Scope update

[criss07]

Hi, 

I have a question regarding scope update. We can create scopes by using:

result, scope_result = self._client.create_sync("datalayer/security/scopes", variant)

In case our scope already exists the result is Result.ALREADY_EXISTS even if the permissions inside the scopes have changed and only the scope name is the same. Is there a method to check if the contents of the scope is changed? Or what approach should I use?

Best regards, 

Criss 🙂

Hi Chriss, 

you could implement a logic, after you get the result "ALREADY_EXISTS", that does a Data Layer Read to "datalayer/security/scopes/<your_scopename>" and checks if the content matches what you are expecting.

Or you can also keep it simpler and just send a write to "datalayer/security/scopes/<your_scopename>" and overwrite the value at the scope. 

Best regards, 

Nick
