The idea of projects is to have a vessel for all components who are closely related to each other. Multiple projects can exist within an organization.

All applications within a project share the same roles, grants, and role assignments:

  • Applications initiate the authorization flow. They could be a web application and a mobile application that share the same roles.
  • Roles define the access rights of a project and can be assigned to users.
  • Role Assignments define the association between users and their roles within a project.
  • Granted Organizations are organizations that have been granted access to a project in a different organization, allowing them to manage user role assignments for that project.
