Grouper Users - Open Discussion List

You can do composite groups with GroupSave.

For the inherited privs, in the UI it calls a method to inherit.  But it will 
also inherit from a daemon which runs nightly.  If you want it to run when 
you save a rule over WS, please open a jira and be explicit about the calls 
that you use to configure the privileges...  

Thanks
Chris

Subject: [grouper-users] Grouper REST API for Privilege Inheritance

Hi everyone,

We are trying to move automation more into the REST/grouper-ws land from the
GCLI where possible.  We have hit a wall on setting up inherited Grouper
permissions on a stem.  

As you all know, but I'm going to say anyways, if you don't set the permission
inheritance up first, any groups and stems created don't get retroactively
applied permissions.  Since we do highly decentralized management, this poses
a large problem for us.

We have group, stem, and single-execution permissions setup via the API but I
am unable to decipher what needs to happen to get inherited permissions
applied via the API.  I will be committing this back to the community, so any
help is appreciated.

Also, for extra credit, if you can help me get composite groups working, that
would save us a bit more time as well.

Thank You,
Tom Vachon
