Kong Event Gateway Listener Policies API declares
4 security schemes
for authenticating requests.
It accepts HTTP bearer tokens (Token) (personalAccessToken).
It accepts HTTP bearer tokens (Token) (systemAccountAccessToken).
It accepts HTTP bearer tokens (JWT) (konnectAccessToken).
It accepts HTTP bearer tokens (JWT) (serviceAccessToken).
By default, every request must be authenticated.
personalAccessToken — The personal access token is meant to be used as an alternative to basic-auth when accessing Konnect via APIs. You can generate a Personal Access Token (PAT) f…
systemAccountAccessToken — The system account access token is meant for automations and integrations that are not directly associated with a human identity. You can generate a system acc…
konnectAccessToken — The Konnect access token is meant to be used by the Konnect dashboard and the decK CLI to authenticate with.
serviceAccessToken — The Service access token is meant to be used between internal services.

Across 4 paths, the API surfaces 9 operations — 1 DELETE, 3 GET, 1 PATCH, 2 POST, 2 PUT. Each is listed below with its method, path, parameters, and response codes.
Event Gateway Listener Policies 9
Policies control how Kafka protocol traffic is modified between the client and the backend cluster. Listener policies are routing policies that pass traffic to the virtual cluster.
The contract defines 42 schemas that model the data the API accepts and returns. The most detailed are EventGatewayListenerPolicy (10 properties), EventGatewayTLSListenerPolicy (6 properties), ForwardToVirtualClusterPolicy (6 properties), EventGatewayTLSListenerSensitiveDataAwarePolicy (6 properties). Each schema is shown below with its type and property counts.
