Parameters

globalPermissionUid
Type: System.Guid
Specifies the unique identifier for a global permission.

Return Value

Type: System.Boolean
True if the current user has the permission; otherwise, false.

To check multiple global permissions, use CheckUserGlobalPermissions for better performance. To check a security permission for another resource requires using impersonation to log on as that resource.

For the globalPermissionUids parameter, use the PSSecurityCategoryPermission structure to get the GUID value of a default global permission, or use ReadGlobalPermissions to get the GUID for a custom global permission.
