Making of the Ory Permissions Language
When checking for authorization, you want the permissions system (such as Ory Keto or Ory Cloud Permissions) to consider "implicit" permissions gained through, e.g., role assignments. Such rules are application-specific: Whether or not an "editor" can "delete" a resource or just "edit" is up to the domain.Thus, we have created the Ory Permission Language to express such rules. In this talk, we want to share our design process, from user interviews to case studies and competitor analysis, all the way to the implementation.We'll end the session with a quick demo of how you can make use of the Ory Permission Language today, whether you are in the Ory Cloud or on-prem.
