Oracle Apex - Authorization

About

While conditions control the rendering and processing of specific controls or components on a page, authorization schemes control user access.

Authorization schemes use the identities established by authentication to grant privileges on applications and objects within them.

You can specify an authorization scheme for:

an entire_application,
a page,
or a specific page control such as a region, item, or button.
