To rephrase my question above, do indirect relationships have to be explicitly added? Using the example OPL is not working as expected for me, at least with the golang sdk.

my understanding from @steep-lamp-91158’s responses in my thread is that the functionality you're mentioning doesn't work yet. I think as you said you'd have to manually add relations or traverse what the rewrites (permits) are doing through application code. While not a deal killer I think it would be great to add: • The ability to evaluate permits in the List and Expand APIs • The ability to do bulk queries with a single Check (so I can check for "*" and a specific subject when looking for access on something in case it's "public")

Thanks for the response! Interesting, seems like a pretty basic feature, and the docs really make it seem like this is how it works… Could @steep-lamp-91158 (or anyone else from Ory) help clarify this? e.g. if I have a permission model like in this official example, do I have to explicitly add a permit that gives a user “share” permissions on a document, even if the user has the “owner” relationship on the document’s parent folder?

I have answered on the original thread
