SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill provides a robust framework for implementing fine-grained permission-based authorization in .NET applications, moving beyond simple role-based access control to offer more granular security.

Core Features & Use Cases

Custom Attributes: Use [HasPermission] attributes to declaratively define required permissions on controllers and actions.
Dynamic Policy Creation: Automatically generates authorization policies based on permission names, simplifying configuration.
Claims Transformation: Converts existing role claims into permission claims, ensuring a unified authorization model.
Use Case: Secure an API endpoint that allows users to update organization settings, ensuring only users with the specific organizations:manage_settings permission can access it.

Quick Start

Integrate the permission authorization services into your .NET application's startup configuration.

FAQPage Schema

How do I implement permission-based authorization in an ASP.NET Core API?▼

Permission-based authorization in ASP.NET Core is implemented by applying custom `[HasPermission]` attributes to controllers. The system automatically generates dynamic policies and transforms role claims into granular permission claims for validation.

What is the difference between role-based and permission-based access control in .NET?▼

Permission-based access control in .NET maps roles to specific granular permissions rather than relying on broad role checks. The system manages fine-grained access by validating specific permissions against user claims via custom policy providers.

Does this permission authorization system support .NET 8?▼

Yes, the permission authorization system supports .NET 8 and integrates directly with ASP.NET Core's built-in authorization infrastructure. It requires no external dependencies to map roles to granular permissions and validate claims.

How do I secure an endpoint so only users with specific permissions can access it?▼

To secure an endpoint with specific permissions, you declaratively apply the `[HasPermission]` custom attribute to controllers or actions. The framework dynamically creates an authorization policy to validate user claims against the required permission name.

Can I convert existing role claims into permission claims in .NET?▼

Yes, you can convert role claims into permission claims using claims transformation. This ensures a unified authorization model by mapping existing user roles to granular permissions before validating access control.

Do I need to manually configure authorization policies for each permission in ASP.NET Core?▼

No, you do not need to manually configure authorization policies for each permission. The system automatically generates dynamic authorization policies based on permission names, simplifying configuration across your .NET application.
