[[security-api-get-role-mapping-prereqs]]

[[security-api-get-role-mapping-desc]]

Role mappings define which roles are assigned to each user. For more information,
see {stack-ov}/mapping-roles.html[Mapping users and groups to roles].
[[security-api-get-role-mapping-path-params]]
==== {api-path-parms-title}
`name`::
(Optional, string) The distinct name that identifies the role mapping. The name
is used solely as an identifier to facilitate interaction via the API; it does
not affect the behavior of the mapping in any way. You can specify multiple
mapping names as a comma-separated list. If you do not specify this
parameter, the API returns information about all role mappings.
[[security-api-get-role-mapping-response-body]]
==== {api-response-body-title}
A successful call retrieves an object, where the keys are the
names of the request mappings, and the values are the JSON representation of
those mappings. For more information, see
<<role-mapping-resources>>.
[[security-api-get-role-mapping-response-codes]]
==== {api-response-codes-title}
If there is no mapping with the requested name, the
response will have status code `404`.
