[MarkLogic Dev General] Does xdmp:document-add-permissions givearole the requested access permission on all documents in adirectory?

[Frank Sanders]

As long as inherit permissions is set to true on the database, any documents
created within that directory *after* your command is executed will be
readable by business-role. Any docs created before setting the permissions
for business role on the directory will need to be updated, as Danny points
out.

It only modifies the permissions for the specified URI, whether that URI
is a document or a directory.  If you want to add a permission to each
document in the directory, you must update each document's permissions.

arole the requested access permission on all documents in adirectory?

For example, will the following command give the role "business-role"
read
access to all the documents in "/Directory-URI-Root/" or do permissions
need
to be set for each individual document?

xdmp:document-add-permissions(
    "/Directory-URI-Root/", xdmp:permission("business-role", "read"))

Thx,

Tim
