OAuth Project & Client Permission Management
Overview
The OAuth Project & Client Permission module controls which roles can access, configure, and manage OAuth projects and client credentials within the system. Permissions are managed under System Configuration > User Roles Permission > All Permission, filtered under the Developer permission tab.
Permission Levels
Default Acess
There are two default permission tiers applied across all user roles:
| Role Type | Developer Configuration Access | View Other Projects | Manage Own Project | Manage Other Projects |
|---|
| Superadmin | Full access (default) | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ |
| Standard User | ❌ (unless granted) | ✅ (view only) | ✅ | ❌ (unless granted)
|
Available Permission Flags
The following permission flags are available under the Developer tab:
| Permission Flag | Description | Default State | Who Can Enable |
|---|
| Allow to access developer configuration | Grants access to developer-level system settings (portal.xilnex.com/Developer) | Disabled for non-superadmin account | Must be explicitly enabled by Superadmin |
| Allow to manage all OAuth Projects | Grants ability to create, edit, and delete OAuth projects and client credentials beyond the user's own | Standard users manage own projects only | Must be explicitly enabled by Superadmin
|
Permission Matrix by Use Case
| Use Case | Required Permission Flag |
|---|
| User needs to view their own and others' OAuth projects | Default (no change needed) |
| User needs to configure developer settings | Allow to access developer configuration |
| User needs to manage (edit/delete) other users' projects | Allow to manage all OAuth Projects |
| Full control (equivalent to Superadmin) | Both flags enabled |
Granting Elevated Permissions
To grant a role elevated OAuth access:
- Navigate to System Configuration > User Roles Permission > All Permission.
https://portal.xilnex.com/SystemConfiguration/UserRolesPermission/AllPermission - Select the Developer tab from the More dropdown in the top navigation.

- Locate the permission row: Allow to access developer configuration or Allow to manage all OAuth Projects.
- Check the checkbox under the target role column to enable the permission.
- Done.
Granting Access to Third-Party Developers
If your organization engages an external or third-party developer, use this permission configuration to provide scoped, least-privilege access to the portal.
- Create a new user account for the third-party developer under System Configuration > User Management > User List.
https://portal.xilnex.com/SystemConfiguration/UserManagement/UserList - Assign the account a dedicated role (e.g., Developer - External) to distinguish it from internal users. Avoid reusing existing role profiles.
- Navigate to System Configuration > User Roles Permission > All Permission and select the Developer tab.
https://portal.xilnex.com/SystemConfiguration/UserRolesPermission/AllPermission - Disable all permissions for the assigned role by unchecking all flags across the permission matrix.
Enable only the following flag:
| Permission Flag | Action | Rationale |
|---|
| Allow to access developer configuration | ✅ Enable | Grants the third-party developer access to OAuth and developer settings scoped to their own projects only |
| Allow to manage all OAuth Projects | ❌ Leave disabled (default) | Prevents the external developer from modifying or deleting projects and clients that belong to other users |
If the third-party developer is explicitly required to manage other projects or clients, additionally enable:
| Permission Flag | Action |
|---|
| Allow to manage all OAuth Projects | ✅ Enable with documented approval |
Security Advisory: Enabling Allow to manage all OAuth Projects for an external party grants them write and delete access to all OAuth clients in the system. This should only be approved with a formal access request and reviewed periodically. Revoke access immediately upon project completion.
