Permission List
On the basis of the principles for app permission management, apply for permissions for an app by following the procedure illustrated in the figure below.
- For details about the mapping between the app's ability privilege level (APL) and permission level, see Permission Levels.
- Permissions can be authorized by the user (user_grant) or the system (system_grant). For details, see Permission Authorization Modes.
- In principle, an app with a lower APL cannot apply for higher permissions by default. The Access Control List (ACL) makes low-level apps have high-level permissions. For details, see ACL.
The following lists the permissions defined by the system. For details about permission usage examples, see Access Control Development.
