        Set the default permission to be used by all subsequent

        should be a :term:`permission` string to be used as the
        default permission.  An example of a permission
        string:``'view'``.  Adding a default permission makes it
        unnecessary to protect each view configuration with an
        explicit permission, unless your application policy requires
        some exception for a particular view.

        If a default permission is *not* set, views represented by
        view configuration registrations which do not explicitly
        declare a permission will be executable by entirely anonymous
        users (any authorization policy is ignored).

        Later calls to this method override will conflict with earlier calls;
        there can be only one default permission active at a time within an
        application.

          If a default permission is in effect, view configurations meant to
          create a truly anonymously accessible view (even :term:`exception
          view` views) *must* use the value of the permission importable as
          :data:`pyramid.security.NO_PERMISSION_REQUIRED`.  When this string
          is used as the ``permission`` for a view configuration, the default
          permission is ignored, and the view is registered, making it
          available to all callers regardless of their credentials.

        See also :ref:`setting_a_default_permission`.
