Namespace:  WebSvcSecurity
Assembly:  ProjectServerWebServices (in ProjectServerWebServices.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
<SoapDocumentMethodAttribute("http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/project/server/webservices/Security/CheckUserGlobalPermission", RequestNamespace := "http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/project/server/webservices/Security/",  _
    ResponseNamespace := "http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/project/server/webservices/Security/",  _
    Use := SoapBindingUse.Literal, ParameterStyle := SoapParameterStyle.Wrapped)> _
Public Function CheckUserGlobalPermission ( _
    globalPermissionUid As Guid _
) As Boolean

'Usage
Dim instance As Security
Dim globalPermissionUid As Guid
Dim returnValue As Boolean

returnValue = instance.CheckUserGlobalPermission(globalPermissionUid)

[SoapDocumentMethodAttribute("http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/project/server/webservices/Security/CheckUserGlobalPermission", RequestNamespace = "http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/project/server/webservices/Security/", 
    ResponseNamespace = "http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/project/server/webservices/Security/", 
    Use = SoapBindingUse.Literal, ParameterStyle = SoapParameterStyle.Wrapped)]
public bool CheckUserGlobalPermission(
    Guid globalPermissionUid
)

Parameters

• globalPermissionUid
  Type: System.Guid
  GUID for a global permission.

Return Value

Type: System.Boolean
true if the current user has the permission.

Remarks

To check multiple global permissions, use CheckUserGlobalPermissions for better performance. To check a security permission for another resource requires using impersonation to log on as that resource.

For the globalPermissionUids parameter, use the PSSecurityCategoryPermission structure to get the GUID value of a default global permission, or use ReadGlobalPermissions to get the GUID for a custom global permission.

Project Server Permissions

Permission	Description

Examples

The following example checks if the current user has the "About Project Server" permission. For additional information and a complete sample application that checks global permissions, see Using Security Methods in the PSI.

using System;
using System.Net;
using PSLibrary = Microsoft.Office.Project.Server.Library;
. . .
CookieContainer cookiecontainer = new CookieContainer();
SecurityWebSvc.Security security = new SecurityWebSvc.Security();
security.Url = "http://ServerName/ProjectServerName/_vti_bin/psi/security.asmx";
security.CookieContainer = cookiecontainer;
security.Credentials = System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials;

//Check if the user has the "About Project Server" permission.
bool hasPermission = 
   security.CheckUserGlobalPermission(PSLibrary.PSSecurityGlobalPermission.AboutMicrosoftOfficeProjectServer);
