  • Next Modified Date: 24 May, 2024


A. Introduction

Manages a ServiceBus Namespace authorization Rule within a ServiceBus.


B. How is it used at Seagen

name - (Required) Specifies the name of the ServiceBus Namespace Authorization Rule resource. Changing this forces a new resource to be created.

namespace_id - (Required) Specifies the ID of the ServiceBus Namespace. Changing this forces a new resource to be created.

NOTE At least one of the 3 permissions below needs to be set.

listen - (Optional) Grants listen access to this this Authorization Rule. Defaults to false.

send - (Optional) Grants send access to this this Authorization Rule. Defaults to false.

manage - (Optional) Grants manage access to this this Authorization Rule. When this property is true - both listen and send must be too. Defaults to false.


C. Features

Provides a secure way to access the ServiceBus. Authorization rules configured at the namespace level can grant access to all entities in a namespace for clients with tokens signed using the corresponding key. You can configure up to 12 such authorization rules on a Service Bus namespace, queue, or topic. By default, a shared access authorization rule with all rights is configured for every namespace when it’s first provisioned.
