Welcome to the OPA Discussions forum

This is the place to find answers to your OPA questions. The OPA community prides itself on sharing information. So feel free to share your insights as you grow your OPA knowledge.

Asking Questions

Check the Docs! The OPA community has put in a lot of time to create Docs for OPA and Rego. Remember to double-check the Docs and provide any relevant links with your question. Providing links makes it easy for future readers to understand what you're referencing.

Link your Rego Playground. You will have a MUCH higher chance of receiving a response if you create an example in a Rego Playground. Providing a code sample with your question removes any ambiguity and saves everyone a lot of time.

Answering Questions

Give Back! Being helpful is a core value of the OPA community. If you've found the information here useful take a second and see if you can answer a question for someone else.

Be Nice! No matter how silly or simple you think a question is, everyone deserves respect. If someone seems misguided, simply nudge them back in the right direction.

Contributing Examples

Share knowledge! Sharing is another core value of the OPA community. New members are starting their OPA journey every day and think how helpful it would have been to start with the knowledge you have now.

To contribute an example, start a thread with the question you originally had. Then in a separate post, provide the working code and instructions. You can even mark your response as the answer to let everyone know. Check this Example

Starting a Thread

Have a conversation with your peers. Starting a thread in the community category is a great way to have an ongoing discussion with a globally distributed community. Want to know who will be at the next big conference, or just looking for recommendations on which blogs to read? Start a thread, and you might find the best next read. Check this Example
