Description

Bumps openedx-authz from 1.22.0 to 1.23.0 across all requirement files (base, testing, doc, development).

1.23.0:

  • Added courses.view_advanced_settings permission for read-only access to advanced settings.
  • Added courses.view_certificates permission for read-only access to certificates.
  • Added courses.view_group_configurations permission for read-only access to group configurations.
  • Added courses.view_library_updates permission for read-only access to library updates.
  • All four view permissions are granted to all four course roles (Admin, Staff, Editor, Auditor).

User roles impacted: Course Editor, Course Auditor. These roles will gain the ability to view pages that were previously fully blocked (advanced settings, certificates, group configurations, library updates) once the corresponding enforcement changes land in follow-up PRs.

This PR is purely additive — the new permission constants exist in the library but are not yet consumed by any enforcement point in this repo. No behavior change until follow-up PRs land.

Supporting information

Testing instructions

  1. Verify the platform boots successfully with the new version (tutor dev start)
  2. Run the authz test suite: pytest openedx/core/djangoapps/authz/ --no-migrations
  3. Run the contentstore test suite: pytest cms/djangoapps/contentstore/ --no-migrations (existing tests should pass unchanged since no enforcement points use the new constants yet)

Deadline

None — but this unblocks four follow-up PRs that split read/write permission enforcement.

Other information

  • Depends on: openedx-authz 1.23.0 being published to PyPI.
  • No migrations — purely a library version bump.
  • No deprecations — all changes in 1.23.0 are backwards-compatible additions.
  • Follow-up PRs (depend on this): enforcement changes for view_advanced_settings, view_certificates, view_group_configurations, and view_library_updates.

wgu-taylor-payne force-pushed the tpayne/bump-openedx-authz-1.23.0 branch from 780e384 to 3b3c790 Compare August 19, 2026 15:25
Picks up changes from two minor releases:

1.22.0:
- Role assignment now succeeds for a course/library scope key before
  its CourseOverview/ContentLibrary exists, and links up automatically
  once the object is created.

1.23.0:
- courses.view_advanced_settings
- courses.view_certificates
- courses.view_group_configurations
- courses.view_library_updates

The new view permissions enable read-only access for Course Editors
and Auditors to pages that were previously fully blocked without the
corresponding manage_* permission.
