Hello all, I came across this blog post on how LinkedIn does authorizations. I was wondering whether DataHub also follows that model. A quick github repo search didn't find obvious ways to configure authorizations. Could someone link me to docs or code that may point me in the right direction? Thanks!

The frontend app currently does not authenticate with real credentials in the Open Source version (just validates that the username is a valid CorpUser), but the API calls are blocked behind authorization through the Rest.li framework. Rest.li has some docs here: https://linkedin.github.io/rest.li/ but I've found some of them to not be completely updated. The github repo for Rest.li is here: https://github.com/linkedin/rest.li and it hooks into Datahub through the ParallelRestliHttpRequestHandler for the GMS service: https://github.com/linkedin/datahub/blob/master/gms/factories/src/main/java/com/linkedin/restli/server/spring/ParallelRestliHttpRequestHandler.java hopefully this helps.

Thank you for your reply! ParallelRestliHttpRequestHandler was just what I was looking for.
