summary: XMPP-layer access control for Prosody
---

Introduction
============

This module enforces access policies using Prosody's new [roles and
permissions framework](https://prosody.im/doc/developers/permissions). It can
be used to grant restricted access to an XMPP account or services.

This module is still in its early stages, and prone to change. Feedback from
testers is welcome. At this early stage, it should not be solely relied upon
for account security purposes.

Configuration
=============

There is no configuration, apart from Prosody's normal roles and permissions
configuration.

Permissions
