 ### Viewing Objects

-Object-based permissions work by filtering the database query generated by a user's request to restrict the set of objects returned. When a request is received, NetBox first determines whether the user is authenticated and has been granted permission to perform the requested action. For example, if the requested URL is `/dcim/devices/`, NetBox will check for the `dcim.view_device` permission. If the user has not been assigned this permission (either directly or via a group assignment), NetBox will return a 403 (forbidden) HTTP response.

-## Compatibility Matrix
-
-Consider adding a file named `COMPATIBILITY.md` to your plugin project root (alongside `pyproject.toml`). This file should contain a table listing the minimum and maximum supported versions of NetBox (`min_version` and `max_version`) for each release. This serves as a handy reference for users who are upgrading from a previous version of your plugin. An example is shown below:

 ## Create a Virtual Environment

 It is strongly recommended to create a Python [virtual environment](https://docs.python.org/3/tutorial/venv.html) for the development of your plugin, as opposed to using system-wide packages. This will afford you complete control over the installed versions of all dependencies and avoid conflict with system packages. This environment can live wherever you'd like;however, it should be excluded from revision control. (A popular convention is to keep all virtual environments in the user's home directory, e.g. `~/.virtualenvs/`.)
