public ResourceAuthorizationDataSet ReadResourceAuthorization(
    Guid resourceUid
)

Parameters

  • resourceUid
    Type: System.Guid

    The unique identifier of the resource to read.

Return value

Type: WebSvcResource.ResourceAuthorizationDataSet
The ResourceAuthorizationDataSet contains permissions, groups, and other authorization information.

Remarks

The permissions returned are only those assigned directly to the resource. Any permissions assigned to groups of which the resource is a member are not included.

For more information about the permissions returned by ReadResourceAuthorization method, see PermissionDataSet.

Project Server Permissions

Permission

Description

ManageUsersAndGroups

Allows a user to manage resources, users and groups. Category permission.

Examples

This example updates the permssions of the current user and reads the permissions for the current user.

This sample creates a custom permission. Before you can run this sample twice, you need to remove the permission it creates. To manually delete resources, go to the Resource Center section of your Project Web App site, select your account from the select, and choose Edit Details from the Actions menu. Go to the Global Permissions section and clear the check box next to the New Project permission and click on Save.

Please see Prerequisites for ASMX-based code samples in Project 2013 for critical information on running this code sample.
