Class CanUseFilter

java.lang.Object
  com.atlassian.core.filters.AbstractHttpFilter
      com.atlassian.confluence.plugins.rest.filter.CanUseFilter

All Implemented Interfaces:

javax.servlet.Filter

public class CanUseFilter
extends com.atlassian.core.filters.AbstractHttpFilter

A filter which checks if the current user is permitted to use Confluence.

If the request comes from the anonymous user and they are not permitted then a 401 error will be returned. If the request comes from an authenticated user and they are not permitted then a 403 error will be returned. This difference allows a client to perhaps offer an authentication mechanism to the anonymous user before a retry.

If the request is permitted then this filter does nothing.
