1838266862,I_kwDOBm6k_c5tkbnu,2126,Permissions in metadata.yml / metadata.json,36199671,closed,0,,,3,2023-08-06T16:24:10Z,2023-08-11T05:52:30Z,2023-08-11T05:52:29Z,NONE,,"https://docs.datasette.io/en/latest/authentication.html#other-permissions-in-metadata says the following:
> For all other permissions, you can use one or more ""permissions"" blocks in your metadata.
> To grant access to the permissions debug tool to all signed in users you can grant permissions-debug to any actor with an id matching the wildcard * by adding this a the root of your metadata:
```yaml
permissions:
debug-menu:
id: '*'
```
I tried this.
My `metadata.yml` file looks like:
```yaml
permissions:
debug-menu:
id: '*'
permissions-debug:
id: '*'
plugins:
datasette-auth-passwords:
myuser_password_hash:
$env: ""PASSWORD_HASH_MYUSER""
```
And then I run
```zsh
datasette -m metadata.yml tiddlywiki.db --root
```
And I open a session for the ""root"" user of datasette with the link given.
I open a private browser session and log in as ""myuser"" from http://127.0.0.1:8001/-/login
Then I check http://127.0.0.1:8001/-/actor which confirms that I am logged in as the ""myuser"" actor
```json
{
""actor"": {
""id"": ""myuser""
}
}
```
In the session where I am logged in as ""myuser"" I then try to go to http://127.0.0.1:8001/-/permissions
But all I get there as the logged in user ""myuser"" is
> Forbidden
>
> Permission denied
And then if I check the http://127.0.0.1:8001/-/permissions as the datasette ""root"" user from another browser session, I see:
> permissions-debug checked at 2023-08-06T16:22:58.997841 ✗ (used default)
>
> Actor: {""id"": ""myuser""}
It seems that in spite of having tried to give the `permissions-debug` permission to the ""myuser"" user in my `metadata.yml` file, datasette does not agree that ""myuser"" has permission `permissions-debug`..
What do I need to do differently so that my ""myuser"" user is able to access http://127.0.0.1:8001/-/permissions ?",107914493,issue,,,"{""url"": ""https://api.github.com/repos/simonw/datasette/issues/2126/reactions"", ""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,completed
