Abstract
Disclosed are methods, apparatus, systems, and computer-readable storage media for modifying permission sets and validating permission set assignments to users. In some implementations, a computing device receives a request to create a permission set containing one or more permissions and assign the permission set to a first user. The first user is associated with a first user constraint that defines a first group of permissions available to the first user. The computing device may determine that the permission set to be assigned to the first user does not violate the first user constraint, and may assign the permission set to the first user.
