Description

When requesting access between social agents, for instance when I request access to Alice's photos, I would send them an access request, for which I ideally get a grant and receipt back. How can I know where the photos for which I have received access are located? (Is this the data grant's hasDataInstance?)

Sort of related to this: Should it be possible to request access to a specific set of their photos? How can I know which photos I can request access to if I have no access to them?
I know Alice can choose this when granting access, but could it be done with a more specific request?

Research direction

No files or tests are identified in the issue. Start by reading the access request, grant, and receipt concepts, especially whether a grant's hasDataInstance identifies accessible photos; then clarify how specific photo sets can be requested and how requesters discover eligible photos. Done means the specification answers these questions consistently.
