Syntax

obj_inherits(path)

Input

Argument Type Description

Argument	Type	Description
`path`	text	A path to an object (e.g., table, folder, query) The `path` parameter can be a scalar value (e.g., pub.demo.retail.item) or the name of a column containing paths to objects. If `path` is the empty string (e.g., `''`), the function returns information corresponding to the root-level folder, which contains all of the top-level folders (e.g., pub, default, uploads).

path

text

A path to an object (e.g., table, folder, query)

The path parameter can be a scalar value (e.g., pub.demo.retail.item) or the name of a column containing paths to objects.

If path is the empty string (e.g., ''), the function returns information corresponding to the root-level folder, which contains all of the top-level folders (e.g., pub, default, uploads).

Return Value

Returns an integer value of 1 or 0 that indicates whether or not the object at the specified path inherits user access from the parent folder. When the return value is 1, users who have access permission to the parent folder also have access to the object at the specified path.

Returns 0 if the path does not exist.

Example

The following example demonstrates the behavior of obj_inherits(path) using the values in the example_path column specified via the <table> element.

<table cols="example_path">pub.demo.retail;
  pub.demo.retail.item;
  pub.demo.retail.selectionlib;
  pub.demo.retail.foo;
  default.doc.interactive.trsgsg_qa;
  default.doc.interactive.doc_lib;
  foo;
  ;
</table>
<col name="example_path" format="width:35"/>
<willbe name="obj_inherits_result" value="obj_inherits(example_path)"/>

Note: When the value of the path parameter is equal to the empty string, the function returns information corresponding to the root-level folder in the 1010data Insights Platform, which contains all of the top-level folders (e.g., pub, default, uploads).
