    Good afternoon, :smiley:

    I'm sure this is an easy one, but I'm just having trouble finding it in the JavaScript SDK docs: how do I check if the user has permission to do something? I'm guessing it's either the Users API or the Authorization API... somewhere. Or maybe I'm missing an "expand" in getUsersMe?

    1st person;

    GET /api/v2/authorization/subjects/me

    3rd person; GET /api/v2/authorization/subjects/{subjectId}

    Could also do GET /api/v2/users/me?expand=authorization

    But that's a lot more data if you don't need all info about who they are.

    Thank you very much. :smiley:

    Yeah, I would have never guessed "subjects" when talking about user permissions... funny thing tho, I was right - it was in users and in authorizations. :laughing: Anyway, like I said, thank you.
