getResourcePrivileges
Get the privilege information for any number of resources.
The returned privileges per user or group are the privileges specifically given to that user or group. In each privilegeEntry, the combinedPrivs element contains the effective privileges for that user or group based on their membership in all other groups. In each privilegeEntry, the inheritedPrivs element only contains the privileges that were inherited due to group membership. Logically OR’ing the privs and inheritedPrivs is the same as the combinedPrivs.
A user with GRANT privilege or with READ_ALL_RESOURCES right receives all privilege information for all users for a that resource. Other users receive only their own privilege information.
