You can now create and manage custom Context IDs to precisely control how your applications access resources in the Sitecore Cloud Portal. This update gives you greater flexibility to define resource access, tailor integrations to specific use cases, and enforce stronger security boundaries across your solutions.
With custom context IDs, you can scope access to only the resources your application truly needs, helping you reduce exposure of sensitive APIs and separate client-side and server-side usage. This makes it easier to build clean, maintainable, and secure architectures.
For example, when integrating Sitecore Search, you can create a custom context ID that includes only Search as a resource. This allows your application to use Search capabilities without granting access to unrelated services such as content delivery or event ingestion, ensuring a focused and secure integration.
Start using custom context IDs to build more modular, secure, and scalable Sitecore solutions.
