You can either grant permissions to principals (or groups/roles) globally. Those permissions can be used in multiple ways: * To protect Views. You can only access views you have permissions for (e.g. <browser:page ...> ) * To protect attributes/methods of classes (*not objects*) (<class ...><required interface=...>) * To define, who is allowed to modify certain attributes (<class ...><required set_schema=...> ) Additionally you may grant permissions (and role memberships) on a per object (*not per class*) basis ( using e.g. the grant.html-View) which effects only a single object.
