A Backend for Frontend (BFF) is a backend service tailored to a specific frontend application. It acts as an API layer between the frontend and backend services and adapts backend APIs to frontend requirements.

Permissions are a way to control access to certain features or actions within an application. They allow you to define who can perform specific actions based on their roles or other criteria. By configuring permissions, you can ensure that only authorized users can access sensitive data or perform critical operations, enhancing the security and integrity of your application.
The permissions are defined in the values.yaml file of the Helm chart. This file contains a section for permissions where you can specify the actions that users can perform on different entities.
The values.yaml file is used by the OneCX permission operator during deployment to create the necessary permissions in the Permission Management.
