Hello, How can I restrict access via RestAPI for the user such that they can only get their own records (those that have the field user_id matching their user id)?
For example, I have a a table named 'collections' that has a 'user_id' field, and I want my users to get only the collections that they created. If they try to get someone else's collection, then they should get a 'not authorized' response. As an extension, I would also like to allow for users to be able to get someone else's collection if its status is equal to 'PUBLIC'. Here's the definition of my collections table: db.define_table('collections', Field('user_id', db.auth_user, notnull=True), Field('language_code', length="3", requires=IS_IN_DB(db, 'language.code', db.language._format), notnull=True), Field('title', length=512, notnull=True), Field('description', 'text', notnull=False), Field('privacy', length=50, requires=IS_IN_SET(privacy_set), notnull=True, default='PRIVATE'), Field('level',length=10, requires=IS_IN_SET(level_set), notnull=True, default='NONE')) Thanks, -- Alexei -- Resources: - http://web2py.com - http://web2py.com/book (Documentation) - http://github.com/web2py/web2py (Source code) - https://code.google.com/p/web2py/issues/list (Report Issues) --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py-users" group.
