getRoles( )

Retrieves the member's roles.

getRoles() returns a Promise that resolves to the roles of the currently logged-in member. If no member is currently logged in, the Promise is rejected.

Notes:

  • The member data in the resolved promise will only include custom fields from a site's contacts if those fields are added to a site's members in a dashboard.
  • The frontend Members APIs aren't fully functional when previewing a site. View a published version of a site to see their complete functionality.

The following results are returned depending on the session identity:
