How can I find out the roles and privileges of the logged in user?

You can duplicate some logic if there are not many roles, and you save some effort by reusing UDFs (you can call UDFs within Role predicates). There is also a way to implement generic “CurrentRoles” and “HasRole” functions using some advanced FQL to set things up for your database.

Unfortunately, there is no out-of-the-box way to do this, though.

Determine Roles of a specific User

I have defined custom roles for my users based on what they have from the Users Collection but at the same time have computed roles based on another collection.
