# Claim Sidecar Approval Request

> Answer a sidecar waiting on one approval request it filed. An approved request is consumed once and releases the statement, or is reserved (PROCESSING) when the body asks to reserve it; a request past its deadline is expired and never releases it; any other status is returned as it stands. It never files an approval request.

      Hoop implements Oauth2 and OIDC protocol to authenticate users in the
      system. To obtain a valid access token users need to authenticate in their
      own identity provider which is generated as a JSON response to the
      endpoint `http(s)://use.hoop.dev/api/login`. The identity provider them
      redirects the user to the callback endpoint containing the access token.


      The recommended approach of obtaining an access token is by visiting the
      Webapp main's page or using the **Hoop command line**. Example:


      ```sh

      hoop config create --api-url https://use.hoop.dev

      # save the token after authenticating at $HOME/.hoop/config.toml

      hoop login

      # show token information

      hoop config view --raw

      ```


      With an access token you could use any HTTP client to interact with the
      documented endpoints.

      The token must be sent through the `Authorization` header.


      Example:


      ```sh

      # obtain the current configuration of the server

      curl https://use.hoop.dev/api/serverinfo -H "Authorization: Bearer
      $ACCESS_TOKEN"

      ```

      Users are active and assigned to the default organization when they
      signup. A user could be set to an inactive state preventing it from
      accessing the platform, however it’s recommended to manage the state of
      users in the identity provider.


      - The `sub` claim is used as the main identifier of the user in the
      platform.

      - The profile of the user is derived from the id_token claims `email` and
      `name`.


      When a user authenticates for the first time, it performs an automatic
      signup that persist the profile claims along with it’s unique identifier.

      ​

      ### Groups


      Groups allows defining who may access or interact with certain resources.


      - For connection resources it’s possible to define which groups has access
      to a specific connection, this is enforced when the Access Control feature
      is enabled.

      - For review resources, it’s possible to define which groups are allowed
      to approve an execution, this is enforced when the Review feature is
      enabled.


      > This resource could be managed manually via Webapp or propagated by the
      identity provider via ID Token. In this mode, groups are sync when a user
      performs a login.


      ### Roles


      - The `admin` group is a special role that grants full access to all
      resources


      This role should be granted to users that are responsible for managing the
      Gateway. All other users are regular, meaning that they can access their
      own resources and interact with connections.
