Custom Plugin add filter to search query by external access policies

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

Hi,
I'm wanting to create a custom plugin. The purpose is to make a rest call to an external service to apply access control polices to search requests. Is there any sample code or an article that would assist?
Appreciated

Hi,
I tried the example authorization engine in the examples. However unless I mis-understood it's functionality it doesn't seem to work. I can load the plugin. However being added to the role makes no difference to may access? Any further information regarding this example?

Just to clarify I'm refering to "security-authorization-engine" example

Hi,
So I got the security-authorization-engine example working with the test cases passing. However when I load into Elasticsearch it seems to make no difference :frowning:
I also converted it to a Maven project and set up as below. Am a missing something in the structure?

Hi,
Still no help from anyone :frowning:
As mentioned all test cases work but when I deploy it doesn't work. I've deployed the rescore plugin with no issues. Do I need to add anything to my yml file?
It deploys. Using against 7.15.0. I'm also using native realm, is that an issue? Wouldn't have thought so.
