Posted on by Community Member

Hello everyone,

I have a requirement wherein i have to retrieve the logged in users security roles. Some of the users have multiple roles.

The code i have used is,

function test() {

var UserRole = Xrm.Page.context.getUserRoles();

alert(UserRole);

for (var i = 0; i < UserRole.length; i++)

alert("Hi");

{

var userRoleId = UserRole[i];

alert("Hi");

var req = new XMLHttpRequest();

req.open("GET", Xrm.Page.context.getClientUrl() + "/api/data/v8.0/roles?$select=name&$filter=roleid eq " + userRoleId, true);

But I am not able to get the desired output. I am getting as "Bad Request"error and "undefined" error.

If you could please help!

Hi,

this function will get all the user's security role Id, passing security role id to get the security role name. If it match, it is true otherwise false.

function CheckUserRole(roleName) {

var currentUserRoles = Xrm.Page.context.getUserRoles();

for (var i = 0; i < currentUserRoles.length; i++) {

var userRoleId = currentUserRoles[i];

var userRoleName = GetRoleName(userRoleId);

if (userRoleName == roleName) {

return true;

}

}

return false;

}

Please mark verified if this is answer for your query.

Regards

Hi,

Please check whether your are getting the guid in userRoleId by putting alert(userRoleId ), I think that will provide you the object if yes then you will get the role id like userRoleId.id or userRoleId.Id

I have used this code. But this code is not serving my objective. It is showing bad request error if I pass i as a value to userRoleId variable.

Hi,

function onLoad() {

// ** Shows all the roles for current user

var Roles = Xrm.Page.context.getUserRoles();

for (var i = 0; i < Roles.length; i++) {

var RoleId = Roles[i];

var selectQuery = "/RoleSet?$top=1&$filter=RoleId eq guid'" + RoleId + "'&$select=Name";

var role = null;

role = makeRequest(selectQuery);

var RoleName = role[0].Name;

alert("Role ID=" + RoleId + " Role Name=" + RoleName);

}

}

Hi Darshani

Try changing

req.open("GET", window.parent.Xrm.Page.context.getClientUrl() + "/api/data/v8.0/roles?$select=name&$filter=roleid eq " + userRoleId, true);

to

req.open("GET", window.parent.Xrm.Page.context.getClientUrl() + "/api/data/v8.0/roles?$select=name&$filter=roleid eq " + userRoleId, false);

change "async" from "true" to "false".

No such errors in your code. Try to replcae your function with below code.

function test() {

var UserRole = window.parent.Xrm.Page.context.getUserRoles();

for (var i = 0; i < UserRole.length; i++) {

var req = new XMLHttpRequest();

var userRoleId = UserRole[i];

req.open("GET", window.parent.Xrm.Page.context.getClientUrl() + "/api/data/v8.0/roles?$select=name&$filter=roleid eq " + userRoleId, false);

req.setRequestHeader("Accept", "application/json");

req.setRequestHeader("Content-Type", "application/json; charset=utf-8");

req.onreadystatechange = function () {

if (req.readyState == 4 && req.status == 200) {

console.log("Hello "+i);

}

};

req.send();

}

}
