Administrator Permissions API

The Administrator Permissions API is used to return a complete list of permissions or details on a particular permission. A user must have either the Administrator (12) or MgmtAPI (11) to use this API.

Permissions may be granted to roles, users, and data sources. The permissions for a user account are the sum of the permissions granted to the role(s) associated with the account and the permissions granted explicitly on the account. Any permissions specified on a data source will override the permissions for the user that owns the data source. (See also User provisioning.)

You can perform the following operations with the Administrator Permissions API.
