Full Permission Mapping v3
This list was created based on the visual interface of both the LMS and Studio. It includes a tentative Resource Type for each permission and organizes permissions into sections that mirror the platform’s UI structure.
It’s important to note that this is not a definitive list, but rather a working reference to guide the review of each section as the new RBAC system is implemented. For each implementation phase, it's necessary to revisit the specific actions a user needs to perform and, from that, design a categorization that makes sense for the people managing access.
This may involve splitting or grouping permissions to create a more useful tool for administrators. While some suggested Resource Types are included, these should also be reviewed during the implementation of each section to ensure alignment with user needs and system architecture.
