This page explains each field in the Edit Permission page where you configure permission policies for your organization.

Accessing the Permission Configuration​

To access the permission configuration page:

  1. Log in to your Casdoor instance
  2. Navigate to Permissions in the sidebar
  3. Click Add to create a new permission or click on an existing permission to edit it

Permission Edit Page

Configuration Fields​

Basic Information​

Organization​

The name of the organization to which the policy belongs. 組織は複数の権限ポリシーファイルを持つことができます。 You can select the organization from the dropdown menu in the Edit Permission page.

Name​

The globally unique name of the permission policy in the organization. ポリシーファイルを識別するために使用されます。

  • Must be unique within the organization
  • Used as the identifier when calling Casbin APIs

Display name​

A user-friendly name for the permission policy. This is shown in the Casdoor Web UI for better readability.

Model and Storage Configuration​

Model​

The name of the model file that describes the structure and matching patterns of the permission policy. You can configure models in the Edit Model page.

Models define how permission checks are performed. For example:

  • Simple ACL (Access Control List)
  • RBAC (Role-Based Access Control)
  • ABAC (Attribute-Based Access Control)

Learn more about models in the Casbin documentation.

ヒント

Use the Casbin Online Editor to create and test your model before adding it to Casdoor.

Adapter​

Attention! In the current version, this field describes the name of the database table that stores the permission policy, rather than the name of the adapter configured in the Adapters page in the Casdoor Web UI.

Casdoor uses its own database to store configured permission policies:

  • If this field is empty, the permission policy will be stored in the permission_rule table
  • If specified, it will be stored in the specified database table
  • If the specified table name does not exist in the database used by Casdoor, it will be created automatically
注意

Important

We strongly recommend specifying different adapters (table names) for different models, as keeping all policies in the same table may cause conflicts.

Learn more about adapters in the Adapter documentation.

Subject Configuration​

These fields define who the permission policy applies to.

Sub users​

Which users will the permission policy be applied to. You can select specific users from the Edit Permission page.

Examples:

  • Select specific users like alice, bob
  • Leave empty to not restrict by user

Sub roles​

If the RBAC (Role-Based Access Control) model is used, you can select which roles will be applied to the permission policy. You configure roles in the Edit Role page.

This will add permission policies such as g, user, role for every user in this role.

Examples:

  • Select roles like admin, editor, viewer
  • All users with these roles will inherit the permissions
ヒント

Role-Based Permissions

Using roles is a powerful way to manage permissions at scale. Instead of assigning permissions to individual users, you assign them to roles, and then assign roles to users.

Sub domains​

Which domains will the permission policy be applied to. This is useful for multi-tenant scenarios.

Examples:

  • domain1, domain2
  • Leave empty if not using domain-based access control

Object and Action Configuration​

These fields define what resources and what actions are controlled by the policy.

Resource type​

In the current version, Casdoor does not use this field for external applications that want to authenticate. You can ignore it for now or use it for your own categorization purposes.

Resources​

This field describes the resources for which you wish to enforce permission control.

注

Note that the resources here are not those configured in the Resources page of the Casdoor Web UI. You can add any string you want here, such as:

  • A URL: /api/users, /admin/dashboard
  • A file name: document.pdf, config.yaml
  • A resource identifier: project:123, database:users

You can add multiple resources, and Casdoor will create permission rules for each combination of resource and action.

Actions​

This field describes the actions to operate on resources. Similar to resources, it can be any string you want, such as:

  • HTTP methods: GET, POST, PUT, DELETE
  • CRUD operations: read, write, update, delete
  • Custom actions: view, edit, approve, publish
注意

Please note that Casdoor will convert all these strings to lowercase before storing them. Additionally, Casdoor will apply all actions to each resource. You cannot specify that an action only takes effect on certain resources in this configuration page.

If you need fine-grained control over action-resource combinations, you should define this in your Model file.

Effect Configuration​

Effect​

This option takes effect for Casdoor itself to control application access.

情報

If you want an external application to enforce permission controls using the interface Casdoor exposes, this field won't do anything. You should describe the effect of pattern matching in the Model file using allow or deny rules.

Example Configuration​

As you can see, this configuration page is almost tailor-made for the (sub, obj, act) model, which is one of the most common permission models.

Here's an example configuration:

  • Model: rbac_model (Role-Based Access Control)
  • Sub roles: admin, editor
  • Resources: /api/users, /api/posts
  • Actions: read, write

This would allow users with the admin or editor role to perform read and write actions on the /api/users and /api/posts resources.
