# Which Problems Are Solved
Streams allow differentiating logs produced by different components of
Zitadel.
# How the Problems Are Solved
The `backend/v3/instrumentation/logging` package now exposes convenience
function for setting and getting a logger from the context. As well as
high-level functions to emit log records at various levels. When
constructing a new logger a "stream" needs to be specified:
- **runtime**: General runtime logs, such as startup and shutdown
messages. Default for logs that do not belong to the other categories.
- **request**: Logs for incoming API and HTTP requests.
- **event_handler**: Logs for event handling in projections.
- **queue**: Logs for the job queue processing.
- **event_pusher**: Logs for event pushing to the database. Disabled by
default, contains sensitive information.
Each line from the returned logger contains a `stream` field as well as
a `version` field with the current Zitadel version.
## Runtime config
Streams can be enabled by passing an array of stream names in the
runtime config. Because some log streams may contain sensitive data
(especially events), it is now also possible to mask values by their
key.
# Additional Changes
- Wrap `slogctx` in the `logging` package. (Except API error converter
packages, because of import cycle)
- Add some docs to `logging` package so other devs understand how to add
logging to Zitadel
- Add `logging.OnError` and `logging.WithError` helper functions with
`Panic()` and `Fatal()` methods, to preserve current calls in the `cmd`
packages.
- Add instance context extractor.
- Only output request details in the request info log. Request ID
remains propagated through context.
- Moved middleware functionality into protocol specific packages.
- Removed setting of URI to context in metric middleware. There were ony
setters and no getters. (Unused value)
- Reuse a single statusWriter in the middleware package for middlewares
that need to know the response status.

# Which Problems Are Solved
Currently ZITADEL defines organization and instance member roles and
permissions in defaults.yaml. The permission check is done on API call
level. For example: "is this user allowed to make this call on this
org". This makes sense on the V1 API where the API is permission-level
shaped. For example, a search for users always happens in the context of
the organization. (Either the organization the calling user belongs to,
or through member ship and the x-zitadel-orgid header.
However, for resource based APIs we must be able to resolve permissions
by object. For example, an IAM_OWNER listing users should be able to get
all users in an instance based on the query filters. Alternatively a
user may have user.read permissions on one or more orgs. They should be
able to read just those users.
# How the Problems Are Solved
## Role permission mapping
The role permission mappings defined from `defaults.yaml` or local
config override are synchronized to the database on every run of
`zitadel setup`:
- A single query per **aggregate** builds a list of `add` and `remove`
actions needed to reach the desired state or role permission mappings
from the config.
- The required events based on the actions are pushed to the event
store.
- Events define search fields so that permission checking can use the
indices and is strongly consistent for both query and command sides.
The migration is split in the following aggregates:
- System aggregate for for roles prefixed with `SYSTEM`
- Each instance for roles not prefixed with `SYSTEM`. This is in
anticipation of instance level management over the API.
## Membership
Current instance / org / project membership events now have field table
definitions. Like the role permissions this ensures strong consistency
while still being able to use the indices of the fields table. A
migration is provided to fill the membership fields.
## Permission check
I aimed keeping the mental overhead to the developer to a minimal. The
provided implementation only provides a permission check for list
queries for org level resources, for example users. In the `query`
package there is a simple helper function `wherePermittedOrgs` which
makes sure the underlying database function is called as part of the
`SELECT` query and the permitted organizations are part of the `WHERE`
clause. This makes sure results from non-permitted organizations are
omitted. Under the hood:
- A Pg/PlSQL function searches for a list of organization IDs the passed
user has the passed permission.
- When the user has the permission on instance level, it returns early
with all organizations.
- The functions uses a number of views. The views help mapping the
fields entries into relational data and simplify the code use for the
function. The views provide some pre-filters which allow proper index
usage once the final `WHERE` clauses are set by the function.

Closes https://github.com/zitadel/zitadel/issues/9014https://github.com/zitadel/zitadel/issues/9188 defines follow-ups for
the new permission framework based on this concept.
