JSON PDP API request and response flow - PingAuthorize - 8.3

The JSON PDP API is implemented with both an individual decision request endpoint and a batch request endpoint that consuming application servers can access using POST requests to the /governance-engine or /governance-engine/batch paths, respectively.

The HTTP requests must include the appropriate Content-Type and Accept headers, and request bodies must be valid JSON in the expected request format.

The endpoint paths and headers are listed in the following table.

A successful JSON PDP API request goes through the following flow:

1. The client makes the JSON request, which is received by the JSON PDP API. The API forwards the request to the PDP.
2. When the PDP returns a response, the API sends the response to the client.
