Hi folks,maybe you can help me again: The use-case is, that I've to check whether the current user belongs to a pre-defined group or pre-defined role. This should happen in a Java written behaviour class.I've found already a few approches (like: https://forums.alfresco.com/forum/developer-discussion

You can easily get the AuthorityService in Java:

<java>
AuthorityService authorityService = serviceRegistry.getAuthorityService();
</java>

Hi Lutz,

thanks for the answer. Unfortunately this class is not in the list of Alfresco Public API. Therefore I cannot use it. Is there any workaround only with public API?

I don't understand why you can't use it? Why ist this list so important?
