Error message

not implement: get user permission: {user_name}

What it means

RoleMgr.get_user_permission (admin/server/roles.py:76) is the last stub of the RoleMgr surface: logs 'not implement: get user permission: {user_name}' and raises AdminException. Effective-permission queries for a user are unimplemented; the call returns no data.

Solutions

  1. Derive permissions from what is implemented: check is_superuser and the user's tenant roles directly.
  2. Implement in a fork if you need an effective-permission API.
Defensive patterns

Strategy: try-catch

Validate before calling

def user_permission_supported() -> bool:
    # RoleMgr.get_user_permission is a stub in this version
    return False

Try / catch

from api.common.exceptions import AdminException
try:
    perms = RoleMgr.get_user_permission(user)
except AdminException as e:
    if str(e).startswith("not implement"):
        perms = {"superuser": bool(user_row.is_superuser)}  # derive from implemented fields
    else:
        raise

Prevention

When it happens

Trigger: Calling RoleMgr.get_user_permission(user_name), e.g. an admin UI 'view user permissions' action or an authorization check in custom tooling.

Common situations: Audit tooling enumerating what a user may do; debugging 403s by inspecting permissions (which instead raises this).
