Hi @Jaoc1811. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave:

Yes, you can set a default resource based on the user's role or permissions in refine. You can use the
authProvider
's getPermissions()
method to fetch user roles. This method is already defined for you by @refinedev/supabase
when you bootstrap your refine app with CLI. Here is how the default getPermissions
method in authProvider
looks like:
However, Supabase does not support setting user roles to users
in the auth.users
table by default. So, you have to set up custom user roles. One way to implement this is with Supabase Custom Claims.
Once you have the user roles set up, you can use the Access Control feature to control the visibility of resources based on user roles. For example, in the AccessControlProvider
, you can define the can
method to check if a user has access to a resource:
In this example, the can
method checks if the user's role matches the resource's prefix (either 'user/' or 'admin/'). If it does, the user has access to the resource, and the resource will be visible in the side menu.
For more information, you can refer to the following sources:
- Authorization Guide in Refine Documentation (https://refine.dev/docs/guides-concepts/authorization#sider)
- User Permissions with Supabase in Refine Blog Post (https://refine.dev/blog/refine-pixels-6#user-permissions-with-supabase-in-refine)
