In Oracle Analytics Cloud, users can programmatically review and change the access control list for catalog objects using the catalog REST API. This API is particularly useful to administrators, for example:

After a user leaves the organization, administrators might need to give other users access to that user's content.
Administrators might need to keep track of the access granted to certain folders and assets.
