Features / Access inventory
Make the access a person or workload has understandable as specific memberships, roles or permissions on resources.
Explore the design intent, review practical decisions and validate exact behavior against your deployed configuration.
Why it matters
Broad labels such as “admin” hide the resource and actions a user can actually reach. That makes review and least-privilege decisions difficult.
Design intent
Represent grants with enough context to identify subject, resource, role, scope, source and lifecycle. Keep assignments distinguishable so one can be removed without unintentionally removing unrelated access.
Worked scenario
An access review shows the user’s role on a named resource and who or what granted that association.
Boundary to verify
Confirm enforcement at the relevant server, API, resource or operational decision point. A hidden button or an informative dashboard is not, by itself, an authorization control.
Practical path
Use these stages as a review guide. Exact settings and enforcement points depend on the configured deployment and connected systems.
Identify the actor, target resource and operation that entitlements is meant to govern.
Represent grants with enough context to identify subject, resource, role, scope, source and lifecycle. Keep assignments distinguishable so one can be removed without unintentionally removing unrelated access.
An access review shows the user’s role on a named resource and who or what granted that association. Also test the path that should be denied, deferred or sent for review.
Check that the resulting state is understandable and that the decision can be investigated later. For audit-enabled operations, confirm the relevant actor and context are captured.
Before rollout
A capability is easier to operate when ownership, failure behavior and verification are defined upfront.
This page describes a design approach based on WebFrolic’s documented product model. Verify feature availability and exact behavior in your environment before relying on it for a control requirement.

Evaluate with your scenario
Share the identities, resource boundary and decision you want to test. The walkthrough can focus on the relevant behavior rather than a generic feature tour.
