def get_roles(): from AccessControl.Role import RoleManager rs=RoleManager().userdefined_roles() return rs i tried this in an external method but i only get: ('Anonymous', 'Authenticated', 'Manager', 'Owner') and not all the roles i have defined in the folder. I also tried the methods: get_local_roles and valid_roles I'm probably not using the right method, or doing something wrong. Any further tips?

Hi everyone,

I need to get all the roles that are defined in the security tab of a particular folder.

I know how to get all roles that a user has got, but cannot find the above.

Thanks, Josh

AccessControl/Role.py is your friend. The mix-in class is a RoleManager.
