When looking at Vault token details, which key helps you find the paths the token is able to access?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: C

When looking at Vault token details, the policies key helps you find the paths the token is able to access. Policies are a declarative way to grant or forbid access to certain paths and operations in Vault. Policies are written in HCL or JSON and are attached to tokens by name. Policies are deny by default, so an empty policy grants no permission in the system. A token can have one or more policies associated with it, and the effective policy is the union of all the individual policies. You can view the token details by using the vault token lookup command or the auth/token/lookup API endpoint. The output will show the policies key with a list of policy names that are attached to the token. You can also view the contents of a policy by using the vault policy read command or the sys/policy API endpoint. The output will show the rules key with the HCL or JSON representation of the policy.The rules will specify the paths and the capabilities (such as create, read, update, delete, list, etc.) that the policy allows or denies.Reference: https://developer.hashicorp.com/vault/docs/concepts/policies4, https://developer.hashicorp.com/vault/docs/commands/token/lookup5, https://developer.hashicorp.com/vault/api-docs/auth/token#lookup-a-token6, https://developer.hashicorp.com/vault/docs/commands/policy/read7, https://developer.hashicorp.com/vault/api-docs/system/policy8

I'm not sure, but I think it might be C) Policies, as policies define what actions are allowed.

B) Path, no doubt. Although I'd argue the real question is, 'Which key helps you find the paths the token is able to access... without falling down the rabbit hole?'

I agree with Bernardo, because the path key specifies the paths the token can access.

Is there a 'None of the above' option? I'm feeling a bit 'Vault'y today.

Hmm, I thought it would be C) Policies. Guess I need to review my Vault token documentation again.

Definitely B) Path. That's the key I was looking for to see what resources the token can access.
