[Cedar Doc Issue] How do i validate #43

Closed apandays closed 1 year ago

apandays commented 1 year ago

What were you trying to do?

I am trying to validate policies against the schema

What is wrong and why? There is no mention in the user guide on how to do it. Do i need to call an API or do i need to call isAuthorized?

What do we need to do to fix this? Provide guidance on how to validate, along with what is validated

Cedar requires you to call the Validate API operation (see https://docs.rs/cedar-policy/latest/cedar_policy/struct.Validator.html).

Verified Permissions calls this for you automatically whenever you create or update a policy, if you have the feature enabled, which it is by default. For more information, see https://docs.aws.amazon.com/verifiedpermissions/latest/userguide/policy-validation-mode.html.
