Anonymous authentication

Note

The article is being updated.

Below are examples of the code for anonymous authentication in different YDB SDKs.

Go (native)

Go (database/sql)

Java

Node.js

Python

Python (asyncio)

C# (.NET)

PHP

By default, anonymous authentication is used.
You can explicitly enable anonymous authentication as follows:

package main

import (
  "context"
    
  "github.com/ydb-platform/ydb-go-sdk/v3"
)

func main() {
  ctx, cancel := context.WithCancel(context.Background())
  defer cancel()
  db, err := ydb.Open(ctx,
    os.Getenv("YDB_CONNECTION_STRING"),
    ydb.WithAnonymousCredentials(),
  )
  if err != nil {
    panic(err)
  }
  defer db.Close(ctx)
  ...
}

    doWork(tableClient);

    ],
    
    'credentials' => new AnonymousAuthentication()
