This documentation should be useful to that end:
https://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nag ... iauth.html

Essentially, you can manage permissions by defining a contact that shares the name with a Nagios Core web interface user, then assigning that contact to their associated host and service objects.:
An authenticated contact is an authenticated user whose username matches the short name of a contact definition.
Any more granular permissions than what is on that page would require something like Nagios XI:
