OpenFGA, an open-source system designed by Okta and adopted by the CNCF for Relationship-Based Access Control (ReBAC), is used to secure a Node.js API with Auth0. The guide demonstrates setting up API authorization with Auth0, initializing an authorization model in OpenFGA, and incorporating Fine-Grained Authorization (FGA) using OpenFGA's Node.js SDK. Detailed steps involve setting up environments, creating middleware for token validation and permission checks, and running the API to manage document permissions effectively.
