# Scopes

Scopes define what resources an application can access via an API.\
In OAuth 2.0, they manage permissions and enhance security.\
\
As part of your onboarding, we will determine the appropriate scope for your business.

## Usage of Scopes

1. **Access Control**: Limit access to resources, e.g., `FUSESIGN:OWN`.
2. **Granularity**: Offer different access levels.
3. **Authorization**: Users consent to requested scopes.
4. **Token Enforcement**: Tokens carry scopes to restrict access.

Scopes ensure applications request only necessary permissions, improving security and user trust.

## Available Scopes

FuseSign has the following available Scopes

<table><thead><tr><th width="212">Scope Name</th><th>Access</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>FUSESIGN:OWN</td><td><p>Only permits actions against the business and may modify any resources they have created.</p><p><br>✅ can create bundles, upload documents and perform actions on any bundles where they are the creator of that bundle.</p><p></p><p>❌ cannot perform other API actions for example modify bundles that are not theirs or perform contact or bundle search operations.</p></td></tr><tr><td>FUSESIGN</td><td>Permits actions against the business and may modify any resources within it</td></tr></tbody></table>

## Authorization

Users must authorize integrations to be allowed into their account\

This is how that will appear:\
