token is used as a bearer token to authenticate the user when calling the API.
The API will validate the access token on the [introspect endpoint](/apis/openidoauth/endpoints#introspection-endpoint) and will receive the user's roles from ZITADEL.
The API application uses [Client Secret Basic](/apis/openidoauth/authn-methods#client-secret-basic) to authenticate against ZITADEL and access the introspection endpoint.
You can use any valid access_token from a user or service account to send requests to the example API.
In this example we will use a service account with a [personal access token](/guides/integrate/service-users/personal-access-token) which can be used directly to access the example API.
## Running the example
### Python Prerequisites
In order to run the example you need to have `python3` and `pip3` installed.
### ZITADEL configuration for the API
![](../../../public/img/python-flask/2.png)
You need to setup a couple of things in ZITADEL.
1. If you don't have an instance yet, please go ahead and create an instance as explained [here](/guides/start/quickstart#3-create-your-zitadel-instance). Also, create a new project by following the steps [here](/guides/start/quickstart#4-create-your-project-and-application).
2. You must create an API application in your project. Follow [this guide](/guides/manage/console/applications-overview) to create a new application of type "API" with authentication method "Basic". Save both the ClientID and ClientSecret after you create the application.
### Create the API
1. Clone or download this [Python project](https://github.com/zitadel/example-api-python3-flask) to your workspace.
```
git clone https://github.com/zitadel/example-api-python3-flask
cd example-api-python3-flask
```
2. The [server.py](https://github.com/zitadel/example-api-python3-flask/blob/main/server.py) file contains a Flask-based API that provides authentication for routes using the OpenID Connect protocol as shown below.
```python
from flask import Flask, jsonify, Response
from authlib.integrations.flask_oauth2 import ResourceProtector
from validator import ZitadelIntrospectTokenValidator, ValidatorError
require_auth = ResourceProtector()
require_auth.register_token_validator(ZitadelIntrospectTokenValidator())
APP = Flask(__name__)
@APP.errorhandler(ValidatorError)
def handle_auth_error(ex: ValidatorError) -> Response:
response = jsonify(ex.error)
response.status_code = ex.status_code
return response
@APP.route("/img/api/public")
def public():
"""No access token required."""
response = (
"Public route - You don't need to be authenticated to see this."
)
return jsonify(message=response)
@APP.route("/img/api/private")
@require_auth(None)
def private():
"""A valid access token is required."""
response = (
"Private route - You need to be authenticated to see this."
)
return jsonify(message=response)
@APP.route("/img/api/private-scoped")
@require_auth(["read:messages"])
def private_scoped():
"""A valid access token and scope are required."""
response = (
"Private, scoped route - You need to be authenticated and have the role read:messages to see this."
)
return jsonify(message=response)
if __name__ == "__main__":
APP.run()
```
The API has three routes:
<ul>
<li> "/img/api/public" - No access token is required.</li>
<li>"/img/api/private" - A valid access token is required.</li>
<li>"/img/api/private-scoped" - A valid access token and a "read:messages" scope are required.</li>
</ul>
The [validator.py](https://github.com/zitadel/example-api-python3-flask/blob/main/validator.py) file implements the ZitadelIntrospectTokenValidator class, which is a custom class that inherits from the IntrospectTokenValidator class provided by the authlib library. The introspection process retrieves the token details from ZITADEL using ZITADEL's introspection endpoint.
