The Role entity represents a set of permissions and access levels within an application.

Each role is characterized by its type, title, status, description, and associated permissions.

Roles can be system-defined, organization-specific, or tailored for different entities like brands, studios, or passport types. They enable fine-grained control over user access and actions, ensuring that users only have the necessary permissions to perform their tasks.

Hierarchy

  • BaseEntity
    • BaseRole

Constructors

Properties

createdAt: Date

Date when the role was created

deletedAt?: MaybeNull<Date>

Date when the role was soft-deleted

description?: MaybeNull<string>
id: string
organization: Promise<MaybeNull<BaseOrganization>>

The organization which the role belongs to.

organizationId?: MaybeNull<string>

The organization ID which the role belongs to.

permissionGroups: string[]

The permissionGroups property is an array of permission group IDs associated with a role. Permission groups provide a way to bundle permissions together for easier management.

By assigning a permission group to a role, users with that role will inherit all permissions defined in the group. This allows developers to modify permissions within groups without updating the role directly.

When a role has multiple permission groups, the system resolves them to a single permissions array for the user with that role, ensuring efficient access control.

permissions: string[]

The permissions property is an array of strings that holds a list of permissions associated with the role. These permissions define the specific actions and access levels that the role grants to its users, enabling fine-grained control over what users with this role can do within the application.

productId?: MaybeNull<string>

The product ID which the role belongs to.

title: string

Role title

"Editor"
type: RoleType

The type property represents the category of the role, which can be one of the following: SYSTEM, ORGANIZATION, BRAND, STUDIO, PASSPORT_TYPE, REVIEW or ORGANIZATION_GROUP. This classification helps to differentiate roles based on their scope and usage within the application.

updatedAt: Date

Date when the role was last updated
