Hi @Simon. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave:
----------------------
Refine provides an agnostic API via the
accessControlProvider
to manage access control throughout your application. This allows you to integrate different methods and libraries, including AccessControl.js.
Here's a basic implementation of the accessControlProvider
in the <Refine>
component:
In this example, the can
method is used to check if the desired access will be granted. You would replace the can
method with your own logic using AccessControl.js.
Refine also comes with a built-in CanAccess
component that can be used complementarily with the accessControlProvider
to manage access control in your app with ease. Here's an example of using the CanAccess
component:
In this example, the CanAccess
component is used to wrap the YourComponent
component. If the user has access to edit the "posts" resource, YourComponent
will be rendered. Otherwise, the CustomFallback
component will be rendered.
Please note that providing accessControlProvider
to the <Refine />
component won't enforce access control by itself; you will need to wrap protected routes with the <CanAccess />
component.
For more detailed information, you can refer to the Access Control Provider documentation (https://refine.dev/docs/authorization/access-control-provider/).

What antd components support can method on accesscontrolprovider
@kapa.ai What antd components support can method on accesscontrolprovider
Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books:
----------------------
Refine's built-in components come with access control support out of the box. For example, the
<EditButton>
component of the UI integration packages will be hidden or disabled if the user does not have access to edit the record.
The can
method from the accessControlProvider
is used to check if the user has the necessary permissions to perform a certain action on a resource. This method is used by the useCan
hook and the <CanAccess />
component to manage access control in your application.
Here's an example of how you might use the can
method with the <EditButton>
component:
In this example, the CanAccess
component is used to wrap the EditButton
component. If the user has access to edit the "posts" resource, the EditButton
will be rendered. Otherwise, the CustomFallback
component will be rendered.
For more detailed information, you can refer to the Access Control Provider documentation (https://refine.dev/docs/authorization/access-control-provider/).

@kapa.ai how to use the params in AccessControlProvider CanFuncion
Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books:
----------------------
The
params
in the can
function of the accessControlProvider
can be used to pass additional information for your access control logic.
Here's an example of how you might use params
:
In this example, params
could be used to pass additional information about the current user or the specific resource that the user is trying to access.
You can also use params
with the useCan
hook:
In this example, params
is used to pass an optional parameter to the can
function.
For more detailed information, you can refer to the Access Control Provider documentation (https://refine.dev/docs/authorization/access-control-provider#usage) and the useCan hook documentation (https://refine.dev/docs/authorization/hooks/use-can#params).

@kapa.ai how to integrate can into List antd
Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books:
----------------------
The
can
method from the accessControlProvider
can be used in conjunction with the List
component from Ant Design to control access to certain features.
For example, the canCreate
and createButtonProps
properties of the List
component can be used to add a create button inside the List
component and customize it. The canCreate
property can be set based on the permissions of the user.
Here's an example:
In this example, the canCreate
property is set to true
if the user has the "admin" permission, allowing them to see the create button. The createButtonProps
property is used to customize the create button.
For more detailed information, you can refer to the List component documentation (https://refine.dev/docs/ui-integrations/ant-design/components/basic-views/list#cancreate-and-createbuttonprops).

@kapa.ai so if i wanted, for example only admin can access user page. How will I do ?
Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books:
----------------------
You can use the
<CanAccess />
component from Refine to wrap the user page. This component will check if the current user has the necessary permissions to access the page. If the user does not have the necessary permissions, a fallback component will be rendered instead.
Here's an example:
In this example, the CanAccess
component is used to wrap the user page content. If the user has access to show the "users" resource, the user page content will be rendered. Otherwise, a message saying "You are not authorized to view this page." will be rendered.
You would need to define the can
method in your accessControlProvider
to return true
for users with the "admin" role and false
for all other users.
For more detailed information, you can refer to the CanAccess component documentation (https://refine.dev/docs/authorization/components/can-access).
