Proxy (passthrough)
Call a provider's own API endpoint directly, with credentials injected and governance applied.
When the operation you need isn't a catalog action, use the proxy: a governed passthrough to the provider's own REST API. Nolixan injects the connection's credentials, applies policy, and audits the call — you just specify the provider endpoint.
- The path after
/proxy/is the provider's endpoint; the HTTP method is the method you use. provider-config-key(required) andconnection-id(optional — auto-resolved if you have one connection for the provider) are sent as headers.- Query params and the body are forwarded to the provider; the provider's status, body, and headers are passed back.
You can also address the connection in the path:
Governance on passthrough
Proxy calls are gated too. Each is evaluated under a synthetic action name {method}_proxy
(e.g. post_proxy, delete_proxy), and writes (POST/PUT/PATCH/DELETE) are treated as write risk — so
default-deny on writes and approvals apply to passthrough exactly as they do to
catalog actions. A denied proxy call returns 403; an approval-required one returns 202.
