}

envoy_grpc

(config.core.v3.GrpcService.EnvoyGrpc) Envoy’s in-built gRPC client. See the gRPC services overview documentation for discussion on gRPC client selection.

Precisely one of envoy_grpc, google_grpc must be set.

google_grpc

(config.core.v3.GrpcService.GoogleGrpc) Google C++ gRPC client See the gRPC services overview documentation for discussion on gRPC client selection.

Precisely one of envoy_grpc, google_grpc must be set.

timeout: (Duration) The timeout for the gRPC request. This is the timeout for a specific request.

initial_metadata: (repeated config.core.v3.HeaderValue) Additional metadata to include in streams initiated to the GrpcService. This can be used for scenarios in which additional ad hoc authorization headers (e.g. x-foo-bar: baz-key) are to be injected. For more information, including details on header value syntax, see the documentation on custom request headers.

retry_policy: (config.core.v3.RetryPolicy) Optional default retry policy for streams toward the service. If an async stream doesn’t have retry policy configured in its stream options, this retry policy is used.

  "retry_policy": {...}
}

cluster_name: (string, REQUIRED) The name of the upstream gRPC cluster. SSL credentials will be supplied in the Cluster transport_socket.

authority: (string) The :authority header in the grpc request. If this field is not set, the authority header value will be cluster_name. Note that this authority does not override the SNI. The SNI is provided by the transport socket of the cluster.

retry_policy: (config.core.v3.RetryPolicy) Indicates the retry policy for re-establishing the gRPC stream This field is optional. If max interval is not provided, it will be set to ten times the provided base interval. Currently only supported for xDS gRPC streams. If not set, xDS gRPC streams default base interval:500ms, maximum interval:30s will be applied.
