Node.js v18.20.0 documentation

Permissions#

Permissions can be used to control what system resources the Node.js process has access to or what actions the process can take with those resources. Permissions can also control what modules can be accessed by other modules.

• Module-based permissions control which files or URLs are available to other modules during application execution. This can be used to control what modules can be accessed by third-party dependencies, for example.
