To configure permissions for an object, create an access control list (ACL) for each user or user group that might interact with the object. Each ACL specifies a user or user group and their access rights for the object.

For example, you want the NorthDevTeam and WestDevTeam user groups to have read/write access to the NorthwestAccounts project. You create an ACL to specify the NorthDevTeam's access rights to the NorthwestAccounts project, and then create an ACL to specify the WestDevTeam's access rights to the NorthwestAccounts project.

You can use the objects resource to perform the following tasks to manage permissions:

Create ACLs for an object
Update ACLs for an object
Delete ACLs configured for an object
Get permission details for a user or user group and an object
Get your permission details for an object
