Set Permissions in Document Manager

You can set permissions for files and folders in the Document Manager (DM) by way of the RESTful web services.

Setting permissions to folders and documents in the DM to users or groups through REST Services involves one of the following:

Granting explicit permissions (calling out a file or folder, specifying user or group name, and granting permissions to those users or groups)
Inheriting permissions from a parent folder into child files or folders
Applying (pushing) permissions from a parent folder to sub-folders or files
Remove users or groups from having permissions to files or folders in the DM through REST Services
Get permissions on files or folders using REST Services

Authorization

Each V1 REST service includes a JWT token in the Authorization header. The integration username and password are required to create this token (for more information on creating this user, see Integration Users in the Unifier General Administration Guide). Make a GET request to "/ws/rest/service/v1/login" service with integration username and password as Basic Authentication. For more details, see V1 Get Token REST Service for Basic Authentication.

If the call is successful with 200 response code, the response will contain the JWT token and the expiry date (the token is valid for 6 months from issuance).

The 401 status code will be returned when the username/password combination is incorrect, the User is not an integration user, or when the User is not active.
