Seeking Guidance on CORE API for Unsubscribing Users from Specific Asset
Notifications

Question

I am currently building a subscribe and unsubscribe workflow that allows users to receive notifications about changes to specific assets. While I have successfully implemented the code to add users to a subscriber role, I am struggling to determine which CORE API to use to enable users to remove themselves from these notifications. The 'remove responsibilities' API seems to be too broad, as it appears to remove all subscriber responsibilities tied to an asset, rather than targeting individual notifications.

Could anyone provide suggestions on the appropriate CORE API or method to allow users to unsubscribe from notifications for specific assets without affecting their subscriptions to other assets?

I've resolved the issue, but in case anyone wants to know how to remove a user from asset responsibility, I am posting a solution. I recommend structuring the workflow so that variables are shared if you have multiple scripts within one workflow.

import com.collibra.dgc.core.api.dto.instance.responsibility.FindResponsibilitiesRequest
import com.collibra.dgc.core.api.dto.user.FindUsersRequest

// Fetches the username
def userName = users.getCurrent()

// Fetches the user info.
def user = userApi.findUsers(FindUsersRequest.builder().name(userName).build())
                  .getResults().first()

// Role ID that we want to unsubscribe the user from.
def roleUUID = "00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000"

// Finds responsibility with inherited roles set to false and matches the user ID and asset ID.
def userResponsibility = responsibilityApi.findResponsibilities(FindResponsibilitiesRequest.builder()
                                                                .includeInherited(false)
                                                                .resourceIds([item.id])
                                                                .ownerIds([user.id])
                                                                .roleIds([string2Uuid(roleUUID)])
                                                                .build()
                                                                ).getResults()

// Removes the user from the responsibility for the asset.
responsibilityApi.removeResponsibility(userResponsibility.id)
