Abstract
In response to a request received from a client device to authorize a user for accessing a resource associated with a tenant, user roles of the user within the tenant are determined. For each of the user roles, user privileges the user is entitled within a capacity of the user role are determined based on static access control settings associated with the user. A tenant authorization profile associated with the tenant is accessed to determine tenant roles and tenant privileges for each tenant role. For each of the user roles that matches at least one of the tenant roles, at least one user privilege is modified based on corresponding tenant privileges of the matched tenant role. A token is generated based on the user roles and the modified user privileges and transmitted to the client device to determine whether the user is allowed to access the resource of the tenant.
