# How do I check for permissions?

When checking for permission, you should always be as explicit as you can. For example, checking a user has the `custom.view`or `custom.manage`permissions.

Guarding content in a Blade file:

```
@can('custom.view')
    ...
@endcan

@canany(['orders', 'custom'])
    ...
@endcan

```

Checking the admin user has permission to access an endpoint:

```
Route::get('/my-module', [MyModuleController::class, 'index'])
    ->name('admin.modules.my-module')
    ->middleware('can:custom.view');

Route::get('/my-module/manage', [MyModuleController::class, 'manage'])
    ->name('admin.modules.my-module.manage')
    ->middleware('can:custom.manage');

```

Guarding the execution of code in a Controller:

```
if ($this->can('custom')) {
    // ...
}

if ($this->canAny(['orders', 'custom'])) {
    // ...
}

```
