1. Definitely using PATCH
2. I have tried in C# code, Postman and in the Swagger interface
3. as above i have tried through a few different methods so i suspect not
4. Request Headers are just authentication which is just the basic base 64 encoded username:password pair
5.REST URL is : /a/api/v4/users-groups/{group}/permissions where group is the group id i a trying to set (in this case 24)
hope this helps, its strange as we do get a response from the api its just the result is false and nothing changes

Hi Jacob,
I try validating in the lab instance running version 6.5.0.1000 and I am able to see the permissions are getting correctly setup. The request body I used is below.
{
"applicationPermissions": [
{
"canApproveReleasesInAllEnvironments": true,
"canExecuteProcessesInAllEnvironments": true,
"canExecuteReleasesInAllEnvironments": true,
"canView": true,
"canViewExecutionComponents": true,
"deploymentPlanDesigner": true,
"description": "string",
"designViewer": true,
"designer": true,
"environmentPermissions": [
{
"admin": false,
"canApproveAllReleases": true,
"canExecuteAllProcesses": true,
"canExecuteAllReleases": true,
"description": "Updated via Rest",
"id": 3,
"name": "ENV2",
"processesCanExecute": [
],
"releaseDesigner": true,
"templateCategoriesCanDeploy": [
]
}
],
"id": 3,
"name": "TEST",
"owner": false,
"publisher": false,
"releasesTemplateDesigner": true
}
],
"groupIds": [
1
]
}
Can you please confirm on some information below
1: What is the HTTP METHOD you are using? (The HTTP method is PATCH for this API)
2: What type of client you are using?
3: I noticed that the request take some long time by any chance is there any timeout occurring.
4: If possible can you please share with us the request headers of your request?
5: What is the REST URL you used? In lab instance it is like
http://NAC-IP:PORT/datamanagement/a/api/v4/users-groups/permissions
Regards,
Saurabh

I'm trying to bulk update permissions in RA After adding 7 new environments to every application.
I send this data:
{
"applicationPermissions": [
{
"canApproveReleasesInAllEnvironments": false,
"canExecuteProcessesInAllEnvironments": false,
"canExecuteReleasesInAllEnvironments": false,
"canView": true,
"canViewExecutionComponents": true,
"deploymentPlanDesigner": true,
"description": "Updated with RA Permissions Utility",
"designViewer": true,
"designer": true,
"environmentPermissions": [
{
"admin": false,
"canApproveAllReleases": true,
"canExecuteAllProcesses": true,
"canExecuteAllReleases": true,
"description": "Updated with RA Permissions Utility",
"id": 7071,
"name": "EARTH",
"processesCanExecute": [
{
}
],
"releaseDesigner": true,
"templateCategoriesCanDeploy": [
]
}
],
"id": 1008,
"name": "TestApplication1",
"owner": false,
"publisher": false,
"releasesTemplateDesigner": true
}
],
"groupIds": [
24
]
}
and the reply i get it:
{
"result": false,
"description": ""
}
which suggests to me that everything i am sending is right, but RA still doesnt make any changes. The user i am using is a superuser in RA so i can't see how that could be any issue.
We are currently running Version 6.5.0.10153
