// Example: Add "Update" permission for the "Content hub"
//        application to users with the "DigitalChannelManager" role.

// Prerequisites:
//  1.  Add the following namespace: `using Kentico.Xperience.Admin.Base.UIPages;`.
//  2.  Check the `UI tree` under the `System` application in the Xperience administration
//    for the class that represents the application under "Back-end page definition".
//  3.  Check "Role management" application to see the available permissions for the given application.


// Gets a `RoleInfo` object representing the "DigitalChannelManager" role
RoleInfo selectedRoleInfo = roleInfoProvider.Get("DancingGoat.DigitalChannelManager");

// Gets the `IDENTIFIER` constant for the selected application
string applicationName = Kentico.Xperience.Admin.Base.UIPages.ContentHubApplication.IDENTIFIER;

// Creates an `ApplicationPermissionInfo` object that represents the assignment
ApplicationPermissionInfo newApplicationPermissionRoleAssignment = new()
{
    RoleID = selectedRoleInfo.RoleID,
    // Use `System.Permissions`.<permission> to set the PermissionName
    PermissionName = SystemPermissions.UPDATE,
    ApplicationName = applicationName

// Writes the application permissions for a specific role to the database
