GET /api/permissions/group

Fetch all PermissionsGroups, including a count of the number of :members in that group. This API requires superuser or group manager of more than one group. Group manager is only available if advanced-permissions is enabled and returns only groups that user is manager of.

GET /api/permissions/group/:id

Fetch the details for a certain permissions group.

PARAMS:

  • id value must be an integer greater than zero.

GET /api/permissions/membership

Fetch a map describing the group memberships of various users. This map’s format is:

{<user-id> [{:membership_id    <id>
             :group_id         <id>
             :is_group_manager boolean}]}.

POST /api/permissions/group

Create a new PermissionsGroup.

You must be a superuser to do this.

PARAMS:

  • name value must be a non-blank string.

POST /api/permissions/membership

Add a User to a PermissionsGroup. Returns updated list of members belonging to the group.

PARAMS:

  • group_id value must be an integer greater than zero.

  • user_id value must be an integer greater than zero.

  • is_group_manager nullable boolean.

PUT /api/permissions/graph

Do a batch update of Permissions by passing in a modified graph. This should return the same graph, in the same format, that you got from GET /api/permissions/graph, with any changes made in the wherever necessary. This modified graph must correspond to the PermissionsGraph schema. If successful, this endpoint returns the updated permissions graph; use this as a base for any further modifications.

Revisions to the permissions graph are tracked. If you fetch the permissions graph and some other third-party modifies it before you can submit you revisions, the endpoint will instead make no changes and return a 409 (Conflict) response. In this case, you should fetch the updated graph and make desired changes to that.

The optional sandboxes key contains a list of sandboxes that should be created or modified in conjunction with this permissions graph update. Since data sandboxing is an Enterprise Edition-only feature, a 402 (Payment Required) response will be returned if this key is present and the server is not running the Enterprise Edition, and/or the :sandboxes feature flag is not present.

If the skip-graph query param is truthy, then the graph will not be returned.

You must be a superuser to do this.

PARAMS:

  • skip-graph nullable boolean.

  • body map.

PUT /api/permissions/group/:group-id
