What problem does it solve?
It addresses the challenge of securely controlling access to user and organization data in multi-user web applications, ensuring privacy and proper permissions are maintained.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Restrict Data Access: Implements filtering of database queries based on user identity and organizational scoping.
- Ownership Enforcement: Verifies resource ownership during write operations to prevent unauthorized modifications.
- Multi-Tenancy: Structures applications to serve multiple organizations, isolating data at the database level.
- Audit Trail Integration: Supports tracking and logging of user data access and modifications for compliance and security auditing.
- Use Case: When building a multi-tenant SaaS platform, developers can apply this pattern to ensure users only access their own data and administrators can bypass restrictions when necessary.
Quick Start
Use the user-scoped-data-filtering skill to implement secure data access patterns in your FastAPI application, leveraging JWT-based user context extraction and SQLAlchemy query customization.
