The Authorization API provides endpoints that allow you to call specific HasAccess() checks against a selected resource. This allows you to view what the people in your environment can do with specific resources, as well as view their current roles and other assignments.

In the examples, be sure to replace {Your_Access_Token} with your token and {Your_API_Key} with the API key for your application.
