Parameters

projectUid
Type: System.Guid
The GUID of the project.
categoryPermissionUids
Type: []
An array of one or more category permission GUIDs.

Return Value

Type: []
An array of Boolean values that correspond to security category permissions of the current user for the project.

CheckUserProjectPermissions wraps a call to CheckUserObjectPermissions. To check a single category permission for a project, you can use CheckUserProjectPermissions. Checking a category permission for another user on a project requires using impersonation to log on as that user.

For the categoryPermissionUids parameter, use the PSSecurityCategoryPermission structure to get the GUIDs for the default category permissions, or use ReadCategoryPermissions to get the GUIDs for custom category permissions.
