Class PrivacyPolicyRule<TFields, TID, TViewerContext, TEntity, TSelectedFields>Abstract
A single unit of which declarative privacy policies are composed, allowing for simple
expression and testing of authorization logic.
Remarks
Each rule is responsible for returning a ruling of ALLOW, DENY, or SKIP for a condition
that it is checking for. While rules can return any of these, it is most common for
rules to return ALLOW or SKIP, explicitly authorizing or deferring authorization to the next
rule in the privacy policy. If all rules in the policy SKIP, the policy is denied.
Returning DENY from a rule is useful in a few notable cases:
Preventing a CRUD action on an entity (AlwaysDenyPrivacyPolicyRule)
Blocking. For example, a user blocks another user from seeing their posts, and the rule
would be named something like DenyIfViewerHasBeenBlockedPrivacyPolicyRule.
