The Retrieve Users Authorized to an Object (QSYRTVUA) API provides information about the users who are authorized to an object. The API returns the following information:
This API provides information that is similar to the Display Authority (DSPAUT) command.
*X is required for all directories in the path.
The receiver variable that receives the information requested. You can specify the size of the area to be smaller than the format requested as long as you specify the length parameter correctly. As a result, the API returns only the data that the area can hold.
The length of the receiver variable provided. The length of receiver variable parameter may be specified up to the size of the receiver variable that is specified in the user program. If the length of receiver variable parameter that is specified is larger than the allocated size of the receiver variable that is specified in the user program, the results are not predictable.
Information about the object and information about the entries that are returned in the receiver variable.
See Format of Returned Records Feedback Information for details.
The length of the returned records feedback information provided. The length of the returned records feedback information parameter may be specified up to the size of the returned records feedback information variable specified in the user program. If the length of the returned records feedback information parameter specified is larger than the allocated size of the returned records feedback information variable that is specified in the user program, the results are not predictable. The minimum length is 16 bytes.
The name of the format that is used to return information about the users who are authorized to the object.
You can specify this format:
| RTUA0100 | Each entry contains the name of the profile that is authorized to the object, whether the profile is a user profile or a group profile, and the profile's authority to the object. |
The object name.
If the length of the object name is greater than 0, then this parameter is assumed to be a path name represented in the coded character set identifier (CCSID) currently in effect for the job. If the CCSID of the job is 65535, this parameter is assumed to be represented in the default CCSID of the job.
If the length of the object name is -1, then this parameter is assumed to be a Qlg_Path_Name_T structure that contains a path name or a pointer to a path name. For more information on the Qlg_Path_Name_T structure, see Path name format.
The length of the object name. If the length is -1, the object name parameter is assumed to be a Qlg_Path_Name_T structure.
The structure in which to return error information. For the format of the structure, see Error Code Parameter.
If the last component in the path name is a symbolic link, specifies whether or not to retrieve users authorized to the symbolic link or users authorized to the object pointed to by the symbolic link.
The valid values are:
| *NO | The users authorized to the symbolic link object are
not retrieved. The users authorized to the object pointed to by the
symbolic link are retrieved.
This is the default value when the Symbolic link parameter is not specified |
| *YES | If the object is a symbolic link, the users authorized to the symbolic link object are retrieved. The users authorized to the object pointed to by the symbolic link are not retrieved. |
The following table describes the order and format of the data that is returned in the receiver variable for each user that is authorized to the object. For detailed descriptions of the fields in the table, see Field Descriptions.
