<h3>Authorities and Locks</h3>
<dl>
<dt><em>EIM Data</em></dt>
<dd>Access to EIM data is controlled by EIM access groups. LDAP administrators
also have access to EIM data. The access groups whose members have authority to
the EIM data for this API follow:
<ul>
<li>EIM Administrator</li>
<li>EIM Registries Administrator</li>
<li>EIM Identifiers Administrator</li>
<li>EIM Mapping Lookup</li>
<li>EIM authority to an individual registry</li>
</ul>
<p>The list returned contains only the information that the user has authority
to access.</p>
