Document permissions metadata

The source connector outputs any permissions information that it can find in the source location about the processed source documents and associates that information with each corresponding element that is generated. This permissions information is output into the permissions_data field, which is within the data_source field under the element’s metadata field. This information lists the users or groups, if any, that have permissions to read, update, or delete the element’s associated source document.
Unstructured outputs document permissions metadata that is accurate only at the point in time when Unstructured ingested the corresponding document to which those permissions applied. Because this metadata is a point-in-time copy of the permissions in the source location, these metadata outputs that are sent to your destination location are not always guaranteed to match the current permissions in the source location.Whenever Unstructured performs incremental processing of documents for a workflow (in other words, if Reprocess All Files is turned off or set to false for a workflow), that worfklow will not output metadata for any document permissions that have been added, changed, or removed since the previous workflow run, unless the corresponding documents’ content has also been changed since the previous workflow run. This is because Unstructured performs incremental processing of documents only when documents’ content has changed—not when only the documents’ permissions have changed.This permissions metadata should not be used for runtime authorization or access control enforcement.
The following example shows what the output looks like. Ellipses indicate content that has been omitted from this example for brevity.

To look up information about a particular Confluence user, use the user’s ID (also known as their account ID) from the preceding output to call the GET /wiki/rest/api/user operation in the Confluence REST API. To look up information about a particular Confluence group, use the group’s ID from the preceding output to call the GET /wiki/rest/api/group/by-id operation in the Confluence REST API.

Examples

To create a Confluence source connector, see the following examples. For more information on working with source connectors using the Unstructured API, see Source endpoints.
