Hi all,
I am using liferay 4.2, and I want to alter users permissions on authentication point in the application.

I have noticed that in PermissionLocalServiceUtil.java there is a method to get them ... getUserPermissions(java.lang.String userId, java.lang.String resourceId).

Thus to get the resource id , what must i do?

Alternatively I noticed another method in UserLocalServiceUtil.java ..

getPermissionUsers(java.lang.String companyId, java.lang.String groupId, java.lang.String name, java.lang.String primKey, java.lang.String actionId, java.lang.String firstName, java.lang.String middleName, java.lang.String lastName, java.lang.String emailAddress, boolean andOperator, int begin, int end)


Would this be a better port of call to get all permission associated with a user?? and if some where can i find more
info on parameters I need to pass.


Regards

Gary

Do you want to administer your permissions based on resources?

I think the better way is to create user groups and roles and when you Authenticate add users to correct groups. That is what we do in our app - we synchronize LDAP groups, but we assign roles in Liferay using their GUI.
