• BasePermission - a base permission; can be added in modules; basic permissions for the IdM core, which are identical for both permissions for access into agendas and for permissions for data:
  • ADMIN - administration - includes all operations ⇒ wildcard - there is no need to list all the operations (see IdmAuthorityHierarchy)
  • COUNT - number of records - The number of entities that match the filter. We do not have to have permissions for reading a agenda and details.
  • AUTOCOMPLETE - displaying of data in the autocomplete. We do not have to have permissions for reading a agenda but we need to select it somewhere from a menu (e.g. when requesting a role we can select it but if we had only this permission, we would not see the role in the role agenda). This permission enables reading a "trimmed" detail (we might limit this).
  • READ - a permission for reading the whole log - the log is displayed in the agenda.
  • CREATE - creating of new logs in the agenda
  • UPDATE - log updating
  • DELETE - log deleting
  • EXECUTE - execute operations (start, cancel etc.)
• GroupPermission - a group (target) permission (e.g. USER, ROLE …). A group of base permissions. This group is assigned specific domain classes (e.g. IdMRole) and determines which base permissions it contains ⇒ what can be done with the given type.

  By linking a group with a base permission we get an authority - for example ROLEREAD, IDENTITYWRITE.

  A Special group is APP, which is meant for the application administrators - the authority APP_ADMIN is created by linking a group with a base permission. The authority owns all the permissions in the application.
• AuthorizationPolicy - a policy according to which the permissions for a specific agenda (attribute groupPermission) and specific domain type (attribute authorizableType) are evaluated. It determines an evaluator (AuthorizationEvaluator) with specific settings (attribute ConfigurationMap) and which base permissions (attribute basePermissions) can be acquired if the evaluation passes.

  Policies are assigned to individual roles and thanks to that the logged in user also gets them (relation identity - IR - role - policy).
• AuthorizationEvaluator - authorization "evaluator" - it is basically an implementation of the individual types of the rule described above. Each evaluator carries information about which domain type and which setting it supports. Some can also be universal for more domain types (e.g. children ofBaseEntity). In order to simplify the implementation of a rule, the class AbstractAuthorizationEvaluator has been created, which can be simply inherited when adding another rule. The main evaluators will be described below. The main evaluator methods, which must be implemented (or overloaded from AbstractAuthorizationEvaluator):
  • getPermissions(policy, authorizable) - returns a set of operations (the set BasePermission), which the currently logged in identity can perform with a given domain object according to the given policy (e.g. READ, UPDATE)
  • getPredicate(…) - returns a jpa criteria predicate, which can be "stuck" onto a where clause ⇒ the query then returns a result which can be paged and ordered. The result contains data, which we have permissions for according to the given policy. It is recommended to write the predicates as subqueries with exists, to prevent problems with joining tables (if, of course, it is not something simple).
  • supports(authorizableType) - which doamin type is supported by the evaluator
  • supportsPermissions() - returns true if the assigned permissions are supported. False - it defines them itself internally (e.g. AbstractTransitiveEvaluator).
  • getAuthorities(policy) - returns a set of operations (the setBasePermission), which the currently logged in identity could perform according to the given policy (e.g. READ, UPDATE).
• AuthorizableService - an interface for labeling a service working with entities that it supports evaluating of policies for permissions for data. This has been added mainly because of backward compatibility - permissions for data are linked to individual agendas one by one. The policies can thus be configured only for domain types with services supporting this interface.
• AuthorizationManager - loads and evaluates the set policies for the logged in identity throughout the application:
  • loads all the active policies according to the assigned user roles
  • connects predicates according to the policies into the where clause when searching or auto-completing data (AuthorizableService.findSecured(…))
  • evaluates available operations over the given domain objects on the level of REST controllers.

For some entities was added additional base permissions, which extends BasePermission above.

• PASSWORDCHANGE - permission is evaluated, when identity's password is changed.
• MANUALLYDISABLE- Deactivate identity manually. Enables bulk action and quick dashboard button.
• MANUALLYENABLE- Activate identity manually. Enables bulk action and quick dashboard button.
• CHANGEPERMISSION - permission is evaluated, when identity's permissions is changed ⇒ CHANGEPERMISSION on identity gives permissions READ, CREATE, UPDATE, DELETE to identity's role requests.
• CHANGEPROJECTION - @since 10.2.0 - Change identity form projection.
• CHANGEUSERNAME - @since 10.3.0 - Change identity login.
• CHANGENAME - @since 10.3.0 - Change identity firt name, surname and titles.
• CHANGEPHONE - @since 10.3.0 - Change identity phone.
• CHANGEEMAIL - @since 10.3.0 - Change identity eamil.
• CHANGEEXTERNALCODE - @since 10.3.0 - Change identity personal number.
• CHANGEDESCRIPTION - @since 10.3.0 - Change identity description.
• SWITCHUSER - @since 10.5.0 - logged user can login as selected user (switch user).

