Configuration Using Interactive CLI Tool

The CLI tool will create a v1beta1 policy, if you are interested in using v1btea2 please use Helm to deploy open-appsec, find the full instructions here.

The open-appsec configuration tool supports: - open-appsec for NGINX Ingress Controller - open-appsec for Kong API Gateway - open-appsec for Apache APISIX API Gateway

The open-appsec interactive configuration tool provides an easy way to set up open-appsec policies.
