Permissions

A string on the basis of which access control is enforced. The agent decides the granularity of the permissions that it provides.

A permission could be as fine-grained as UpdateConfig which is applicable to only one operation, or it could be as coarse-grained as Full Control which applies to the entire system. A Privilege is a collection of permissions that are applicable to an object or a collection of objects.

  1. Adding Permissions to a User-Defined Role

  2. Deleting Permissions
    You can delete permissions for a role that is defined by the user, but not the permissions contributed by the agent.
  3. Viewing Permissions
    You can view permissions contributed by an agent.
