Abstract
The disclosed embodiments provide a system for processing application-programming interface (API) calls. During operation, the system identifies a set of transformation rules that match one or more permissions associated with a first representation of a request to an API. Next, the system applies the set of transformation rules to a first set of fields in the first representation of the request to generate a second representation of the request, wherein the second representation of the request includes a second set of fields that is different from the first set of fields. The system then triggers processing of the request using the second set of fields by a service providing the API.
