Kong Gateway maintains a list of reserved entity names which can’t be used when naming Gateway entities.

For example, a Workspace can’t be named consumers or vaults. Doing so will yield a schema violation error response.

The reserved entity names are the following:

  • admins
  • applications
  • application_instances
  • audit_objects
  • audit_requests
  • ca_certificates
  • certificates
  • clustering_data_planes
  • consumer_group_consumers
  • consumer_group_plugins
  • consumer_groups
  • consumer_reset_secrets
  • consumers
  • credentials
  • developers
  • document_objects
  • event_hooks
  • filter_chains
  • files
  • group_rbac_roles
  • groups
  • key_sets
  • keyring_keys
  • keyring_meta
  • keys
  • licenses
  • legacy_files
  • login_attempts
  • parameters
  • plugins
  • rbac_role_endpoints
  • rbac_role_entities
  • rbac_roles
  • rbac_user_groups
  • rbac_user_roles
  • rbac_users
  • routes
  • services
