How do I apply a Pundit Policy to Index?

Rich Smith asked in Rails
I'd like to have an index page show only the associated (from the parent, location) records, and allow only users that own those records to see the index.  I am really struggling with this concept of scopes and would appreciate any help.

Here's where I'm at:

#### Models

```
User
  has_one :business
  has_many :locations, :through => :business
end

Business
  belongs_to :user
  has_many :locations
end

Location
  extend FriendlyId
  belongs_to :business
  has_one :user, :through => :business
  has_many :sites, dependent: :destroy
  friendly_id :custom_url, use: :slugged

Site

  before_action :set_location, only: [:new, :show, :edit, :index, :update, :destroy]

    authorize Site
    @sites = @location.sites.all

    def site_params

      def initialize(user, scope)
        @user  = user
        @scope = scope
      end
  
      def resolve
        if user.has_role? :admin
          scope.all
        else
          scope.where(location.user)
        end
      end
    end

  def index? 
    return true if user.present? and user.has_role? :admin

Any help or pointers at all would be super appreciated, I am really struggling wrapping my head around Pundit Scopes, but am keenly aware that I need them to get an index page to work.
