Developer Tooling

Overview​

This section covers the developer-facing tools available in the Keymate platform for authoring policies, exploring APIs, testing authorization decisions, and experimenting with authorization models. These tools help you build, validate, and debug authorization configurations before deploying to production.

When to Read This Section​

  • You want to write ABAC or RADAC expressions using the FQL code editor
  • You want to explore API schemas and resource definitions
  • You want to test authorization decisions with explain and simulation tools
  • You want to experiment with FGA authorization models

Who Should Start Here​

  • Developer — Developers authoring policies, testing authorization flows, or building integrations with the Keymate platform

Key Topics​

Using the API Explorer

Browse and inspect authorization model schemas and resource definitions.

Using the Admin API Tester

Test API endpoints with custom headers, scopes, and request parameters.

Policy DSL Tooling

FQL code editor with auto-completion, validation, formatting, and field browser.

FGA Playground Workflows

Experiment with FGA authorization models and relationship queries.

Testing Authorization with Explain & Simulation

Test authorization decisions and inspect decision traces.
