Check User Security Role in CRM 2011 using JScript
Hi,
To use ODATA service in CRM 2011 you need two resource files
- json2.js
- JQuery.js
Add these 2 files As Web resources in CRM System & As Libraries to the “Entity” which you are calling OData Service
Below is the code to check the current user’s Security Role using JScript & OData Service
//Pass the role which you want to check, as Parameter (i.e.,System Administrator etc…)
// It fetch the role information which you passed as parameter using OData Service
function UserHasRole(roleName) {
var serverUrl = Xrm.Page.context.getServerUrl();
var oDataEndpointUrl = serverUrl + “/XRMServices/2011/OrganizationData.svc/”;
oDataEndpointUrl += “RoleSet?$top=1&$filter=Name eq ‘” + roleName + “‘”;
var service = GetRequestObject();
if (service != null) {
service.open(“GET”,oDataEndpointUrl, false);
service.setRequestHeader(“X-Requested-Width”, “XMLHttpRequest”);
service.setRequestHeader(“Accept”, “application/json,text/javascript, */*”);
service.send(null);
var requestResults = eval(‘(‘ +service.responseText + ‘)’).d;
if (requestResults != null && requestResults.results.length == 1) {
var role = requestResults.results[0];
var id = role.RoleId;
//Get Current User Roles
var currentUserRoles = Xrm.Page.context.getUserRoles();
//Check whether current user roles has the role passed as argument
for (var i = 0; i < currentUserRoles.length;i++) {
var userRole = currentUserRoles[i];
if (GuidsAreEqual(userRole, id)) {
return true;
}
}
}
}
return false;
}
function GetRequestObject() {
if (window.XMLHttpRequest) {
return new window.XMLHttpRequest;
}
else {
try {
return new ActiveXObject(“MSXML2.XMLHTTP.3.0”);
}
catch (ex) {
return null;
}
}
}
function GuidsAreEqual(guid1, guid2) {
var isEqual = false;
if (guid1 == null || guid2 == null){
isEqual = false;
}
else {
isEqual = (guid1.replace(/[{}]/g, “”).toLowerCase() == guid2.replace(/[{}]/g, “”).toLowerCase());
}
return isEqual;
}
How can I call this function? :-
if(UserHasRole(‘System Administrator’)){
alert(“Current logged-in user is System Adminstrator”);
}
Hope it helps 🙂
