Urgent! Bypassing user permissions in oscript code

ATHANASSIOS_FAMELIARIS

There are many occasions where I want to be able to delete a node, but I can't, because the user that triggered the request does not have delete permissions on the node. However, I must be able to bypass these permissions when running custom code. This code is part of my business logic, regardless of the user which is logged in! So far, I have made sure to assign delete permissions to users programmatically, but this has security side-effects.Is there a way to do this? I would greatly appreciate ANY suggestions. I'm in a desperate situation. Thanks in advance!Yiannosp.s.I know I can get an Admin prgCtx from the following code:---String cnctName = $Kernel.SystemPreferences.GetPrefGeneral( 'DftConnection' )Assoc prgAssoc = $LLIApi.PrgSession.CreateNewNamed( cnctName, { "Admin", undefined } )Dynamic prgCtx = prgAssoc.pSession----but the DAPI.DeleteNode() function does not use the prgCtx.

Message from Hans Stoop via eLinkHi Yiannos,What you should do is getting the Admin PrgCtx. With the admin prgCtxretrieve the node again that you want to delete. Do the delete with thisnode.Hans> -----Original Message-----> From: eLink Discussion: Development Discussion > [mailto:development@elinkkc.opentext.com] > Sent: dinsdag 25 oktober 2005 14:39> To: eLink Recipient> Subject: Urgent!
