Parker on the web: full access to images limited to subscribing institutions

The "Parker on the Web" use-case - in which full access to image data is available to subscribers and authenticated applications, and size-capped access to the same image data is available to non-subscribers - is as follows:

• applies to image data only
• authentication is handled by the app currently - the app has full access to all data, and subscribed users (from approved ip ranges) can access all content in full through the app; non-subscribed (anonymous) users can access a size-capped static image
• desired state would be:
  • IIIF request from an authorized app or user would return up to full image, with all parameters enabled (rotate, etc.)
  • IIIF request from a non-auth'd app or user would return up to a specified zoom level
• We specify rights at the object level for each object in the Stanford digital repository. The default "world" rights delivered by the server s/b be the capped image size; if the app or user is authenticated to the system, more becomes available.
• If a non-auth'd app or user requests something larger than the capped size, would be nice to return the capped-size image and some sort of error message (ie. "subscription required for full access to this image").

This seems to be fulfilled by Auth 1.0. Propose that we close the issue.

Agree close, matches Auth 1.0 and support for degraded rather closely ;-)
