Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Deleting credentials, teams, execution environments, projects, job templates, and notification templates now requires delete permission. View or change permissions alone no longer allow deletion.
    • Delete capability reporting now reflects whether a user can delete an object, rather than treating edit access as deletion access.
    • Deletion permission checks now behave consistently across these object types.

Walkthrough

Delete capability reporting now uses object-level delete checks. Access classes for several resource types rely on inherited delete checks. Functional tests cover delete permissions across six resource types, and unit tests verify capability reporting.

Changes: Object-Level Delete Permissions

Layer / File(s) Summary
Delete checks and capability reporting
awx/main/access.py
get_user_capabilities now uses can_delete for delete capability reporting. Credential, team, project, execution environment, job template, and notification template access use inherited delete checks.
Delete permission coverage
awx/main/tests/functional/rbac/*, awx/main/tests/unit/test_access.py
Functional tests check delete permissions for credentials, execution environments, job templates, notification templates, projects, and teams. Unit tests check that capability reporting reflects can_delete.

Change: Bug fix

Merge Risk: Moderate · previous review edd47

When organization authentication management is disabled, a non-superuser with team delete permission can still delete teams through the API. Restore the restriction before merging.

Explanation

Docstring coverage is 66.67% which is insufficient. The required threshold is 80.00%. Docstring coverage is scoped to functions touched by this diff with cyclomatic complexity of at least 2. Documentation-only edits and deletions within surviving functions are included; unchanged diff context and fully deleted functions are excluded. Analyzed 3 functions across 8 files.

Resolution

Write docstrings for the functions missing them to satisfy the coverage threshold.

Major · Security & Privacy · Quick win

Preserve the organization-auth restriction for team deletion.

When MANAGE_ORGANIZATION_AUTH is false, a non-superuser with team delete permission can delete a team through the API. The UI reports deletion as unavailable. Restore the setting check while retaining the delete-permission requirement.
