permission_classes = [IsAdminUser]
return [permission() for permission in permission_classes]

**Note**: the `action` attribute is not available in the `get_parsers`, `get_authenticators` and `get_content_negotiator` methods, as it is set _after_ they are called in the framework lifecycle. If you override one of these methods and try to access the `action` attribute in them, you will get an `AttributeError` error.

## Marking extra actions for routing

If you have ad-hoc methods that should be routable, you can mark them as such with the `@action` decorator. Like regular actions, extra actions may be intended for either a single object, or an entire collection. To indicate this, set the `detail` argument to `True` or `False`. The router will configure its URL patterns accordingly. e.g., the `DefaultRouter` will configure detail actions to contain `pk` in their URL patterns.
