Tyk Open Policy Agent API
The Tyk Dashboard permission system can be extended by writing custom rules using an Open Policy Agent (OPA).

You can use OPA rule to accomplish tasks like: 1. Prevent users from creating keyless APIs.2. Assign specific categories to APIs created to certain user groups or users.3. Control access for individual fields. For example, do not allow changing the API active status (e.g. deploy), unless you have a specific permission set.4.
