API access is restricted to super users only?

Is it possible to give some non-super users access to modify a few limited number of fields via the API?

Hi Nidhi,

The Clarizen API is not restricted to super users only. Any user can use our API. All relevant user permissions are respected.

Regards.

Thanks Alex - I've made a test user the project manager on a project and am trying to update the project "Name" using the API. I find that only when the test user is marked as Admin is the query able to update the project Name. Is there a way to allow  access to PMs to project fields without giving them Admin access?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi Nidhi,

It sounds weird. Any action available for the user in the Clarizen UI is available in the Clarizen API as well.

It means that if some user can update the item in UI, this user can update that item in the API too.

Please check your API requests again. We do not require admin permissions in API.

If you still have issues with this, please open a support ticket.
