Querying UserGroup access to reports

I’ve been reading through some other topics and found someone in 2008 asking the same thing, but with no answer.

Is there a way (through QueryBuilder or SDK) to query what usergroups/users have access to what reports?

I can get the information for usergroups that have access to universes using “SI_Name = ‘Universe-UserGroup’”, but I haven’t figured out how to do reports.

This isn’t possible through Query Builder because it does not expose security relationships. The SDK is certainly capable and I think there may be a routine in the downloads area which does what you’re looking for or close to it.

Thanks for the reply. I’ve looked through the downloads quite a few times now… I’m not sure I know which one you’re talking about, and searching for keywords like security, rights or privileges seem to turn up nothing relevant. Do you remember the name of the one you’re referring to?

I was thinking of the repository documentor, but it lists the report-universe relationships sans security.
