Overview

Remove a permission from a portal user's permission set. Permissions control which features in the SoftLayer customer portal and API a user may use. Removing a user's permission will affect that user's portal and API access. If the user does not have the permission you're attempting to remove then removePortalPermission() returns true.

Users can assign permissions to their child users, but not to themselves. An account's master has all portal permissions and can set permissions for any of the other users on their account.

Use the SoftLayer_User_Customer_CustomerPermission_Permission::getAllObjects method to retrieve a list of all permissions available in the SoftLayer customer portal and API. Permissions are removed based on the keyName property of the permission parameter.

removePortalPermission returns the boolean data type.
