Hello,

    Hi,
     
    You can use the following code to get the security roles of the record owner.
     
    Xrm.WebApi.retrieveMultipleRecords("systemuser", "?$filter=fullname eq '<CRM User Name>'&$select=fullname&$expand=systemuserroles_association($select=name)").then(
        function success(result) {
            var securityRoles = result.entities[0].systemuserroles_association;
            for (var i = 0; i < securityRoles.length; i++) {
                console.log(securityRoles[i].name);
            }  
           
        },
        function (error) {
            console.log(error.message);
        }
    );
     
    In my testing, I was the System Administrator, and the owner of the records was me.
    The security roles I get using the code provided above are the same as the officially provided API: Xrm.Utility.getGlobalContext().userSettings.roles.