• CANBEREQUESTED - role, which can be requested. Used in role request and bulk actions for assign role.

• CANBEREQUESTED - role, which can be requested. Used in copying assigned roles by other identity.

• CHANGEPERMISSION - permission is evaluated, when identity's permissions is changed ⇒ CHANGEPERMISSION on contract gives permissions READ, CREATE, UPDATE, DELETE to identity's role requests.

Cache is used for evaluating authorization policies and permissions by AuthorizationManager:

• core:authorization-policy-cache - Cache stores active authorization policies of currently logged user. Cache is evicted after user log out. When authorization policies configuration is changed, then user is logged out and cache is evicted (after permissions removal only). Cache expiration is 2 hour, e.g. if user forgot to log out.
• core:permission-cache - Cache stores permissions (for data) of currently logged user. Cache is evicted after user log out. Cache expiration is 1 minute - if data structure is changed, then permissions are actualized after this duration. When authorization policies configuration is changed, cache is evicted (completely).

Adds the default implementation of the AuthorizationEvaluator methods. It is used as a parent for the other evaluators.

Serves as a parent for evaluating permissions according to the derived objects - for example, I have a permission for the assigned role if I have a permission for the identity, etc. See the children of this abstract class below (IdentityContractByIdentityEvaluator).

• Use permissions (include-permissions) - Only selected permissions can be used from owner permissions transitively. Configuration property has to be used in evaluator configuration properties (in evaluator form attributes) and getPredicate method has to check evaluated permission is selected (see IdentityContractByIdentityEvaluator for example).

Serves for assigning the configured permission for the configured domain type - for all the data of the given type. It can be used when we want to give an access to an agenda including the access to all data. It is used, for example, for an admin with the configuration - any type (permissions for all the Identifiable children) + BasePermission.ADMIN. It can also be used for assigning the base permission for displaying data during autocomplete (see BasePermission.AUTOCOMPLETE above).

"Shares" the object with the given uuid. It is suitable when we are not able to configure another, more general rule - simply put - when somebody needs to see only one log from the whole agenda, it can be "shared" via the identifier (it would be nice not to enter the uuid directly in the configuration but to use autocomplete … coming soon).

"Shares" the object with the given identifier so that it is possible to enter uuid of the code of the given entity. For this evaluator, it is necessary to choose the entity type for which it is intended - does not work across entities.

Gives currently logged user a permission to work with his own identity.

@since 10.3.0

A permission for identities by user type.

• User type (form-projection) - Add permission to selected user type or to default type (user without type is specified).

• Use permissions (include-permissions) - Only selected permissions can be used from identity permissions transitively.

@since 10.3.0

Gives a permission for identity according to the permission for identity contract ⇒ e.g. if I have a permission to read an contract, I have a permission to read its identity.

Gives a permission for guarantees of a industrial relation (setting a guarantee "directly") according to the permission for a industrial relation ⇒ e.g. If I have a permission to read IR, I have a permission to read its guarantees. AbstractTransitiveEvaluator is used here. If I have a permission to edit IR, I have a permission to edit (add or delete) its assigned guarantees.

Gives a permission for assigned roles according to the permission for the identity ⇒ e.g. If I have a permission to read an identity, I have a permission to read its assigned roles. AbstractTransitiveEvaluator is used here. If I have a permission to edit the identity, I have a permission to edit (add or delete) its assigned roles.

@since 10.3.0

Gives a permission for assigned roles according to the permission for the contract ⇒ e.g. If I have a permission to read an contract, I have a permission to read its assigned roles. AbstractTransitiveEvaluator is used here. If I have a permission to edit the contract, I have a permission to edit (add or delete) its assigned roles. Logged identity can see / edit roles assigned to managed contracts only.

@since 9.7.12

Gives a permission for assigned roles according to the permission for the role definition ⇒ e.g. If I have a permission to read an role, I have a permission to read its assigned roles. AbstractTransitiveEvaluator is used here. If I have a permission to edit the role, I have a permission to edit its assigned roles. It's usable mainly with can be requested permission - enables copying assigned roles from other identity.

• Can be requested only (can-be-requested-only) - Add permission for role requests only (can be requested). Usable, when assigned roles need to be copied from another user. Other permissions will not be added.

Gives a permission to work with roles which I guarantee. Role guarantee can be configured by:

• identity - concrete identity can be selected as role guarantee
• role - identities with selected role assigned will be role guarantees.

This evaluator solves both ways (or).

Gives a permission for authorization policies according to the permission for a role ⇒ e.g. if I have a permission to read a role, I have permission the authorization policies assigned to it. If I have a permission to edit a role, I have a permission to edit (add or delete) authorization policies assigned to it.

Gives a permission for automatic roles according to the permission for a role ⇒ e.g. if I have a permission to read a role, I have a permission to read the automatic roles assigned to it. if I have a permission to edit a role, I have a permission to edit (add or delete) the automatic roles assigned to it.

Gives a permission for application configuration (read, set…). If we want to get permissions for the secured configuration items, we need to set the parameter secured to true.

Assigns permissions for a role according to the role attribute "canBeRequested". This means that if I have a role with this evaluator, I will get permissions only for those roles the attribute of which "canBeRequested" is set to true.

Gives a permission for accounts in system according to the permission for the role ⇒ e.g. If I have a permission to read a role, I have a permission to read its accounts in system. AbstractTransitiveEvaluator is used here.

Gives a permission for accounts in system according to the permission for the role catalogue ⇒ e.g. If I have a permission to read a role catalogue, I have a permission to read its accounts in system. AbstractTransitiveEvaluator is used here.

Gives currently logged user a permission to work with his own role requests. This functionality can be configured another way - by combination RoleRequestByIdentityEvaluator and SelfIdentityEvaluator with adding permission CHANGEPERMISSION. CHANGEPERMISSION on identity gives permissions READ, CREATE, UPDATE, DELETE to identity's role requests automatically.

Gives a permission for role requests according to the permission for the identity ⇒ e.g. If I have a permission to read a identity, I have a permission to read its role requests. CHANGEPERMISSION on identity is wildcard here - it gives permissions READ, CREATE, UPDATE, DELETE to identity's role requests. AbstractTransitiveEvaluator is used here.

Gives a permission to work with role requests which I has to approve. All involved identities (approver, applicant, implementer …) will have this permission. This policy is needed for workflow approval, where approver doesn't have a permission to read applicant. Approver will be applicant's manager (guarantee) in more cases, but even some "stranger" can have approval task assigned.

Gives a permission for accounts in tree node according to the permission for the role ⇒ e.g. If I have a permission to read a role, I have a permission to read its accounts in tree node. AbstractTransitiveEvaluator is used here.

The configuration of default permissions for agendas and data for all logged in users is carried out through the default role according to the application configuration. The default role can have, similarly to other roles, configured permissions for agendas and data. After logging in, these permissions will be filled in the context of the logged-in user (authorities and authorization policies) - the role itself does not figure in the assigned roles of the user. The default role can be used mainly for adding base permissions for the autocomplete (of roles, identities) and the like.

This is a typical setting for the userRole - regular user as defined in the installation package.

If we want to read an identity profile including its assigned roles and IR, to enable password change and to request roles, it is possible to set the default role authorization policies as follows:

• Permission to read one's own identity: Users (IdmIdentity) | Displaying in autocomplete, reading, Change password, Change roles | SelfIdentityEvaluator
• Permission to read the assigned identity roles: Roles assigned to users (IdmIdentityRole)| - | IdentityRoleByIdentityEvaluator
• Permission to request roles (which can be requested): Role (IdmRole) | Can be requested | RoleCanBeRequestedEvaluator (since the version 9.7.12)

• Permission to read and solve one's requests on virtual systems: Requests on virtual systems (VsRequest) | Administration | VsRequestByImplementerEvaluator (permissions). If you don't want to display the VS requests agenda to all your users, then we recommend setting this permission to some other role which you will assign only to the VS implementers.

If you want to enable the managers of the users to read their subordinates and change their permissions on managed contracts only:

• add following permissions to the userRole:
  • Users (IdmIdentity) | View in select box (autocomplete), Read | SubordinatesEvaluator
  • Contracts (IdmIdentityContract) | View in select box (autocomplete), Read, Change roles | SubordinateContractEvaluator
  • Assigned roles (IdmIdentityRole) | - | IdentityRoleByContractEvaluator

The Helpdesk role as defined in the installation package should have following additional permissions:

The virtual system implementer (~approver) role should have following additional permissions:

• Permission to admin virtual system requests: Requests on virtual systems (VsRequest ) | Administration (all) | VsRequestByImplementerEvaluator

If we want to read and edit roles where we are a guarantee, including the assigned permissions, automatic roles and accounts on target system, the authorization policies can be set as follows:

• Permission to read guaranteed roles: Role (IdmRole) | Reading, Editing | RoleGuaranteeEvaluator

  • Automatic roles (attributes) (IdmAutomaticRoleAttribute) | Displaying in autocomplete, selections, Read | BasePermissionEvaluator
  • Rules for automatic roles (attributes) (IdmAutomaticRoleAttributeRule)| Read | BasePermissionEvaluator
• Permissions to read request for automatic roles (both):
  • Requests for automatic roles (IdmAutomaticRoleRequest) | Read | BasePermissionEvaluator

• Permission to read automatic role requests in workflow approval: Requests for automatic roles (IdmAutomaticRoleRequest) | Read, Update | AutomaticRoleRequestByWfInvolvedIdentityEvaluator. For create new or delete an automatic role request add another evaluator (for example BasePermissionEvaluator to choosed users). Add also autocomplete permission to IdmAutomaticRoleAttribute (if you use automatic roles by attributes) and IdmRoleTreeNode (if you use automatic roles by organizations.).

• Permission to admin code list items by code lists: Code lists - items (IdmCodeListItem) | - | CodeListItemByCodeListEvaluator
• Permission to admin code list extended attributes: Forms - attributes (IdmFormAttribute) | - | FormAttributteByCodeListEvaluator

If we want to enable for currently logged identity change all basic identity attributes (e.g. login, first name, surname), the authorization policies can be set as follows:

• Permission to update identity and attributes: Users (IdmIdentity) | Update, Change phone, Change personal number, Change note, Change login, Change user type (projection), Change email, Change first name, surname and titles | BasePermissionEvaluator

If we want to enable for currently logged identity read / update for some form attributes (e.g phone) from some form definition (e.g. from main definition) on identity detail (tab more information), the authorization policies can be set as follows:

• Permission to autocomplete main form definition: Forms - definitions (IdmFormDefinition) | Displaying in autocomplete, selections | UuidEvaluator - enter main definition (for identities) identifier
• Permission to update phone attribute: Forms - values (IdmIdentityFormValue) | Read, Update | IdentityFormValueEvaluator - select form definition same as above, enter phone as attributes
• and check logged user only checkbox, if currently logged user can edit just itself. Logged user will not get permissions to edit other users.

If we want to enable for currently logged identity read / update for some contract form attributes (e.g. other manager) from some form definition (e.g. from main definition) on contract detail (tab more information), the authorization policies have to be be set as follows:

• Permission to autocomplete main form definition: Forms - definitions (IdmFormDefiniton) | Displaying in autocomplete, selections | UuidEvaluator - enter main definition (for contracts) identifier
• Permission to update other manager attribute: Forms - values (IdmIdentityContractFormValue) | Read, Update | IdentityContractFormValueEvaluator - select form definition same as above and enter other manager as attributes.

Assignment of roles is normally approved by the standard approval process. The approval process may be skipped by executing the bulk action for Role assignment with unchecked Approve, but only if the user has the following permission:

• Permission to directly execute role requests: Role requests (IdmRoleRequest) | Execute | BasePermissionEvaluator

To employ permissions for data for a new domain type it is necessary:

• to implement the interface AuthorizableService for the service working with entities - is needed to use correct GroupPermission and entity type - don't reuse groups and entity types from different agendas. This requires the repository not to search for log via hql queries but via jpa criteria api (this is the main adjustment for the existing services where all the filters need to be rewritten). An example can be found in DefaultIdmAuthorizationPolicyService.
• To implement a new rule if the universal ones (see above) do not suffice. In order to simplify the implementation of a new rule, the class AbstractAuthorizationEvaluator has been created, which can be simply inherited when adding another rule. Example:

/**
 * Adds permission for creating a new role only
 *
 */
@Component
@Description("Adds permission for create new role")
public class RoleWriteNewOnlyEvaluator extends AbstractAuthorizationEvaluator<IdmRole> {	
 
	@Override
	public Set<String> getPermissions(AuthorizationPolicy policy, IdmRole entity) {
		Set<String> permissions = super.getPermissions(policy, entity);	
		permissions.add(IdmBasePermission.CREATE.getName());
		return permissions;
	}
}

• the rest is taken care of by AuthenticationManager, which finds all implementations of the rules according to the application context, offers supported types and so on.
