+# Troubleshooting RBAC
+
+In this section, you’ll learn about logs that are available for RBAC and you’ll find the most common RBAC issues.
+
+## Enable debug logging
+
+You can enable debug log messages for RBAC in the Grafana configuration file. Debug logs are added to the Grafana server logs.
+
+```bash
+[log]
+filters = accesscontrol:debug accesscontrol.evaluator:debug dashboard.permissions:debug
+```
+
+## Enable audit logging
+
+> **Note:** Available in [Grafana Enterprise]({{< relref "../../introduction/grafana-enterprise/" >}}) version 7.3 and later, and [Grafana Cloud Advanced](/docs/grafana-cloud).
+
+You can enable auditing in the Grafana configuration file.
+
+```bash
+[auditing]
+enabled = true
+```
+
+All permission and role updates, and role assignments are added to audit logs.
+Learn more about [access control audit logs]({{< relref "../../../../setup-grafana/configure-security/audit-grafana/#access-control" >}}).
+
+## Missing dashboard, folder or data source permissions
+
+[Dashboard and folder permissions]({{< relref "../../#dashboard-permissions" >}}) and [data source permissions]({{< relref "../../#data-source-permissions" >}}) can go out of sync if a Grafana instance version is upgraded, downgraded and then upgraded again.
+This happens when an instance is downgraded from a version that uses RBAC to a version that uses the legacy access control, and dashboard, folder or data source permissions are updated.
+These permission updates will not be applied to RBAC, so permissions will be out of sync when the instance is next upgraded to a version with RBAC.
+
+> **Note:** the steps provided below will set all dashboard, folder and data source permissions to what they are set to with the legacy access control.
+> If you have made dashboard, folder or data source permission updates with RBAC enabled, these updates will be wiped.
+
+To resynchronize the permissions:
+
+1. make a backup of your database
+1. run the following SQL queries
+   ```sql
+   DELETE
+   FROM builtin_role
+   where role_id IN (SELECT id
+                     FROM role
+                     WHERE name LIKE 'managed:%');
+   DELETE
+   FROM team_role
+   where role_id IN (SELECT id
+                     FROM role
+                     WHERE name LIKE 'managed:%');
+   DELETE
+   FROM user_role
+   where role_id IN (SELECT id
+                     FROM role
+                     WHERE name LIKE 'managed:%');
+   DELETE
+   FROM permission
+   where role_id IN (SELECT id
+                     FROM role
+                     WHERE name LIKE 'managed:%');
+   DELETE
+   FROM role
+   WHERE name LIKE 'managed:%';
+   DELETE
+   FROM migration_log
+   WHERE migration_id IN ('teams permissions migration',
+                          'dashboard permissions',
+                          'dashboard permissions uid scopes',
+                          'data source permissions',
+                          'data source uid permissions',
+                          'managed permissions migration',
+                          'managed folder permissions alert actions repeated migration',
+                          'managed permissions migration enterprise');
+   ```
+1. restart your Grafana instance
