Get permission for Folder in REST API

I want to find out from the REST API what permsiins the user has for a folder. I specifically want to know if I can add documents to a folder and delete the folder. When I get nodes under the folder node (sample URL /otcs/cs.exe/api/v1/nodes/10247/nodes) I am returned permission under data as perm_delete, perm_create etc. If I want to get the permission on a particular node ( e.g. sample URL /otcs/cs.exe/api/v1/nodes/10247 ) the permission information is not returned. addable_types is returned but this includes document when the user does not have permission to add a document.
Is there any way in the REST API to get the permission for a specified folder?

Hello Alan,

Looking at the API reference I don't see a way to do it either. You may want to log a support ticket and ask for a feature request for this specific function.

I suppose you could query the children of the parent ID or base your logic off the HTTP response coming back from Content Server to drive if they have permissions going forward.
