Access Rights Endpoints

List Access Rights

'GET /access/?project={project-name}'

Lists the access rights for projects. The projects for which the access rights should be returned must be specified as project options. The project can be specified multiple times.

As result a map is returned that maps the project name to ProjectAccessInfo entities.

The entries in the map are sorted by project name.
