Run Mode

With this configuration option, you can define in which mode Gate should run. The possible values are:

  • proxy: run Gate as a proxy or API gateway
  • ext_auth: run Gate as an ExtAuth-compatible authorization service
  • aws_lambda_auth: run Gate as an AWS Lambda Authorizer function

The default is proxy.

If you need to run Gate in multiple modes within the same infrastructure, we recommend having separate deployments, each configured individually.
