Explanation of authorization scopes

Is there any documentation explaining meaning of authorization scopes? I couldn’t find any so far.

Hi Dimitry,

Authorization scopes are exactly same as “Role” permissions.

Users are assigned roles (collection of permissions)

Personal access tokens are directly assigned permissions (Scopes)

I couldn’t find any documentation on role permissions either. I’m looking at the documentation site, would it be somewhere else?

Role permissions is something pretty basic, hence it’s not documented. We would document it if you think it is needed?

Some of the scopes are self explanatory but some are not. But since this is related to security, I would prefer more certainty.

Can you please mention the ones which you felt require explanation, we would document those to make sure there is no ambiguity.

Explaining all of them would be the best. Here is an example how we do it in our system:

You can ignore 3 middle columns and on the left-hand side the scope and on the right is explanation of what it entails.

We have added the documentation for the authorization scopes:

Excellent. Thank you very much :+1:
