Check if user has certain permissions in client side Method

Question

Hi, I created a custom Action in ItemType 'Part' that calls a client Method. Only the Part Owner shall be able to run the Action. The Owner can be one person or a user group. How can I check, if the current user is in this user group and have the necessary permissions to run the Action? I tried the following AML query, but unfortunately no Result is returned: // check permission var aml = ""; var result = inn.applyAML(aml); return alert(result.getResult() ); In a server side Method I can use the following code: string ownedById = this.getProperty("owned_by_id"); if (!CCO.Permissions.IdentityListHasId(Aras.Server.Security.Permissions.Current.IdentitiesList, ownedById)) { return inn.newError("Not allowed."); } Is something similar available for client side Methods? Thanks for your help! Angela

Hi,

you can use this:
 
function pb_isCurrUserMemberOfIdentityId(identity_to_check)
{
if (identity_to_check === "") {return false;}
var sessionIdentitites_array = top.aras.getIdentityList().split(",");
// now we have all identities the current user (session) is member of
// scan if given identity is in the list - if yes, return true
for (var i=0;i<sessionIdentitites_array.length;i++)
{
if (identity_to_check == sessionIdentitites_array[i]) {return true;}
}
return false;
};
