Possible to export permissions for a user type?
+1Hi, I'm a brand new brand administrator. Love that Qualtrics has these community sites. I can view the user type permissions in the Qualtrics window. I want to be able to compare permissions across three different user types. Can I export the list of permissions for each user type, into something like Excel?

First thing I can think of to do it, would be to first assign those three different user types to specific users, then use the get user API call (https://api.qualtrics.com/docs/get-user) on those three users. Doing this will require some scripting knowledge however.
I don't think there's anything currently built into the permissions management that will allow for an easy export unfortunately.
Edit: After looking at the results that gets, I'm not sure I'd even recommend doing that. The permission names you get from it are pretty cryptic, and I don't see anything regarding the theme permissions either.

+1Thanks djrits! I ended up copying/pasting into Excel and then manually formatting the cells. Qualtrics support has my request to their development people as something for them to consider building.
Old post, but still relevant!
I would like to upvote this, and indeed ask for an option to export the user type, division, etc. permission setting, or provide an API to fetch them.
