show_permissions

A diagnostic action. It introspects what the configured EarthRanger account can see and returns the slugs and UUIDs you need to configure the pull actions. It changes nothing.

action_show_permissions — app/actions/handlers.py

What it returns

The result renders in the portal as a card with these sections:

Section	Contents
User Details	Full name, username, superuser flag (from ER /users/me).
Global Permissions	The account's permissions for event categories, event types, events, messages, and observations.
Event Categories	Each category, the event types under it, and the account's permissions on it.
Event Type Slugs	Flat list — paste into pull_events' event_types.
Event Category Slugs	Flat list — paste into pull_events' event_categories.
Subject Groups	Each group and the subjects within it (and, optionally, its sub-groups).
Subject Group UUIDs	Every group UUID, including nested ones — paste into pull_observations' subject_group_ids.

The subject-group tree is walked recursively, so nested sub-group UUIDs (which aren't reachable from a flat listing) are surfaced too — those are exactly the IDs pull_observations needs to filter by a sub-group.

How operators use it

1. Run it after auth succeeds.
2. Copy Event Type Slugs / Event Category Slugs into pull_events.
3. Copy Subject Group UUIDs into pull_observations.
4. Use User Details / Global Permissions to diagnose "why am I not seeing X?" (usually a permissions gap on the account).

Configuration — ShowPermissionsConfig

Field	Type	Default	Notes
include_subjects_from_subgroups_in_parent	bool	True	When listing a group's subjects, also include subjects from its sub-groups.
