  • Supported parameters
  • Extension specification
  • Use cases

The x-yc-apigateway:smartWebSecurity extension uses rules set in the Yandex Smart Web Security security profile to protect an API gateway. For example, you can use the basic rules to block unwanted traffic or Advanced Rate Limiter to limit the number of requests.

You only pay for those requests to an API gateway that were checked and not blocked. There is a separate fee for using the security profile as per the Yandex Smart Web Security pricing policy.
