Directus Request with Auth Bundle

This bundle adds a new interface for selecting and managing app secrets and an operation for making authenticated requests.

Extensions

1. App Secret Hook

Automatically manages the app_secrets collection. It ensures the collection exists and handles encryption for sensitive fields when they are created or updated.

2. Request with Auth Operation

A flow operation that allows you to make HTTP requests using credentials stored in the app_secrets collection. It supports standard HTTP methods (GET, POST, PATCH, DELETE), custom headers, and a request body. It also includes built-in retry logic.

3. Secret Selector Interface

An interface designed to select and manage credentials directly from the app_secrets collection.

4. Secret Input Interface

An interface used to securely input and handle secrets within Directus.

Requirements

• Directus 11.0.0+

Installation

Refer to the Official Guide for details on installing the extension from the Marketplace or manually.

Usage

Making Authenticated Requests

1. Create a new Flow and add the Request with Auth operation.
2. Choose a Credential from the dropdown (this pulls from your app_secrets).
3. Set the URL, Method, and any required Headers or Body.
4. (Optional) Configure Retry on Fail settings if you want the operation to retry upon a failed request.

Managing Secrets

1. Upon installation, the app_secrets collection is automatically created, but hidden from the UI.
2. You can add new secrets via the Request with Auth operation in a Flow or manually.
