      mandatory - This method must be implemented.
    • canCreateCompositionEnabler

      boolean canCreateCompositionEnabler()
      Tests if this user can create composition enablers. A return of true does not guarantee successful authorization. A return of false indicates that it is known creating a CompositionEnabler will result in a PERMISSION_DENIED. This is intended as a hint to an application that may opt not to offer create operations to an unauthorized user.
      Returns:
      false if CompositionEnabler creation is not authorized, true otherwise
      Compliance:
      mandatory - This method must be implemented.
    • canCreateCompositionEnablerWithRecordTypes

      boolean canCreateCompositionEnablerWithRecordTypes(Type[] compositionEnablerRecordTypes)
      Tests if this user can create a single CompositionEnabler using the desired record types. While RepositoryRulesManager.getCompositionEnablerRecordTypes() can be used to examine which records are supported, this method tests which record(s) are required for creating a specific CompositionEnabler. Providing an empty array tests if a CompositionEnabler can be created with no records.
      Parameters:
      compositionEnablerRecordTypes - array of composition enabler types
      Returns:
      true if CompositionEnabler creation using the specified record Types is supported, false otherwise
      Throws:
      NullArgumentException - compositionEnablerRecordTypes is null
      Compliance:
      mandatory - This method must be implemented.
    • getCompositionEnablerFormForCreate

      CompositionEnablerForm getCompositionEnablerFormForCreate(Type[] compositionEnablerRecordTypes) throws OperationFailedException, PermissionDeniedException

      Parameters:
      compositionEnablerRecordTypes - array of composition enabler types
      Returns:
      the composition enabler form
      Throws:
      NullArgumentException - compositionEnablerRecordTypes is null
      OperationFailedException - unable to complete request
      PermissionDeniedException - authorization failure
