Query the database directly** After running `superset init` (which calls [`sync_role_definitions`](https://github.com/apache/superset/blob/829e4d92d91ceae4b43b1ed3b063ffe45377799c/superset/security/manager.py#L1098-L1123) to create and sync all permissions), all available permission/view pairs live in the metadata DB: ```sql SELECT p.name AS permission, v.name AS view_menu FROM ab_permission_view pv JOIN ab_permission p ON pv.permission_id = p.id JOIN ab_view_menu v ON pv.view_menu_id = v.id ORDER BY v.name, p.name; ``` You can filter with `WHERE v.name LIKE '%Dashboard%'` to narrow results. **2. Use the security manager in a Python shell** ```bash superset shell ``` ```python from superset import security_manager as sm # Dump all permissions for a specific role (great starting point) gamma = sm.find_role("Gamma") for pvm in gamma.permissions: print(f"{pvm.permission.name} | {pvm.view_menu.name}") ``` The Gamma role is computed by `_is_gamma_pvm` which excludes admin-only, alpha-only, SQL Lab-only, and object-specific permissions — making it a good baseline for custom roles [[1]](https://github.com/apache/superset/blob/829e4d92d91ceae4b43b1ed3b063ffe45377799c/superset/security/manager.py#L1298-L1312). **3. Check via the Superset UI** Go to **Security → List Roles**, click **Edit** on any role (e.g. Gamma or Alpha), and the Permissions field shows all assigned permission/view pairs. You can search interactively to discover what's available [[2]](https://github.com/apache/superset/discussions/42765#discussioncomment-17899926). **Common permission/view pairs for reference:** | What you want | Permission | View | |---|---|---| | View dashboards | `can_read` | `Dashboard` | | View charts | `can_read` | `Chart` | | Explore/run queries on charts | `can_explore_json` | `Superset` | | SQL Lab access | `can_sqllab` | `Superset` | | Bootstrap/current user info | `can_read` | `CurrentUserRestApi` | | Log activity | `can_log` | `Superset` | [[3]](https://github.com/apache/superset/discussions/40701#discussioncomment-17160724) There are also hardcoded sets in the [`SupersetSecurityManager`](https://github.com/apache/superset/blob/829e4d92d91ceae4b43b1ed3b063ffe45377799c/superset/security/manager.py#L241-L388) class that define how permissions map to built-in roles — for example, `SQLLAB_ONLY_PERMISSIONS` lists all SQL Lab-specific pairs like `(can_sqllab, Superset)` and `(can_execute_sql_query, SQLLab)` [[4]](https://github.com/apache/superset/blob/829e4d92d91ceae4b43b1ed3b063ffe45377799c/superset/security/manager.py#L346-L373), and `create_custom_permissions` registers pairs like `can_share_dashboard`/`Superset`, `can_view_query`/`Dashboard`, and `can_drill`/`Dashboard` [[5]](https://github.com/apache/superset/blob/829e4d92d91ceae4b43b1ed3b063ffe45377799c/superset/security/manager.py#L1032-L1047). The safest approach for building a custom role is to **dump the Gamma role's permissions** as a baseline, then add or remove specific entries for your needs. <!-- Dosu Comment Footer --> *To reply, just mention [@dosu](<https://go.dosu.dev/dosubot?utm_source=github&utm_medium=bot-comment&utm_campaign=github-comment-footer-20260415&utm_content=reply-with-mention&utm_term=apache%2Fsuperset>).* --- Share context across your team and agents.
