)

Issue a request to change the principal for the current (active) session.

Parameters
sessionThe session handle. If NULL, this function has no effect.

const DIFFUSION_GET_GLOBAL_PERMISSIONS_PARAMS_T  params,
DIFFUSION_API_ERROR api_error 
)

Query the global permissions assigned to the calling session.
