Sage CRM 2021 R1 has provided support for a RESTful endpoint that will provide a developer with two actions for retrieving information about a user's preferences.

The Sage CRM UserData endpoint can be passed an Action.

UserData Actions

• getCalendarUserPreferences
• getCalendarTranslations

getCalendarUserPreferences

http://{{server}}/sdata/{{install}}j/userdata?Action=getCalendarUserPreferences&SID={{sid}}

The Response is a JSON object that describes the user calendar preferences. See: https://help.sagecrm.com/on_premise/en/2021R1/main%20menu/Content/User/PR_Preferences-DateTime.htm 

Example Return

{
   "NSET_CALENDARVIEW":"workweek",
   "NSET_DIARYENDTIME":"17:30",
   "NSET_USERDATEFORMAT":"dd/MM/yyyy",
   "NSET_DIARYSTARTTIME":"08:00",
   "NSET_TIMEZONE":"Europe/London",
   "NSET_WEEKSTARTDAY":"2",
   "NSET_USERUSEAMPM":"N"
}

getCalendarTranslations

http://{{server}}/sdata/{{install}}j/userdata?Action=getCalendarTranslations&SID={{sid}}

The Response is a JSON object that provides the translations for each of the calendar captions appropriate for that user (e.g French, German, US English). This information is drawn from the Custom Captions table within metadata. This is described in the System Administration Guide: https://help.sagecrm.com/on_premise/en/2021R1/administration/Content/Administrator/TR_TransListMethod.htm
