Akeyless Authentication Methods and Sub-Claims
Create multiple auth methods with isolated access roles, explore Universal Identity tokens, and review audit events per identity
Lab Overview
In this lab you will create separate API Key auth methods for two different applications, each bound to an isolated access role. You will then create a Universal Identity auth method, generate a UID token, and configure a CLI profile with it. Finally you will explore sub-claims conceptually and use the audit log to distinguish events by auth method identity.
