Abstract
An authorization check web service request is disclosed. The web service request can include a parameter controlling whether or not to perform the action associated with the web service request. The parameter can be included in the web service request itself, or it can be separated therefrom, such as being included in a customer account. Using this parameter, the requestor can perform an authorization check without actually performing the action. Thus, customers can determine the authorization result of a request without actually processing the request itself. Customers and other services can use this parameter to determine their effective permissions.
