[JET API or JavaScript] How to check Eikon access permisson?

Bo Feng

Hi,

Is there a way to check whether a specified user has the access permisson on a specified RIC/Chain (e.g. 0005.HK or .SQUOTA.HS) through JET API or JavaScript?

Thanks,

Bo

Hi Bo,

When you subscribe to a RIC the updatedValues parameter returned to onUpdate event handler contains STATUS object. When the user is not permissioned for the RIC the "formatted" property of the STATUS object returns "NOPERM".

function onUpdateHandler(subscription, ric, updatedValues) {
    if (updatedValues["STATUS"]) {
        if (updatedValues["STATUS"].formatted === "NOPERM") {
            //user is not permissioned for the ric
        }
    }
}

Hope this helps,
Alex
