# Permissions Auditing
|
|
|
|
Access to most of Alliance Auth's features is controlled by Django's permissions system. To help you secure your services, Alliance Auth provides a permission auditing tool.
|
|
|
|
This is an optional app that needs to be installed.
|
|
|
|
To install it add `'allianceauth.permissions_tool',` to your `INSTALLED_APPS` list in your auth project's settings file.
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
### Access
|
|
|
|
To grant users access to the permission auditing tool, they will need to be granted the `permissions_tool.audit_permissions` permission or be a superuser.
|
|
|
|
When a user has access to the tool, they will see the "Permissions Audit" menu item.
|
|
|
|
### Permissions Overview
|
|
|
|
The first page gives you a general overview of permissions and how many users have access to each permission.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
**App**, **Model** and **Code Name** contain the internal details of the permission while **Name** contains the name/description you'll see in the admin panel.
|
|
|
|
**Users** is the number of users explicitly granted this permission on their account.
|
|
|
|
**Groups** is the number of groups with this permission assigned.
|
|
|
|
**Groups Users** is the total number of users in all of the groups with this permission assigned.
|
|
|
|
Clicking on the **Code Name** link will take you to the [Permissions Audit Page](#permissions-audit-page)
|
|
|
|
### Permissions Audit Page
|
|
|
|
The permissions audit page will give you an overview of all the users who have access to this permission either directly or granted via group membership.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Please note that users may appear multiple times if this permission is granted via multiple sources.
|
|
|
|
