IPermissionsAdmin2 Interface

Provides administrative access to the Permissions Store.

Product Availability

Available with ArcGIS Engine, ArcGIS Desktop, and ArcGIS Server.

Description

IPermissionsAdmin2 provides methods to Allow and Deny operations on ArcGIS for Server resources and to retrieve all principals with access to resources. Additionally, it provides a method to remove all permissions on all resources for a particular principal.

The IPermissionsAdmin2 interface can be obtained by a query interface with the IServerObjectAdmin interface.

When To Use

Use the IPermissionsAdmin2 interface when your application needs to clear all permissions on all resources for a specific principal.
