title: Protocol Buffers API

<!-- This file is generated. Please edit the .proto files instead to update the documentation -->
The API is divided into the
[read APIs](../concepts/25_api-overview.mdx#read-apis) and
[write APIs](../concepts/25_api-overview.mdx#write-apis). Each service is
annotated with the API it belongs to.

| object | [string](#string) | | The object related by this tuple. It is an object in the namespace of the tuple. |
| relation | [string](#string) | | The relation between an Object and a Subject. |
| subject | [Subject](#ory.keto.acl.v1alpha1.Subject) | | The subject related by this tuple. A Subject either represents a concrete subject id or a `SubjectSet` that expands to more Subjects. |

## ory/keto/acl/v1alpha1/check_service.proto
### CheckService
The service that performs authorization checks based on the stored Access
Control Lists.
This service is part of the
[read-APIs](../concepts/25_api-overview.mdx#read-apis).

| ----------- | --------------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------- |
| Check | [CheckRequest](#ory.keto.acl.v1alpha1.CheckRequest) | [CheckResponse](#ory.keto.acl.v1alpha1.CheckResponse) | Performs an authorization check. |
### CheckRequest
The request for a CheckService.Check RPC. Checks whether a specific subject is
related to an object.
| Field | Type | Label | Description |
| --------- | ----------------------------------------- | ----- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| namespace | [string](#string) | | The namespace to evaluate the check.<br/>Note: If you use the expand-API and the check evaluates a RelationTuple specifying a SubjectSet as subject or due to a rewrite rule in a namespace config this check request may involve other namespaces automatically. |
| object | [string](#string) | | The related object in this check. |
| relation | [string](#string) | | The relation between the Object and the Subject. |
| subject | [Subject](#ory.keto.acl.v1alpha1.Subject) | | The related subject in this check. |
| latest | [bool](#bool) | | This field is not implemented yet and has no effect. <!-- Set this field to `true` in case your application needs to authorize depending on up to date ACLs, also called a "content-change check".<br/>If set to `true` the `snaptoken` field is ignored, the check is evaluated at the latest snapshot (globally consistent) and the response includes a snaptoken for clients to store along with object contents that can be used for subsequent checks of the same content version.<br/>Example use case: - You need to authorize a user to modify/delete some resource and it is unacceptable that if the permission to do that had just been revoked some seconds ago so that the change had not yet been fully replicated to all availability zones. --> |
| snaptoken | [string](#string) | | This field is not implemented yet and has no effect. <!-- Optional. Like reads, a check is always evaluated at a consistent snapshot no earlier than the given snaptoken.<br/>Leave this field blank if you want to evaluate the check based on eventually consistent ACLs, benefiting from very low latency, but possibly slightly stale results.<br/>If the specified token is too old and no longer known, the server falls back as if no snaptoken had been specified.<br/>If not specified the server tries to evaluate the check on the best snapshot version where it is very likely that ACLs had already been replicated to all availability zones. --> |
| max_depth | [int32](#int32) | | The maximum depth to search for a relation.<br/>If the value is less than 1 or greater than the global max-depth then the global max-depth will be used instead. |
### CheckResponse
The response for a CheckService.Check rpc.
| Field | Type | Label | Description |
| --------- | ----------------- | ----- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| allowed | [bool](#bool) | | Whether the specified subject (id) is related to the requested object.<br/>It is false by default if no ACL matches. |
| snaptoken | [string](#string) | | This field is not implemented yet and has no effect. <!-- The last known snapshot token ONLY specified if the request had not specified a snaptoken, since this performed a "content-change request" and consistently fetched the last known snapshot token.<br/>This field is not set if the request had specified a snaptoken!<br/>If set, clients should cache and use this token for subsequent requests to have minimal latency, but allow slightly stale responses (only some milliseconds or seconds). --> |

| max_depth | [int32](#int32) | | The maximum depth of tree to build.<br/>If the value is less than 1 or greater than the global max-depth then the global max-depth will be used instead.<br/>It is important to set this parameter to a meaningful value. Ponder how deep you really want to display this. |
| snaptoken | [string](#string) | | This field is not implemented yet and has no effect. <!-- Optional. Like reads, a expand is always evaluated at a consistent snapshot no earlier than the given snaptoken.<br/>Leave this field blank if you want to expand based on eventually consistent ACLs, benefiting from very low latency, but possibly slightly stale results.<br/>If the specified token is too old and no longer known, the server falls back as if no snaptoken had been specified.<br/>If not specified the server tries to build the tree on the best snapshot version where it is very likely that ACLs had already been replicated to all availability zones. --> |
