Create a Route

These examples require that you have jq installed on your machine. You can also use the Konnect UI to configure services and routes.

Once your DataPlane is deployed it receives configuration from Konnect, but there are no routing rules available for Kong Gateway to proxy traffic. You can use Konnect API to configure and test routing.

Before you begin

In Gateway Manager, navigate to the Overview page of the control plane to which you added the data plane.
Copy the ID of the control plane in the About this Hybrid Control Plane section.
Set the value of the variable CP_UUID to the ID of the control plane that you copied.
```
 export CP_UUID="a62e9a4c-d47..."
```
Generate a personal access token to use the Konnect API.
Set the value of the variable KONNECT_TOKEN to the personal access token that you generated.
```
 export KONNECT_TOKEN="kpat_pYyaCgDWv..."
```

Create Kong Entities

Create a service and a route in your Konnect control plane using the variables that you set.

The following commands create a service named Sample and a route that proxies all traffic to httpbin.konghq.com:

SERVICE_ID=$(curl -sS -H "Authorization: Bearer $KONNECT_TOKEN" https://us.api.konghq.com/v2/control-planes/$CP_UUID/core-entities/services -d name=Sample -d url=https://httpbin.konghq.com | jq -r .id)

curl -sS -H "Authorization: Bearer $KONNECT_TOKEN" https://us.api.konghq.com/v2/control-planes/$CP_UUID/core-entities/services/$SERVICE_ID/routes -d "paths[]=/"

Send test traffic

After the service and route are created, send traffic to the proxy and it will forward the request to httpbin.konghq.com. You can use httpbin’s /anything endpoint to echo the request made in the response.

To make a request to the proxy, fetch the LoadBalancer IP address using kubectl get services:

export PROXY_IP=$(kubectl get services -n kong -o json | jq -r '.items[] | .status.loadBalancer?|.ingress[]?|.ip')
echo "Proxy IP: $PROXY_IP"

Note: If your cluster can’t provision LoadBalancer type Services, then you might not receive an IP address.

Test the routing rules by sending a request to the proxy IP address:

curl $PROXY_IP/anything/hello

Delete the test service

You can delete the test service after you verify that Kong Gateway Operator and Konnect are working.

To delete the Sample service.

curl -sS -H "Authorization: Bearer $KONNECT_TOKEN" https://us.api.konghq.com/v2/runtime-groups/$CP_UUID/core-entities/services/$SERVICE_ID -X DELETE

Next steps

Now that you have a DataPlane that has configuration from Konnect you can explore all of the capabilities that Kong Gateway provides.
