# AssumeRoleWithCustomToken [![Slack](https://slack.min.io/slack?type=svg)](https://slack.min.io)

## Introduction

To integrate with custom authentication methods using the [Identity Management Plugin](../iam/identity-management-plugin.md)), MinIO provides an STS API extension called `AssumeRoleWithCustomToken`.

After configuring the plugin, use the generated Role ARN with `AssumeRoleWithCustomToken` to get temporary credentials to access object storage.

# Deploy MinIO on Chrooted Environment [![Slack](https://slack.min.io/slack?type=svg)](https://slack.min.io) [![Docker Pulls](https://img.shields.io/docker/pulls/minio/minio.svg?maxAge=604800)](https://hub.docker.com/r/minio/minio/)

# OPA Quickstart Guide [![Slack](https://slack.minio.io/slack?type=svg)](https://slack.minio.io)

OPA is a lightweight general-purpose policy engine that can be co-located with MinIO server, in this document we talk about how to use OPA HTTP API to authorize requests. It can be used with any type of credentials (STS based like OpenID or LDAP, regular IAM users or service accounts).

OPA is enabled through MinIO's Access Management Plugin feature.
