Description
Assign attribute definition name inheritance based on lookups by name or ID. This is new as of Grouper v2.1. Note: attribute definition name inheritance is only used for permissions (e.g. if the permission names are an org chart there would be inheritance)
Features
- Pass in one parent attribute def name lookup by name or id
- Pass in one or many child attribute def name lookup by name or id (note, only the non-lite service can pass more than one child lookup)
- Pass in whether this an assignment or a removal of an assignment
- Can replace the current child list with the inputted list (non-lite only)
- Can pass in a txType so that you can run all the changes in one transaction, or just finish the work that is possible with no enclosing transaction
- Returns if it was successful or not, and returns a string detailing how many inserts, deletes, and no-ops there were (if the inheritance or lack of already existed in that state)
- Can actAs another user
