Overview
The Permission Level Transfer Report can be exported through the DryvIQ Platform user interface or through the REST API. It provides the permissions assigned to each item at all levels of the hierarchy that were applied during transfer. The report includes only applied or equal permissions. The export does not include failed, skipped, or removed permissions.
In addition to providing information for the permissions applied for a job, the export can be used as a tool to expedite the creation of new permission mappings. The Permissions Import feature will accept the format of the Permission Level Transfer export, so you can use the export to create new permission maps as needed. Simply export the report, edit permissions as needed, and import the the CSV file as the permission mapping for the job you are creating.
The following features use permissions and will all generate the information for the report:
Basic transfer, Folder mapping, User account mapping, Network home drive mapping
Simulation Mode/Analyzer
Transfer in one direction with copy & both directions with sync
Jobs using Impersonation / Run as user
Exporting the Report in the User Interface
The Permission report available for export in the DryvIQ user interface is a full permission export. The report is saved as a CSV file in your default downloads location. (Some browsers will also display the file at the bottom of the browser window for quick access.) You can export the report from the Jobs and Reports areas.

Exporting the Report Through the REST API
When exporting the report using a REST API call, you have the option of receiving a link through the call or viewing the CSV data within the response.

Override the Truncation Limit
Since the UI export only includes one million records, you can pull the report using the API to override the truncation limit. This is done by adding the page= and limit= parameters to the GET request. This allows you to pull the full report by page if needed.
