Overview

This node operation "Lists Permissions of a Given Role" under the "Permission" resource retrieves all permissions assigned to a specific role identified by its unique Role ID. It is useful in scenarios where you need to audit, review, or manage the access rights and capabilities granted to roles within an application or system. For example, administrators can use this operation to verify what actions a particular role is allowed to perform before assigning it to users.

Properties

Name Meaning
Role ID The unique identifier of a role for which the permissions list will be retrieved.

Output

The output JSON contains a list of permissions associated with the specified role. Each permission typically represents an action or access right that the role has within the system. The exact structure depends on the API response but generally includes permission names and possibly descriptions or scopes.

If the node supports binary data output (not indicated here), it would represent related binary content, but this operation primarily returns JSON data about permissions.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for authentication to the external service.
  • The base URL for API requests is configured from credentials.
  • The node sends a GET request to the endpoint /roles/{role_id}/permissions to fetch the permissions.

Troubleshooting

  • Missing or invalid Role ID: Ensure the Role ID is provided and correctly formatted; otherwise, the API may return an error or empty results.
  • Authentication errors: Verify that the API key credential is valid and has sufficient permissions to query role permissions.
  • Network issues or incorrect base URL: Confirm the API base URL is correct and accessible.
  • API rate limits or server errors: If the API returns rate limit or server errors, retry after some time or check API usage policies.

Links and References

  • Refer to your API provider's documentation for the /roles/{role_id}/permissions endpoint for detailed information on the response format and permission semantics.
