Hi Shani, thanks for your reply.
My question is not about assigning permissions, but rather about querying permissions assigned to a given VM. I need to get a list of permissions, assigned to the VM without the permissions this VM inherits from parent objects. Unluckily for me the /ovirt-engine/api/vms/<vm-id>/permissions service returns the list containing both VM-specific and inherited permissions, which cannot be distinguished. Thanks and regards, Anton.
