Question details

I’ve created a Gateway Proxy using Zuul. Gateway passes these requests to other microservices. I’ve aggregated swagger documents from all microservices on gateway proxy.

@Component
@Primary
@EnableAutoConfiguration
public class SwaggerAggregatorController implements SwaggerResourcesProvider {
    @Override
    public List<SwaggerResource> get() {
        List<SwaggerResource> resources= new ArrayList<>();

        SwaggerResource cstSwagger = new SwaggerResource();
        cstSwagger.setName("cust-service");
        cstSwagger.setLocation("/cust/cust-service/v2/api-docs");
        cstSwagger.setSwaggerVersion("2.0");
        resources.add(cstSwagger);

        return resources;
    }
}

Now this works but on Swagger UI there’s no way I can specify authorization header in format bearer: <token>.

How can I add provision to specify authorization header for all the requests?

The login form puts the token in the cookies that is later used to protect the swagger ui page

It should use the credentials from the browser. Thats how jhipster does it. Take a look at that project.
