Support for Drupal 7 is ending on 5 January 2025—it’s time to migrate to Drupal 10! Learn about the many benefits of Drupal 10 and find migration tools in our resource center.The permissions 'export configuration' and 'import configuration' are used in config.routing.yml but they are not implemented using hook_permission().
The only permission defined in config.module currently is 'synchronize configuration'. However, in the yml file config.routing.yml these 3 permissions are used:
'synchronize configuration'
'export configuration'
'import configuration'
The 'export configuration' permission is used for following callbacks:
admin/config/development/export
admin/config/development/export-download
The 'import configuration' permission is used for following callback:
admin/config/development/import
I think we should either:
1) add the 'export configuration' and 'import configuration' permissions to config.module, or
2) use the 'synchronize configuration' permission for both export and import menu callbacks (change in config.routing.yml)

valdo CreditAttribution: valdo commentedPatch for option 1 (add the permissions) is attached.

amateescu CreditAttribution: amateescu commentedYeah, clear signs of missing tests. Anyway, a test that uses this permission is being added in #2017019: Configuration export action path is broken when Drupal is installed in a subfolder so it's probably ok to get this one in before.

alexpottNice find and I'm looking forward to the test in #2017019: Configuration export action path is broken when Drupal is installed in a subfolder :)
Committed d888189 and pushed to 8.x. Thanks!
