Thank you Bill. If I want to restrict the access for my endpoint, for example:

- admin: can do anything: read, update, delete, create at my endpoints
  (on UPS)
- regular user: read only

Which approach would be the best with KC? Interceptors? Servlet filter?
Or there's something already implemented?
