Requirements

​
Networking

Certain ports must be accessible to connect to Formal Resources. You can listen on multiple ports simultaneously for various Resources. For accessing Redis, you may assign any port except 8080 (Connector’s health check port). Ensure your security groups are configured to allow traffic on the designated port.

​
Connect to Redis

​
redis-cli

To connect using redis-cli, execute the following command: 
redis-cli -h CONNECTOR_HOSTNAME -p PORT -a FORMAL_PASSWORD
Make sure to replace CONNECTOR_HOSTNAME, PORT, and FORMAL_PASSWORD with the right values. To learn more about users, check out Native Users.
You can access your Formal Credentials in the Formal console.
You are free to use any preferred client.

Formal supports the following policy evaluation stages for Redis:
  • Session: Evaluate and enforce policies at connection time
