Pipelines and middlewares

The Web building block defines an opinionated HTTP pipeline that the playground host wires up.

Pipeline stages

The typical order in Playground.Api is:

1. Exception handling and problem details.
2. HTTPS redirection and security headers.
3. Routing, multi-tenancy, and authentication.
4. Rate limiting and authorization.
5. Auditing and logging.
6. OpenAPI, Scalar UI, and endpoints.

Customizing the pipeline

You can customize the pipeline via extension points in the Web building block, adding or removing middlewares while keeping a consistent structure across hosts.
