Admin permission Grant all access to a user

Super admin permission

You may provide a super-admin permission or group for users who might have totally access to your application. But, add all the system permissions to a admin role is time consuming and laborious.

Gate before

If you want the admin GROUP to allow full access without having to add all system permissions to it, you may use the before method to define a callback that is run before all other authorization checks:

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Gate;

class AuthServiceProvider extends ServiceProvider
{
    public function boot()
    {
        $this->registerPolicies();

        Gate::before(function ($user, $ability) {
            return $user->hasGroup('admin') ? true : null;
        });
    }
}

If you want the admin PERMISSION to allow full access, you may use the before method to define a callback that is run before all other authorization checks:

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Gate;

class AuthServiceProvider extends ServiceProvider
{
    public function boot()
    {
        $this->registerPolicies();

        Gate::before(function ($user, $ability) {
            return $user->hasPermission('admin') ? true : null;
        });
    }
}

If the before callback returns a non-null result that result will be considered the result of the check.
