Dear Friends

How can I set  read write permissions to file or node with alfresco REST API for individual users?

The best way to understand the REST API is to take a look at the API Explorer.

In this case, you'll find out that you can set local permissions by using the update node API.

Hello Alfresco Community,

I'm using alfresco-sdk-client (developed byJean Marie Pascal and Gavin Cornwell).

I set successfully permission on file, but I can not return permission object in Response object

My code:

List<PermissionElementRepresentation> users = new ArrayList<PermissionElementRepresentation>();
PermissionElementRepresentation user = new PermissionElementRepresentation();
user.setAuthorityId("dato");
user.setName("read");
user.setAccessStatus(AccessStatusEnum.ALLOWED);
users.add(user);

PermissionsBodyUpdate permission = new PermissionsBodyUpdate(false, users);
NodeBodyUpdate permissionRequest = new NodeBodyUpdate(permission);

Response<NodeRepresentation> permissionResponse = nodeService.updateNodeCall(createdNodeResponse.body().getId(), permissionRequest)
.execute();

But in permissionResponse object the permission object is null

Please Help me

I successfully resolve this problem:

I add two arguments IncludeParam and FieldsParam to nodeService.updateNodeCall function and get expected result:

List<String> fieldPermission = new ArrayList<>();
fieldPermission.add("permissions");
IncludeParam fieldValues = new IncludeParam(fieldPermission);
FieldsParam field = new FieldsParam(fieldPermission);
Response<NodeRepresentation> permissionResponse = nodeService.updateNodeCall(createdNodeResponse.body().getId(), permissionRequest, fieldValues, field)
.execute();

Assert.assertEquals(permissionResponse.body().getPermissions().getLocallySet(), users, "Permission is wrong");

Thanks All
