Overview

This node operation "Lists Permissions of a Given Group" under the "Permission" resource retrieves all permissions assigned to a specific user group. It is useful in scenarios where you need to audit or verify what access rights a particular group has within a system, such as checking which actions or resources a team or department can access.

Practical examples include:

  • Auditing group permissions before granting additional access.
  • Displaying group permissions in an admin dashboard.
  • Automating compliance checks by listing permissions for security reviews.

Properties

Name Meaning
Group ID The unique identifier of a group whose permissions you want to list (required string).

Output

The output will be a JSON array containing the permissions associated with the specified group. Each item in the array represents a permission granted to that group. The exact structure depends on the API response but typically includes permission names and possibly metadata about each permission.

No binary data output is expected from this operation.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential configured in n8n to authenticate requests to the external service.
  • The node sends a GET request to the endpoint /group/{group_id}/permissions where {group_id} is the provided Group ID.
  • The base URL and authentication headers are set via credentials.

Troubleshooting

  • Missing or invalid Group ID: Ensure the Group ID is correctly provided and exists in the system.
  • Authentication errors: Verify that the API key credential is valid and has sufficient permissions to query group permissions.
  • Network issues or incorrect base URL: Confirm the API endpoint URL is reachable and correctly configured in the credentials.
  • Empty results: This may indicate the group has no permissions assigned or the Group ID is incorrect.

Links and References

  • Refer to your API documentation for the "List Permissions of a Given Group" endpoint for detailed response schema and permission definitions.
  • Consult your system's user and group management guides for understanding group identifiers and permission models.
