Cian JohnstonandCopilot Autofix powered by AI e8c53f7968 chore: add test to document current behaviour on template ACL revocation (#26104)
Documents a question raised in
https://github.com/coder/coder/pull/26061#discussion_r3361458492 - I
couldn't find the exact answer, so adding a test and accompanying
documentation seemed like the prudent move here.

Obligatory disclosure: an agent wrote this code under my supervision.

Permissions

Note

Template permissions are a Premium feature. Learn more.

Licensed Coder administrators can control who can use and modify the template.

Template Permissions

Permissions allow you to control who can use and modify the template. Both individual user and groups can be added to the access list for a template. Members can be assigned either a Use role, granting use of the template to create workspaces, or Admin, allowing a user or members of a group to control all aspects of the template. This offers a way to elevate the privileges of ordinary users for specific templates without granting them the site-wide role of Template Admin.

By default the Everyone group is assigned to each template meaning any Coder user can use the template to create a workspace. This access can be revoked via the actions menu button to the right hand side of each group entry.

Warning

If a user's only access to a template is through a group and they lose that access (for example, by being removed from the group or by removing the group from the template's permissions), they cannot start or stop workspaces created from that template.