```python
from os import environ as env
import os
import time
from typing import Dict
from authlib.oauth2.rfc7662 import IntrospectTokenValidator
import requests
from dotenv import load_dotenv, find_dotenv
from requests.auth import HTTPBasicAuth
load_dotenv()
ZITADEL_DOMAIN = os.getenv("ZITADEL_DOMAIN")
CLIENT_ID = os.getenv("CLIENT_ID")
CLIENT_SECRET = os.getenv("CLIENT_SECRET")
class ValidatorError(Exception):
def __init__(self, error: Dict[str, str], status_code: int):
super().__init__()
self.error = error
self.status_code = status_code
# Use Introspection in Resource Server
# https://docs.authlib.org/en/latest/specs/rfc7662.html#require-oauth-introspection
class ZitadelIntrospectTokenValidator(IntrospectTokenValidator):
def introspect_token(self, token_string):
url = f'{ZITADEL_DOMAIN}/oauth/v2/introspect'
data = {'token': token_string, 'token_type_hint': 'access_token', 'scope': 'openid'}
auth = HTTPBasicAuth(CLIENT_ID, CLIENT_SECRET)
resp = requests.post(url, data=data, auth=auth)
resp.raise_for_status()
return resp.json()
def match_token_scopes(self, token, or_scopes):
if or_scopes is None:
return True
roles = token["urn:zitadel:iam:org:project:roles"].keys()
for and_scopes in or_scopes:
scopes = and_scopes.split()
"""print(f"Check if all {scopes} are in {roles}")"""
if all(key in roles for key in scopes):
return True
return False
def validate_token(self, token, scopes, request):
print (f"Token: {token}\n")
now = int( time.time() )
if not token:
raise ValidatorError({
"code": "invalid_token_revoked",
"description": "Token was revoked." }, 401)
"""Expired"""
if token["exp"] < now:
raise ValidatorError({
"code": "invalid_token_expired",
"description": "Token has expired." }, 401)
"""Revoked"""
if not token["active"]:
raise InvalidTokenError()
"""Insufficient Scope"""
if not self.match_token_scopes(token, scopes):
raise ValidatorError({
"code": "insufficient_scope",
"description": f"Token has insufficient scope. Route requires: {scopes}" }, 401)
def __call__(self, *args, **kwargs):
res = self.introspect_token(*args, **kwargs)
return res
```
3. Create a new file named ".env" in the directory. Copy the configuration in the [".env.example"](https://github.com/zitadel/example-api-python3-flask/blob/main/.env.example) file to the newly created .env file. Set the values with your Custom Domain/Issuer URL, Client ID, and Client Secret from the previous steps. Obtain your Issuer URL by following [these steps](/guides/start/quickstart#5-collect-your-integration-keys).
```python
ZITADEL_DOMAIN = "https://custom-domain-abcdef.zitadel.cloud"
CLIENT_ID = "197....@projectname"
CLIENT_SECRET = "NVAp70IqiGmJldbS...."
```
### ZITADEL configuration to create a service user
![](../../../public/img/python-flask/3.png)
1. Create a service user and a Personal Access Token (PAT) for that user by following [this guide](/guides/integrate/service-users/personal-access-token#create-a-service-user-with-a-pat).
2. To enable authorization, follow [this guide](/guides/manage/console/roles) to create a role `read:messages` on your project.
3. Next, create an authorization for the service user you created by adding the role `read:messages` to the user. Follow this [guide](/guides/manage/console/roles#authorizations) for more information on creating an authorization.
### Run the API
1. Install required dependencies by running `pip3 install -r requirements.txt` on your terminal.
2. Run the API with the `python3 server.py` command.
3. Open another terminal and follow the next step to test the API.
## Test the API
### Public route
Invoke the public route by running the following command:
```
curl --request GET \
--url http://127.0.0.1:5000/api/public
```
You should get a response with Status Code 200 and the following message.
`{"message":"Public route - You don't need to be authenticated to see this."}`
### Private route
Call the private route without authorization headers by running the following command:
```
curl --request GET \
--url http://127.0.0.1:5000/api/private
```
You should get a response with Status Code 401 and an error message.
Now let's add an authorization header to your request. Save the personal access token for your service user to a variable by running the following command. Replace the value with the PAT you obtained earlier.
`PAT=nr9vnUTkQkn4rxWk...`
Then call the private route with the PAT in the authorization header.
```
curl --request GET \
--url http://127.0.0.1:5000/api/private \
--header "authorization: Bearer $PAT"
```
Now you should get a response with Status Code 200 and the following message.
`{"message":"Private route - You need to be authenticated to see this."}`
### Private route, protected
Call the private route that requires the user to have a certain role
```
curl --request GET \
--url http://127.0.0.1:5000/api/private-scoped \
--header "authorization: Bearer $PAT"
```
You should get a response with Status Code 200 and the following message.
`{"message":"Private, scoped route - You need to be authenticated and have the role read:messages to see this."}`
You can remove the role from the service user in ZITADEL and try again. You should then get a Status Code 403, Forbidden error.
