|
- New Access Control guide (docs/1.8.0/security/access-control): super-user, read-only SQL users/roles, table/path grants & denies (deny-wins), anonymous access, OIDC, and the BEACON_AUTH_*/BEACON_OIDC_* config reference - Wire the Security section into the VitePress sidebar; cross-link from the introduction and the configuration reference - Changelog + release blog: add auth & RBAC, plus the non-SELECT output-format error (#318) and super_type Arrow fixes (#319)
Document token validation flow (kid/JWKS lookup, signature, iss/aud/exp), dotted-path username/roles claims (array or space-delimited), JWKS caching (TTL, no I/O on the hot path), and Basic-vs-Bearer composite routing. Note that an invalid token returns 401 and does not fall back to anonymous.
Drop the standalone top-level Security nav section; instead link the Access Control guide from Data Lakehouse Setup (Enforcement/Roles/OIDC/Config) and from the SQL Guide DDL group (Users, Roles & Grants: CREATE USER/ROLE, GRANT/DENY).
- Add an inline Quick Start chapter (run -> add data -> explore in admin UI -> query over HTTP), mirroring the repo QUICKSTART - Mention the bundled admin UI at /admin in the Quick Start and Local flows, plus a 'secure your instance' note; cross-link the Admin Web UI page - Add a Quick Start entry to the Getting Started sidebar; expand Next steps
