# Which Problems Are Solved
Resource management of projects and sub-resources was before limited by
the context provided by the management API, which would mean you could
only manage resources belonging to a specific organization.
# How the Problems Are Solved
With the addition of a resource-based API, it is now possible to manage
projects and sub-resources on the basis of the resources themselves,
which means that as long as you have the permission for the resource,
you can create, read, update and delete it.
- CreateProject to create a project under an organization
- UpdateProject to update an existing project
- DeleteProject to delete an existing project
- DeactivateProject and ActivateProject to change the status of a
project
- GetProject to query for a specific project with an identifier
- ListProject to query for projects and granted projects
- CreateProjectGrant to create a project grant with project and granted
organization
- UpdateProjectGrant to update the roles of a project grant
- DeactivateProjectGrant and ActivateProjectGrant to change the status
of a project grant
- DeleteProjectGrant to delete an existing project grant
- ListProjectGrants to query for project grants
- AddProjectRole to add a role to an existing project
- UpdateProjectRole to change texts of an existing role
- RemoveProjectRole to remove an existing role
- ListProjectRoles to query for project roles
# Additional Changes
- Changes to ListProjects, which now contains granted projects as well
- Changes to messages as defined in the
[API_DESIGN](https://github.com/zitadel/zitadel/blob/main/API_DESIGN.md)
- Permission checks for project functionality on query and command side
- Added testing to unit tests on command side
- Change update endpoints to no error returns if nothing changes in the
resource
- Changed all integration test utility to the new service
- ListProjects now also correctly lists `granted projects`
- Permission checks for project grant and project role functionality on
query and command side
- Change existing pre checks so that they also work resource specific
without resourceowner
- Added the resourceowner to the grant and role if no resourceowner is
provided
- Corrected import tests with project grants and roles
- Added testing to unit tests on command side
- Change update endpoints to no error returns if nothing changes in the
resource
- Changed all integration test utility to the new service
- Corrected some naming in the proto files to adhere to the API_DESIGN

# Which Problems Are Solved
Currently, users can't delete themselves using the V2 RemoveUser API
because of the redunant API middleware permission check.
On main, using a machine user PAT to delete the same machine user:
```bash
grpcurl -plaintext -H "Authorization: Bearer ${ZITADEL_ACCESS_TOKEN}" -d '{"userId": "318838604669387137"}' localhost:8080 zitadel.user.v2.UserService.DeleteUser
ERROR:
Code: NotFound
Message: membership not found (AUTHZ-cdgFk)
Details:
1) {
"@type": "type.googleapis.com/zitadel.v1.ErrorDetail",
"id": "AUTHZ-cdgFk",
"message": "membership not found"
}
```
Same on this PRs branch:
```bash
grpcurl -plaintext -H "Authorization: Bearer ${ZITADEL_ACCESS_TOKEN}" -d '{"userId": "318838604669387137"}' localhost:8080 zitadel.user.v2.UserService.DeleteUser
{
"details": {
"sequence": "3",
"changeDate": "2025-05-06T13:44:54.349048Z",
"resourceOwner": "318838541083804033"
}
}
```
Repeated call
```bash
grpcurl -plaintext -H "Authorization: Bearer ${ZITADEL_ACCESS_TOKEN}" -d '{"userId": "318838604669387137"}' localhost:8080 zitadel.user.v2.UserService.DeleteUser
ERROR:
Code: Unauthenticated
Message: Errors.Token.Invalid (AUTH-7fs1e)
Details:
1) {
"@type": "type.googleapis.com/zitadel.v1.ErrorDetail",
"id": "AUTH-7fs1e",
"message": "Errors.Token.Invalid"
}
```
# How the Problems Are Solved
The middleware permission check is disabled and the
domain.PermissionCheck is used exclusively.
# Additional Changes
A new type command.PermissionCheck allows to optionally accept a
permission check for commands, so APIs with middleware permission checks
can omit redundant permission checks by passing nil while APIs without
middleware permission checks can pass one to the command.
# Additional Context
This is a subtask of #9763
