How can i access the hook
const { data: user } = useGetIdentity<IIdentity | null>();
in an AccessControlProvider
import { AccessControlProvider } from "@refinedev/core";
export const accessControlProvider: AccessControlProvider = {
can: async ({ resource, action, params }) => {
console.log(resource); // products, orders, etc.
console.log(action); // list, edit, delete, etc.
console.log(params); // { id: 1 }, { id: 2 }, etc.
if (meetSomeCondition) {
return { can: true };
}
return {
can: false,
reason: "Unauthorized",
};
},
};

Hi @Joe Gaffney. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave:
----------------------
The
useGetIdentity
hook is used to get the current user's identity. However, it's not directly used within the AccessControlProvider
. Instead, it's typically used within a component to fetch the user's identity.
Here's an example of how you might use it:
In this example, useGetIdentity
is used to fetch the user's identity, which is then displayed.
If you want to use the user's identity within the AccessControlProvider
, you would need to fetch it separately and pass it in as a parameter to the can
method. However, the extracts provided do not contain an example of this.
For more information on useGetIdentity
, you can refer to the documentation (https://refine.dev/docs/authentication/hooks/use-get-identity/).

@kapa.ai how do i know the users identiy data what role they have in the accessControlProvider then
Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books:
----------------------
In the
accessControlProvider
, you can't directly use hooks like useGetIdentity
to get the user's identity. However, you can use the authProvider
's getPermissions
and getIdentity
methods inside the accessControlProvider
method.
Here's a pseudo code example from the Github issue (https://github.com/refinedev/refine/issues/3924) discussion:
In this example, authProvider.getPermissions()
is used to get the permissions of the user. You can implement this method to return the roles of the user. Similarly, you can use authProvider.getIdentity()
to get the identity of the user.
Remember, the actual implementation of these methods will depend on how you're handling authentication and authorization in your application.

console.log(resource); // products, orders, etc.
console.log(action); // list, edit, delete, etc.
console.log(params); // { id: 1 }, { id: 2 }, etc.

To use the
authProvider
's getPermissions
and getIdentity
methods inside the accessControlProvider
, you would need to import your authProvider
into the same file where you define your accessControlProvider
. Here's a pseudo code example:
In this example, authProvider.getPermissions()
and authProvider.getIdentity()
are used to get the permissions and identity of the user. You can implement these methods to return the roles and identity of the user.
Remember, the actual implementation of these methods will depend on how you're handling authentication and authorization in your application.
