How can I implement authentication roles in a Flask RESTful API?

You can implement authentication roles in a Flask RESTful API using Flask-JWT-Extended. This allows you to manage user roles effectively.

What are the steps to set up Flask-JWT-Extended?

First, install Flask-JWT-Extended, then configure your Flask app to use it. Create user models with roles and set up token creation.

How do I restrict access based on roles?

You can use the @jwt_required() decorator along with role-checking logic in your route handlers to restrict access.

Can you give me an example of a role-based access control implementation?

Sure! You can create a route that only allows access to users with the 'admin' role by checking the user's role in the request.
