validation_default_mitigation_action: Literal["none", "log", "block"]

The default mitigation action used Mitigation actions are as follows:

  • "log" - log request when request does not conform to schema
  • "block" - deny access to the site when request does not conform to schema
  • "none" - skip running schema validation
One of the following:
"none"
"log"
"block"
validation_override_mitigation_action: Optional[Literal["none"]]

When set, this overrides both zone level and operation level mitigation actions.

  • "none" - skip running schema validation entirely for the request
  • null - clears any existing override

The default mitigation action used

Mitigation actions are as follows:

  • log - log request when request does not conform to schema
  • block - deny access to the site when request does not conform to schema
  • none - skip running schema validation
One of the following:
"none"
"log"
"block"
validation_override_mitigation_action: Optional[Literal["none"]]

When not null, this overrides global both zone level and operation level mitigation actions. This can serve as a quick way to disable schema validation for the whole zone.

  • "none" will skip running schema validation entirely for the request
