RAML Design With Anypoint Platform - Part III | MuleSoft | Security Scheme

This is third video in the series which will talk about how to design APIs using RAML.
There will be demonstration on designing APIs using basic RAML. Here we will see how to implement custom security schemes.

- Build and Design Security Schemes in RAML

Each authentication pattern supported by the API must be expressed as an element of the Security Schemes node value. The Security Schemes should be created under a separate folder and included within the API RAML file.

Supported Security Schemes are defined below.

OAuth 1.0: API authentication requires using OAuth 1.0
OAuth 2.0: API authentication requires using OAuth 2.0
Basic authentication: API authentication relies on using basic authentication, and will need to pass username and password checks.
Digest authentication: API authentication relies on using digest authentication.
Pass-through: Headers or query parameters are passed through to the API based on a defined mapping.
x-{other}: API authentication relies on another authentication mechanism. You can define custom Security Schemes prefixed with “x-”. Please refer to the below example for custom Security Schemes.

It is very important to design the APIs before actual implementation and get feedback from users, developers or stakeholder.

Here is some blogs provides more information on RAML

Thank you, you make it easy to understand.

These are fantastic tutorials, thanks for making it

I have observed that when applied securityscheme (custom), though I mentioned header details in the securityscheme as mandatory, but it doesn't behave the same way at the implementation. I mean after the raml is imported into the code, when mandatory header details not passed, I'd expected it fails with raml validation as header not passed but not the case.It will simply pass the request to the flow without failure.

Mandatory check is only shown in the design centre - Mock service.!!

Very informative!!!!
Q: Is it possible to add multiple security schemes using secured by?
If I add multiple, RAML recognises them as optional. But what if we want them both to be mandatory?

where is the part 1. please provide me the link

Hello Sir,
what is the use of resource path? like /accounts

[manilkumar]

Hi sir, i have one doubt . which policy can we apply entire RAML

[pajitk]

client_id String Required
client_secret String Required

but it's not validating when no value filled

No code differences, pls help me to understand
