context.userSettings.securityRoles OR Xrm.Page.context.getUserRoles() not working properly

Hello Experts,

I have given only the System Admin Security Role to the user. We have some custom Security Roles as well in the system.

what is weird thing is happening that when I retrieved the Security Roles using Javascript Code using context.userSettings.securityRoles OR Xrm.Page.context.getUserRoles() this method

then it is returning 2 extra Security Roles which user does not have. This is happening on Client Sandbox Org from yesterday. Also, these extra 2 Roles returning for All users. I have tried Checked/Unchecked Security Roles, Even then it is returning extra Roles. These 2 Extra Security Roles are static for all while calling JS method to getting Security Roles.

But I have checked the same JS code on my development org. It is returning proper Roles. Working properly on Development Org.

Thanks in Advance

Hi Shrikant,

First, I wouldn't use Xrm.Page.context.getUserRoles as it has officially been deprecated.

Xrm.Utility.getGlobalContext().userSettings returns the security roles assigned directly to your users but also the roles that the user has inherited through a team membership.
Have you checked the teams your user belongs to?

If all users have that role, it is likely that it's been assigned to the business units default teams.

Hi Partner,

As rightly said by Henry, Please check for the roles assigned to the Business Unit or Teams for which the users are a part of as the context.userSettings.securityRoles will pull all the security roles assigned to Teams for which a user is part of.
