thanks for the suggestion but the application which uses the REST API
protected by Keycloak will not know all the resources i defined on keycloak
to start asking permission for the closest ancestor known to Keycloak
(/Document/Administration) when it needs to know permissions for all
files/folders under /Document/Administration/Contracts/Sarah/*.
When testing Keycloak, we know that if Sarah tried to access a specific
child resource (/Dcoument/Administration/Contacts/Sarah/inventory.pdf) from
the browser then she got access denied although this specific resource is
not defined in Keycloak. Can we use any API to get this result? The
Entitlement API only allow me to ask permission for a specific
resource_set_name, not a path. If i can do this then i may be able loop
through all the files within /Dcoument/Administration/Contacts/Sarah/* to
get permission, although it gonna be a huge performance issue.

Hey,
In your application you could perform some logic that asks permissions for
the resource with URI "/Document/Administration". Right now Keycloak does
not perform any parent/child mapping between resources on the server side.
Would that work for you ?
Regards.
