Abstract
Some embodiments provide a method for gaining insight into authorization policy enforcement for application programming interface (API) calls to at least one service that includes multiple resources. The method generates a permissions graph including nodes that represent the resources and multiple users, based on two or more received authorization policies that restrict access to the service for the users. The method receives a selection of a node that corresponds to a user, and in response to the received selection, modifies the graph to display connections between the node corresponding to the user and one or more nodes associated with resources of the service that the user is authorized to access based on the authorization policies.
