kalyan kumar kalvagadda commented on SENTRY-2327: ------------------------------------------------- [~aholley] Sentry would respond with the configuration only the AP'sI are invoked by sentry service admin. > Provide API on SentryPolicyServiceClient for admin and configuration checks. > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: SENTRY-2327 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SENTRY-2327 > Project: Sentry > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Service > Reporter: Adam Holley > Priority: Major > > Currently if I want to check if a user is an administrator I either check the > local sentry config file or make a call that is only accessible to sentry > admin and check for an exception. Additionally, If I want to see if an > specific configuration is enabled, I need to check the local sentry config > which could bypass the sentry server config. > What I'd like is to have a method or two that allows this through the > SentryPolicyServiceClient. e.g. > boolean client.isAdmin(String user) > boolean client.isOwnerPrivilegeEnabled() > boolean client.isOwnerPrivilegeWithGrantEnabled() -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
