Context Store provides the ability to limit access to context data only to authorized users, using the Avaya Breeze® platform Authorization Service (AS) snap-in.

An administrator authorizes different user groups and applications with specific access levels. This user-privilege mapping is stored in the AS snap-in and a bearer token is generated for the user or application.

When the user or application requires access to Context Store, they must supply the authorization token with the Context Store request. If the user or application is accessing Context Store for the first time, the authorization token must be requested from the ContextStoreREST snap-in. When the ContextStoreREST receives an API request, it verifies the existence and validity of the authorization token. If the token is valid, Context Store returns the data requested according to the access level that the user or application is granted
