Authorization defines *who* can access *what* within your application. It ensures users and roles are authenticated and authorized to perform specific actions.
This documentation covers the ASP.NET Core Authorization framework.
Different user roles (e.g., Admin, User) have different permissions.
Each role is defined within your application's user model.
Each role is assigned specific permissions.
Permissions are usually defined using roles and custom permissions.
The flow involves user authentication, authorization, and role assignment.
Consider a simple user role system:
User - Admin
User - User
Always adhere to the principle of least privilege. Grant users only the permissions they absolutely need.
