Notice: Over the next few months, we're reorganizing the App Engine documentation site to make it easier to find content and better align with the rest of Google Cloud products. The same content will be available, but the navigation will now match the rest of the Cloud products. If you have feedback or questions as you navigate the site, click Send Feedback.

As PHP version 5.5 is no longer supported by the community, we strongly recommend new apps use the PHP 7+ runtime.

isCurrentUserAdmin

STATIC

isCurrentUserAdmin() : boolean

Return true if the user making this request is an admin for this application, false otherwise.

Returns

boolean

Whether the current user is an administrator of the application.
