Hello, I’m working on some fairly complex entitlement data in a web services connector and have found the “include permissions” check in the entitlement schemas. My question - how does one implement this? Does anyone have any experience? What else needs to be configured in the schema/requests to pull in these permissions? I cannot find any documentation regarding how to actually use this feature.
Thanks
Hello Joe,
The “Include Permission in Aggregation” option for an entitlement type allows you to specify whether the permissions associated with the entitlement should be considered when aggregating entitlements.
When this option is enabled, IDN will include permissions as part of the aggregation process. This means that if a user has multiple entitlements, each with different permissions, those permissions will be aggregated together to determine the user’s overall access rights.
For example, if a user has two entitlements: one with read-only permission and another with write permission, and both are included in the aggregation, the aggregated entitlement will have both read and write permissions.
This option can be useful when you want to consider both entitlements and their associated permissions when evaluating a user’s access rights.
Hi Anagha, thanks for the reply. I understand conceptually how permissions are related, but if say one had a web services connector configured to an internal application that has roles with permissions, how would one set up the entitlement schema to show these permissions? I have seen on some OOTB connectors like Salesforce have a clean list of permissions on the entitlements. How can one replicate this on a more custom connection like web services?
