permissions-update

How to programmatically provide users access to or remove access from various Adobe Connect sessions.

Availability

Breeze 4

Description

Updates the permissions a principal has to access a SCO, using a trio of principal-id, acl-id, and permission-id. To update permissions for multiple principals or objects, specify multiple trios. You can update more than 200 permissions in a single call to permissions-update.

Call permissions-update to give a user access to a Adobe Connect meeting, course, curriculum, or other SCO. For example, you can use permissions-update to:

  • Invite a user to a meeting as participant, presenter, or host (with a permission-id of view, mini-host, or host, respectively)

  • Remove a user’s participant, presenter, or host access to a meeting (with a permission-id of remove)

  • Enroll users in courses (with a permission-id of view)

If you use multiple trios and any of them have invalid information (for example, an incorrect acl-id or principal-id), permissions-update returns an ok status, the correct trios execute, and the invalid ones do not.
