Policy Definition

Policy configuration used by the AI Developer Edition API Service.

The superuser has all permissions, that is, protect, unprotect, and reprotect operations. Users assigned the admin role will receive protected data when performing an unprotect operation, except in the case of the text data elements, which will return null. All other user roles will receive null as the output for any unprotect operation.
