Evernote Enterprise RBAC

Overview

Implement role-based access control for Evernote integrations, including Evernote Business account handling, shared notebook permissions, multi-tenant architecture, and authorization middleware.

Prerequisites

• Understanding of Evernote Business accounts and shared notebooks
• Multi-tenant application architecture
• Authentication/authorization infrastructure

Instructions

Step 1: Evernote Permission Model

Evernote has built-in sharing permissions for notebooks: READ_NOTEBOOK, MODIFY_NOTEBOOK_PLUS_ACTIVITY, READ_NOTEBOOK_PLUS_ACTIVITY, GROUP, FULL_ACCESS. Map these to your application's role system.

const EvernotePermissions = {
  READ: 'READ_NOTEBOOK',
  WRITE: 'MODIFY_NOTEBOOK_PLUS_ACTIVITY',
  FULL: 'FULL_ACCESS'
};

const AppRoles = {
  viewer: [EvernotePermissions.READ],
  editor: [EvernotePermissions.READ, EvernotePermissions.WRITE],
  admin:  [EvernotePermissions.FULL]
};

Step 2: RBAC Service

Build a service that checks whether a user has the required permission for an operation. Query shared notebook privileges via noteStore.listSharedNotebooks() and getSharedNotebookByAuth().

class RBACService {
  async canAccess(userToken, notebookGuid, requiredPermission) {
    const noteStore = this.getAuthenticatedNoteStore(userToken);
    const sharedNotebooks = await noteStore.listSharedNotebooks();
    const shared = sharedNotebooks.find(sn => sn.notebookGuid === notebookGuid);
    if (!shared) return false;
    return this.hasPermission(shared.privilege, requiredPermission);
  }
}

Step 3: Authorization Middleware

Create Express middleware that validates the user's Evernote token and checks permissions before allowing access to protected routes.

Step 4: Evernote Business Integration

For Evernote Business accounts, use authenticateToBusiness() to get a business token. Business notebooks are shared across the organization. Use getBusinessNotebooks() to list them.

Step 5: Multi-Tenant Support

Isolate tenant data by scoping all Evernote operations to the tenant's access token. Never mix tokens between tenants. Store tenant-to-token mappings with encryption at rest.

For the full RBAC service, middleware, Business account integration, and multi-tenant architecture, see Implementation Guide.

Output

• Evernote permission model mapped to application roles
• RBACService class with permission checking
• Express authorization middleware for protected routes
• Evernote Business account integration
• Multi-tenant token isolation and scoping

Examples

Team workspace: Create a shared notebook for each team. Assign editor role to team members and viewer role to stakeholders. Use middleware to enforce permissions on all note operations.

Business account sync: Authenticate to the business account, list all business notebooks, and sync shared notes to a central dashboard accessible by all organization members.
