Grpc Credentials File Based Metadata¶

This extension may be referenced by the qualified name envoy.grpc_credentials.file_based_metadata

Note

This extension is functional but has not had substantial production burn time, use only with this caveat.

This extension does not operate on the data plane and hence is intended to be robust against untrusted traffic.
