Get Repository Permissions for logged in user via RTC API

Marko Tomljenovic (316●35●82) | asked Apr 18 '16, 10:30 a.m.

Hi,

for some reporting purposes I would like to fetch via API the repository permissions that a logged in user (in the teamrepository object) currently has.

This code (which I adapted a little bit) only works if the user is JazzAdmin

http://www.joshuabambrick.com/assign-repository-permissions-rtc/

If the user is not JazzAdmin then a call to ExternalUserRegistryManager.fetchGroupsForUser(...) throws an exception, and not even the PermissionDeniedException (like described in the Javadoc) but a ServiceMethodInvocationError.

Any ideas how to solve this? Java API would be preferred but REST calls would also be ok.

Thank you

Also this post did not help: https://jazz.net/forum/questions/157888/how-to-get-repository-permissions-of-user-in-rtc-using-plain-java-api

For both solutions I need to have JazzAdmin permissions.

As it seems using ..userRegistryManager.isMember() throws an exception even if I am querying for data about the currently logged in user.

But if I use ...userRegistryManager.fetchGroups I get all the groups for the currently logged in user (wo having JazzAdmin permissions)
