> - [llms.txt](https://docs.kentico.com/llms.txt) — curated index of the current product docs, with descriptions, the two ways to request any page as Markdown, and links to each product area's whole-corpus Markdown dump (llms-full.txt).

Users in roles granted with appropriate [permissions](#configuring-required-permissions-for-managing-abuse-reports) can [manage](#editing-abuse-reports) abuse reports in the **Abuse report** application. The application allows [viewing](#managingabusereports-object_details) details of certain types of objects while editing related abuse reports. [Managingabusereports-object\_details](#managingabusereports-object_details) 

![List of abuse reports in the Abuse report application](https://docs.kentico.com/docsassets/k10/managing-abuse-reports/abuse_report_list.png "List of abuse reports in the Abuse report application")

You can use statuses to mark the reports – the system offers the **New**, **Solved**, and **Rejected** abuse report status. The statuses are just for convenient marking of reports. Changing a status does not influence the reported content.

## Viewing object details&#x20;

If you are editing an abuse report related to a blog comment, board message or forum post, the **Show object details** button is displayed.

Clicking the button opens a new window with details about the source of the report (the board message, blog comment or forum post). This functionality is ensured automatically by the web parts listed on the [Integrating abuse reporting with other community features](https://docs.kentico.com/k10/community-features/abuse-reports/integrating-abuse-reporting-with-other-community-features.md) page. You can also achieve it in transformations of these object types by using the **In-line abuse report** web part. See [Adding abuse reporting functionality to transformations](https://docs.kentico.com/k10/community-features/abuse-reports/adding-abuse-reporting-functionality-to-transformations.md) for more details.

## Configuring required permissions for managing abuse reports

1. Open the **Permissions** application.
2. In the first **Permissions for** drop-down list, choose **Module**.
3. In the second drop-down list, choose **Abuse report**.

You can grant the following permissions to the roles:
