Pass Identity Headers

Summary

When set to true, the Pass Identity Headers setting sends identity headers to all upstream applications.

To change this behavior for a specific route, use the route-level Pass Identity Headers setting.

Identity headers include:

  • X-Pomerium-Jwt-Assertion
  • X-Pomerium-Claim-* (see JWT Claim Headers for more information)

How to configure

YAML/JSON settingTypeUsageDefault
pass_identity_headersbooleanoptional*false

Examples

pass_identity_headers: true

routes:
- from: https://service.corp.example.io
to: http://localhost:3000

* If neither the global nor route-level pass_identity_headers settings are defined, both settings will default to false.
