== Providing Fallback Values When Authorization is Denied
|
||||
|
||||
There are some scenarios where you may not wish to throw an `AccessDeniedException` when a method is invoked without the required permissions.
|
||||
Instead, you might wish to return a post-processed result, like a masked result, or a default value in cases where access denied happened before invoking the method.
|
||||
|
||||
Spring Security provides support for handling and post-processing method access denied with the <<authorizing-with-annotations,`@PreAuthorize` and `@PostAuthorize` annotations>> respectively.
|
||||
The `@PreAuthorize` annotation works with implementations of `MethodAuthorizationDeniedHandler` while the `@PostAuthorize` annotation works with implementations of `MethodAuthorizationDeniedPostProcessor`.
|
||||
|
||||
=== Using with `@PreAuthorize`
|
||||
|
||||
Let's consider the example from the <<authorize-object,previous section>>, but instead of creating the `AccessDeniedExceptionInterceptor` to transform an `AccessDeniedException` to a `null` return value, we will use the `handlerClass` attribute from `@PreAuthorize`:

The same can be achieved with `@PostAuthorize`, however, since `@PostAuthorize` checks are performed after the method is invoked, we have access to the resulting value of the invocation, allowing you to provide fallback values based on the unauthorized results.
|
||||
Let's continue with the previous example, but instead of returning `null`, we will return a masked value of the email:

|

When implementing the `MethodAuthorizationDeniedHandler` or the `MethodAuthorizationDeniedPostProcessor` you have a few options on what you can return:
|
||||
|
||||
- A `null` value.
|
||||
- A non-null value, respecting the method's return type.
|
||||
- Throw an exception, usually an instance of `AccessDeniedException`. This is the default behavior.
|
||||
- A `Mono` type for reactive applications.
|
||||
|
||||
Note that since the handler and the post-processor must be registered as beans, you can inject dependencies into them if you need a more complex logic.
|
||||
In addition to that, you have available the `MethodInvocation` or the `MethodInvocationResult`, as well as the `AuthorizationResult` for more details related to the authorization decision.
|
||||
|
||||
=== Deciding What to Return Based on Available Parameters
|
||||
|
||||
Consider a scenario where there might multiple mask values for different methods, it would be not so productive if we had to create a handler or post-processor for each of those methods, although it is perfectly fine to do that.
|
||||
In such cases, we can use the information passed via parameters to decide what to do.
|
||||
For example, we can create a custom `@Mask` annotation and a handler that detects that annotation to decide what mask value to return:
