Check in All Tenants

To validate permissions irrespective of the tenant, you can use the permit.AllTenantsCheck function. This function determines if a user has permissions for a specified action on a resource across all tenants, the response will be a list of tenants in which the user is allowed to perform the request.

Simple Usage

The permit.AllTenantsCheck function accepts an individual check requests as input. The tenant key isn't required and will be ignored if provided:

Java

import io.permit.sdk.Permit;
import io.permit.sdk.PermitConfig;
import io.permit.sdk.enforcement.*;
import java.util.Arrays;


Permit permit = new Permit(
    new PermitConfig.Builder("[YOUR_API_KEY]").build()
);

List<TenantDetails> allowedTenants = permit.checkInAllTenants(
	User.fromString("john@doe.com"),
	"read",
	new Resource.Builder("document").build()
);

GoLang

package main

import (
	"encoding/json"
	"fmt"
)
import p "github.com/permitio/permit-golang/pkg/permit"
import "github.com/permitio/permit-golang/pkg/config"
import "github.com/permitio/permit-golang/pkg/enforcement"

func main() {
	// Create permit client
	permitConfig := config.NewConfigBuilder("<YOUR_API_TOKEN>").Build()
	permit := p.New(permitConfig)

	// Create user and resource variables
	user := enforcement.UserBuilder("john@doe.com").Build()
	resource := enforcement.ResourceBuilder("document").Build()

	var allowedTenants []enforcement.TenantDetails
	// Check a user's permissions for a specified action on a resource across all tenants
	allowedTenants, err := permit.AllTenantsCheck(user, "read", resource)
	if err != nil {
		fmt.Printf("Error enforcing permissions: %s", err)
	} else if len(allowedTenants) > 0 {
		fmt.Println("John is PERMITTED to create a document in some tenant in the environment")
		for i, tenant := range allowedTenants {
			attributes, _ := json.MarshalIndent(tenant.Attributes, "", "\t")
			fmt.Printf("%d. Allowed Tenant is '%s', attributes are:\n%s",
				i, tenant.Key, attributes,
			)
		}
	} else {
		fmt.Println("John is NOT PERMITTED to create a document in any tenant in the environment")
	}
}

The result will be an array containing the details about the request for each allowed tenant, including the allowed tenant's attributes.

Enforce with attributes

Java

import io.permit.sdk.Permit;
import io.permit.sdk.PermitConfig;
import io.permit.sdk.enforcement.*;
import java.util.Arrays;


Permit permit = new Permit(
    new PermitConfig.Builder("[YOUR_API_KEY]").build()
);

HashMap<String,Object> resourceAttrs = new HashMap<String,Object>();
resourceAttrs.put("colors", new ArrayList<String>(Arrays.asList("red","blue")));

List<TenantDetails> allowedTenants = permit.checkInAllTenants(
	User.fromString("john@doe.com"),
	"read",
	new Resource.Builder("document").withAttributes(resourceAttrs).build()
);

GoLang

package main

import (
	"encoding/json"
	"fmt"
)
import p "github.com/permitio/permit-golang/pkg/permit"
import "github.com/permitio/permit-golang/pkg/config"
import "github.com/permitio/permit-golang/pkg/enforcement"

func main() {
	// Create permit client
	permitConfig := config.NewConfigBuilder("<YOUR_API_TOKEN>").Build()
	permit := p.New(permitConfig)

	// Create user and resource variables with attributes
	user := enforcement.UserBuilder("john@doe.com").WithAttributes(map[string]string{
        "location": "England",
        "department": "Engineering",
    }).Build()
    resource := enforcement.ResourceBuilder("document").WithAttributes(map[string]string{
        "hasApproval": "true",
    }).Build()

	var allowedTenants []enforcement.TenantDetails
	// Check a user's permissions for a specified action on a resource across all tenants
	allowedTenants, err := permit.AllTenantsCheck(user, "read", resource);
    if err != nil {
		fmt.Printf("Error enforcing permissions: %s", err)
	} else if len(allowedTenants) > 0 {
		fmt.Println("John is PERMITTED to create a document in some tenant in the environment")
		for i, tenant := range allowedTenants {
			attributes, _ := json.MarshalIndent(tenant.Attributes, "", "\t")
			fmt.Printf("%d. Allowed Tenant is '%s', attributes are:\n%s",
				i, tenant.Key, attributes,
			)
		}
	} else {
		fmt.Println("John is NOT PERMITTED to create a document in any tenant in the environment")
	}
}

note

Currently, using relationship-based access control (ReBAC) doesn't work for the "All Tenants Check". This is because ReBAC checks are done on a specific resource that is tied to only one tenant at a time.

If the check isn't allowed for that tenant, the result will be an empty list. If it is allowed, you'll get a list with one item. To avoid this and make things run more smoothly, it's better to stick with a simpler check method.
