Hi, 

Does anyone know any company/service/library that offers Access Control Lists or Role Based Access Control via a REST API?

Thank you!

Do you mean having access control for using the REST API? Or have a REST API that is used to control access to other resources?

Hi <a class="user-mention" href="/@mverleg">Mark</a>. Thank you for your question. I mean an API that is used to control access to resources. What I would like to have is an API that, given a resource, it would tell me what are the permissions, or roles, or users, allowed to access that resource. It could be very generic. If it doesn&#39;t have a lot of granularity, it&#39;s fine. I&#39;m asking because it seems that a lot of applications have a very similar logic for authorization and it&#39;d be nice to have a solution that can be reused.
