There are 4 new web service operations in Grouper 2.1.  These are to satisfy the use case of centralized permission managements where the resources are dynamic (e.g. in an application securing folders and files, someone could create a new folder or file, and the permission resources need to be created via WS).

 

This new WS operation is for find deleting attribute definition names (or permission names)

Delete attribute definition names based on name or ID. This is new as of Grouper v2.1

Features

 

    Delete attribute definition name based on name or ID

    Non-lite service can delete multiple attributeDefNames at once

    Can pass in a txType so that you can run all the deletes in one transaction, or just finish the work that is possible with no enclosing transaction

    Returns attribute definition name(s), and the result code of if it was deleted or not (still a success if it didnt exist, though if the folder didnt exist, that is bad)

    Can actAs another user
