TYPE 3 - ADD GRANTEE NAME TO GRANTEE OBJECT #1360
Description
Summary
Add name to the grantee object returned by the API as the ID isn't useful on its own for non-admins.
Request Type
Type 3: new functionality
Requests for totally new functionality will generally be passed to the relevant dev team, but we probably can't give any useful estimate of how or when it might be implemented. If it is a feature that is 'about' the API or programmable access, here might be the best place to suggest it, but generally feature requests will be more visible in the Tableau Community Ideas forum and should go there instead.
Description
Today we receive the grantee type and id and there's no way to infer which permissions record this is for. It would be great if non-admins could query users for the sake of grabbing names & ids for use elsewhere, but understand the reason this is not available. In lieu of this, at least providing the grantee name to facilitate auditing permissions would be useful.
