2.15 User Permissions
The following resource URI can be used for accessing the user permissions of the currently logged-in
user:
<BASE_URI>/UserPermissions/{SID of user}
This is typically an API that will be used by third party consumers programmatically. The {SID} needs to be
provided as parameter.
This API returns the permissions associated with the logged in user ID. The permissions are represented as
a collection of integers.
2.16 Reports
The currently available reports in OpenManage Essentials are provided through the REST API. These
reports are identical to the reports found in OpenManage Essentials, including column names and sort
order.
