Modify existing object

Allows to invoke executeChanges operation with modify deltas for specified objects

Recompute existing object without any requested change

Allows to invoke recompute operation

http://midpoint.evolveum.com/xml/ns/public/security/authorization-model-3#test

Resource for which to execute tests

N/A

Execute resource connection test

Allows to invoke testResource operation

http://midpoint.evolveum.com/xml/ns/public/security/authorization-model-3#importObjects

N/A

N/A

Import objects from file or stream (bulk). This only allows to start the import. Each individual object also needs to pass through authorization for add action.

Allows to invoke importObjectsFromFile and importObjectsFromStream operations

http://midpoint.evolveum.com/xml/ns/public/security/authorization-model-3#importFromResource

Resource to import from

N/A

Import objects from resource. This only allows to start the import. Each individual created object also needs to pass through authorization for add action.

Allows to invoke importFromResource operation

http://midpoint.evolveum.com/xml/ns/public/security/authorization-model-3#discoverConnectors

Connector host on which to start discovery

N/A

Discover connectors installed on a specified connector host

Allows to invoke discoverConnectors operation

http://midpoint.evolveum.com/xml/ns/public/security/authorization-model-3#assign

Focal object that receives the assignment (e.g. a user)

Object which is the target of assignment (e.g. Role or Org)

Allows to create a new assignment (see note below)

Allows to invoke executeChanges operation with modify deltas for specified objects that add assignment to specified targets

http://midpoint.evolveum.com/xml/ns/public/security/authorization-model-3#unassign

Focal object from which the assignment is removed (e.g. a user)

Object which is the target of assignment (e.g. Role or Org)

Allows to delete existing assignment (see note below)

Allows to invoke executeChanges operation with modify deltas for specified objects that add assignment to specified targets

http://midpoint.evolveum.com/xml/ns/public/security/authorization-model-3#executeScript (deprecated)

N/A

N/A

Allows to execute midPoint scripts a.k.a. bulk actions

Authorizes the possibility to execute the bulk actions. See Bulk Actions Authorizations.

The assign and unassign authorizations are designed especially to allow assignment and un-assignment of specific roles and orgs, e.g. in cases of delegated administration, multi-tenancy and similar set-ups. These authorizations are a request-phase replacement for much more powerful modify authorization. E.g. assign authorization can be used to allow assignment only selected roles while modify authorization can only give blanked permission to modify the assignment property. The assign and unassign authorizations work only in the request phase. They are not effective in the execution phase. Therefore modify authorization is still needed in the execution phase. However, as the operation needs to pass both phases to be allowed this is a sufficient set-up.
