# Search Permissions

Dashworks automatically respects document-level permissions from app connections. Here's how it determines which app connections to use for search permissions:

<table><thead><tr><th width="371">Surface</th><th>Permissions</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>Web app when no bot is tagged</td><td>Default behavior of using the permissions of the app connections for the user who is asking the question</td></tr><tr><td>Web app when a bot is tagged with "@Bot"</td><td>Permissions of the app connections for the Bot</td></tr><tr><td>Slackbot in DMs</td><td>Default behavior of using the permissions of the app connections for the user who is asking the question</td></tr><tr><td>Slackbot in channels</td><td>Permissions of the app connections for the Bot</td></tr></tbody></table>
