Where can I find a list of Access Arguments to be used with user_access() ? I went to the permissions page and I'm not sure what I can copy and paste from there to be used as an argument for user_access(). So far I only know two: 'access dashboard' and 'access content'

I want to find out how can we get a list of these arguments.

You can get a list of arguments for the site by running this in the terminal:

drush sqlq "select distinct(permission) from role_permission \G"

enter image description here

Make sure you clear cache after making permission adjustments. As my changes weren't showing.

    Correct me if I'm wrong, isn't the question what is the machine name for all possible permissions? Wouldn't this be better drush sqlq "select distinct(permission) from role_permission \G"

  • That's right. I'm not sure how to use distinct. That just shows all the UNIQUE results without duplicates right?

  • yes. Another way to write it would be select distinct permission from role_permission. In mysql distinct() returns all unique rows found in the resultset. it's a nice way to kill your performance. :D but here it's a great solution.
