What is Fine-Grained Authorization?
Fine-grained authorization is a way to control access to resources at a very detailed level. Instead of just giving broad permissions to groups or roles, it allows specific rules to decide what a user can or cannot do. For example, a user may be able to view reports from their own region but not edit or delete them. Or access could be limited based on factors like customer ID, project, or time of day.
