GitHub user mitpjones edited a discussion: [Q/A] (Dubbo version 3.3.1) Where can I find an example of using the Auth plugin?
### Pre-check - [X] I am sure that all the content I provide is in English. ### Apache Dubbo Component Java SDK (apache/dubbo) ### Details Where can I find an example of using the [Auth plugin](https://github.com/apache/dubbo/tree/3.3/dubbo-plugin/dubbo-auth) ? I can not find any documentation that describes how to use/configure the plugin apart from [https://dubbo.apache.org/en/overview/mannual/java-sdk/reference-manual/protocol/tripe-rest-manual/](https://dubbo.apache.org/en/overview/mannual/java-sdk/reference-manual/protocol/tripe-rest-manual/) and [https://dubbo.apache.org/en/overview/mannual/java-sdk/tasks/security/auth/](https://dubbo.apache.org/en/overview/mannual/java-sdk/tasks/security/auth/) I have tried to configure the BasicAuthenticator with partial success(1) and also the AccessKeyAuthenticator with little success. I can also see there there is a package called org.apache.dubbo.auth.v1alpha1 which makes me think that some of the functionality may not yet be complete? 1) If the producer is configured with ``` provider: auth: true authenticator: basic username: admin password: admin ``` then the service IS still accessible if the consumer is configured as ``` consumer: auth: true ``` maybe a bug? However will be denied if configured and the username/password is different e.g. ``` consumer: auth: true authenticator: basic username: xyz password: xyz ``` Thanks, Tim ### Code of Conduct - [X] I agree to follow this project's [Code of Conduct](https://www.apache.org/foundation/policies/conduct) GitHub link: https://github.com/apache/dubbo/discussions/15612 ---- This is an automatically sent email for notifications@dubbo.apache.org.
