Using the getOwnerId API

You can use the getOwnerId API to check if a private planning version is owned by the current user of the private version.

The check is necessary because a user cannot perform certain operations on a private version like delete, copy, or publish if the version is not owned by the user.

Before you start

This API can only be called on a private version and is therefore not relevant for BPC models.

Example

The following script shows how you can use the getOwnerId API:

Sample Code

// check if the private version is owned by the current user 

var privateVersion = Table_1.getPlanning().getPrivateVersion("privateVersionName");

if (privateVersion && privateVersion.getOwnerId() === Application.getUserInfo().id) {

    privateVersion.deleteVersion();

} else {

    // fallback. e.g. show message to user that they may not do certain operations on this version (delete, copy, publish) 

}
