# Which Problems Are Solved As part of the naming consistency initiative, the terms Authorization, User grants, internal authorization and other similar terms that are used in the context of assigning project roles to users are replaced by Role Assignments in the UI, API docs, and documentation. # How the Problems Are Solved By replacing the following terms with Role Assignments in API docs, Console UI, and guides. - Authorization - internal authorization - external authorization - User Grant - Roles and Authorizations By adding a note in the API docs to make it clear that Authorization within the context of Authorization Service API refers to role assignments, not to OAuth authorization as it is still used in the APIs. By updating some screenshots in documentation / guides to show "Role Assignments" instead of "Authorizations" in the UI. # Additional Changes N/A # Additional Context - Closes https://github.com/zitadel/zitadel/issues/11289 --------- Co-authored-by: Copilot <[email protected]>

Validation
- Code Quality: Run

Build Process
The docs build process automatically handling the following steps via generate:
- Downloads required protoc plugins.
- Generates gRPC documentation from proto files.
- Generates API documentation from OpenAPI specs.
- Generates index files for directory structures.
Style Guide
- Variables: Use environment variables in code snippets where possible.
- Embedded Content: Use
_filename.mdxfor content embedded in other pages (not indexed individually). - Code Embedding: Use the
fileproperty in code blocks to embed code from the repo. - Voice: Use active voice and sentence case for titles.
Refer to the Google Developer Style Guide for general guidelines.
