Make the following request:

curl -i -X POST http://localhost:8001/services/{serviceName|Id}/plugins/ \
    --header "Accept: application/json" \
    --header "Content-Type: application/json" \
    --data '

        "consumer_by": "username"
      }
    }
    '

Make sure to replace the following placeholders with your own values:

• serviceName|Id: The id or name of the service the plugin configuration will target.

Make the following request:

curl -X POST https://{region}.api.konghq.com/v2/control-planes/{controlPlaneId}/core-entities/services/{serviceId}/plugins/ \
    --header "accept: application/json" \
    --header "Content-Type: application/json" \

        "header_type": "ldap",
        "consumer_by": "username"
      }
    }
    '

Make sure to replace the following placeholders with your own values:

• region: Geographic region where your Kong Konnect is hosted and operates.

• controlPlaneId: The id of the control plane.

• KONNECT_TOKEN: Your Personal Access Token (PAT) associated with your Konnect account.

• serviceId: The id of the service the plugin configuration will target.

See the Konnect API reference to learn about region-specific URLs and personal access tokens.

Next, apply the KongPlugin resource by annotating the service resource:

kubectl annotate -n kong service SERVICE_NAME konghq.com/plugins=ldap-auth-advanced

terraform {
  required_providers {
    konnect = {
      source  = "kong/konnect"

  }
}

provider "konnect" {
  personal_access_token = "$KONNECT_TOKEN"
  server_url            = "https://us.api.konghq.com/"

Add the following to your Terraform configuration to create a Konnect Gateway Plugin:

resource "konnect_gateway_plugin_ldap_auth_advanced" "my_ldap_auth_advanced" {
  enabled = true

  config = {
    ldap_host = var.ldap_host
    ldap_port = 389

    verify_ldap_host = false
    attribute = "cn"

  }

  control_plane_id = konnect_gateway_control_plane.my_konnect_cp.id
  service = {
    id = konnect_gateway_service.my_service.id

}

This example requires the following variables to be added to your manifest. You can specify values at runtime by setting TF_VAR_name=value.

variable "ldap_host" {
  type = string
}

Make the following request:

curl -i -X POST http://localhost:8001/routes/{routeName|Id}/plugins/ \
