In this series of liveProjects, you’ll develop and implement role-based access controls to limit which employees can access a REST API. You’ll step into the shoes of a developer modernizing their company’s personal time-off request application, taking on essential access control tasks such as adding HTTP authentication, securely storing passwords in a database, and authorizing leave requests by employees based on user role. Each liveProject in this series can be tackled by itself or as part of an extended learning course.
In this liveProject, you’ll add basic HTTP authentication to an API for granting Personal Time Off requests using the Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP). This application contains sensitive personal information and so its security is essential. You’ll establish authentication that ensures only registered users can access the API and provides login requirements to authenticate users before they get access.
