Express-Gateway response error after setting authorization


I'm getting an Error 404 when trying to set my authorization key (key-auth) in the request header. I'm sure that there isn't any problem with my key because if I don't set it a Forbidden status will return.

before setting any credentials:

$ curl http://localhost:8080/ip

will return:

{
  "origin": "5.116.28.133"
}

after creating a key-auth credential:

$ curl -H "Authorization: apiKey ${keyId}:${keySecret}" http://localhost:8080/ip

will return:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<title>Error</title>
</head>
<body>
<pre>Cannot GET /ip</pre>
</body>
</html>

and it's my gateway config:

http:
  port: 8080
admin:
  port: 9876
  hostname: localhost
apiEndpoints:
  api:
    host: localhost
    paths: '/ip'
serviceEndpoints:
  httpbin:
    url: 'https://httpbin.org'
policies:
  - basic-auth
  - cors
  - expression
  - key-auth
  - log
  - oauth2
  - proxy
  - rate-limit
pipelines:
  - name: default
    apiEndpoints:
      - api
    policies:
    - key-auth:
      - proxy:
          - action:
              serviceEndpoint: httpbin 
              changeOrigin: true

Does anyone know why this issue happens?

Solution

  • Try removing the hyphen from key-auth under policies: in your config file - this worked for me. It should just be keyauth.
