Hi, is there a way to get the required designer project permissions via the web-api or via a file on the system? ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/4/4/444cdec4c5161d4e812416082e3575a3c8f39806.png) Thank you, André ---

Hmm, I think maybe not. These are part of the `global-props` type of resource that you would find in a project at `data/projects/$project/ignition/global-props`, but its data/payload is serialized in a binary format. The web API is generally for gateway config, where this is something that each project has. ---

Makes sense, thank you! ---

Just curious - what's the task you're trying to accomplish here? ---

I want to qualify the installation with a script. One Test Case is to check that the projects have audit trial enabled and the correct permissions set. But this is optional, it can also be verified manually ---

If you've got webdev, you could script an endpoint that when queried uses internal APIs to go through each project, decode the global props resource, and return a value. Probably not worth the engineering effort vs doing it manually (and it would be considered "unsupported"/subject to breaking across major version changes) but it's not an impossible task. 🤷‍♂️ ---

Most likely not worth the effort but good to know. Thank you. I was also not able to find a API for the Web Server Settings. Is this correct, although it is a gateway conf and not a project ressource?
