GET /api/apis/versions/{APIVersionID}/scope

Returns information about the current user's visibility of the API, based on an aggregate of all the visibility scopes assigned to all the groups that the user is a member of, for the specified API version.

This operation returns information about the portions of the API version that the user has visibility to (licenses, operations, and scopes) based on group membership; but if the user is an API Admin, Business Admin, or Site Admin, the AllAPIVisible property is true and the user has full visibility of the API, independent of the visibility information returned in the response.

Authorization Roles/Permissions: Must have Read permission for the resource. Note that if the allAPIVisible parameter is returned with a value of true, the user has full permission to view the API, which might exceed the specific scope, license, and operation results returned.

Response Headers

For general information on response header values, refer to HTTP Response Headers.

Header Description
Content-Type application/json, application/xml, application/vnd.soa.v71+json, application/vnd.soa.v71+xml, application/vnd.soa.v72+json, application/vnd.soa.v72+xml, application/vnd.soa.v80+json, application/vnd.soa.v80+xml, application/vnd.soa.v81+json, application/vnd.soa.v81+xml

Response Body

Name Type Description
APIVisibilityScope APIVisibilityScope

Contains information about the visibility of an API scope.

Note: if the value of the AllAPIVisible response property is true, the current user has full visibility of the API. In this case, the operation still returns an aggregate of all the visibility scopes assigned to all the groups that the user is a member of, which might not be a full reflection of the user's visibility into the API. For example, the user might be a member of groups that do not have visibility into all scopes, but if the user is an API Admin or Business Admin he/she will have visibility of all scopes that apply to the API.

Error Codes/Messages

If the call is unsuccessful an error code/message is returned. One or more examples of possible errors for this operation are shown below.

Item Value
401 Unauthorized. For example, you would get this response if you didn't include the custom X-Csrf-Token_{fedmemberID} header in the request, when it was required by the platform settings; or if you included an invalid or expired value for this header. You would also get this response for any operation that requires login (almost all) if the login cookie was missing.
403 Forbidden. The user is not logged in, or does not have permission to view the specified API version.
500 An error occurred processing the call.
