RetrieveUserPrivilegeByPrivilegeName missing parameter Exception

Posted on by Catalin Ilie

I am trying to check if a user has a privilege by using the web API standard function RetrieveUserPrivilegeByPrivilegeName.

After building the request in Typescript, the generated Request URL looks like this:

/api/data/v9.0/systemusers(29474CB3-0F57-EA11-90FE-00155D01A962)/Microsoft.Dynamics.CRM.RetrieveUserPrivilegeByPrivilegeName(PrivilegeName=@PrivilegeName)?@PrivilegeName=%27prvCreatewp_CourseMembers%27

However, i get this error:

"message":"Request message has unresolved parameters.","type":"Microsoft.Crm.CrmHttpException"

I read the documentation and looked for examples to check if i set properly the PrivilegeName parameter and everything seems to be ok. What do i do wrong?

I got the same error in an on-premise environment.

It seems it doesn't work in an on-premise environment. I tried in an online environment (which i suspect you did also) and there it works. So on v9.0 on-premise, it doesn't work. I have a fetchXml alternative, but i would have rather used this function.

I don't think so, but it should work with v9.0

Please give it a try within your Browser and share your request again with some screenshots.

It still doesn't work for me. I noticed you're using api v9.1, whereas i have 9.0, could this be the problem?
