user rights with the web API

Support - Assistance technique
#1

Hello,

I’m investigating the possibilities to create a reporting module to DHIS2 from another HIS, using the web API.

On the web demo, I created a data entry clerk user in one facility, so that my software can use that profile to send its reports. Using the web API with those credentials, I can enter data for another unrelated facility. Note that I can’t do the same if I use the web pages instead. Is this normal or am I missing something?

Thank you,

Loïc

PS : any pointer to more information about using the web API is very welcome!

Hello Loic,

your observation is correct, we have not yet enforced that. We will fix it soon.
