Notes
 •
If you specify the context for the current calculation, this function will be evaluated based on that context; otherwise, it will be evaluated based on the context of the current window.

Example 1 
If you are logged in with a privilege set that includes only the Access via FileMaker WebDirect extended privilege:
Get ( AccountExtendedPrivileges ) returns fmwebdirect.
Example 2 
If you are logged in and running a script with full access privileges, Get(AccountExtendedPrivileges) returns the extended privileges for your account. (By contrast, Get(CurrentExtendedPrivileges) returns the extended privileges for the Admin account.)
Assume the [Read-Only Access] privilege set includes the Access via FileMaker Network extended privilege, and the [Full Access] privilege set includes the Access via FileMaker Network and Access via FileMaker WebDirect extended privileges. If you are logged in with the Guest account and run a script set to run with full access privileges:
Get ( AccountExtendedPrivileges ) returns fmapp
Get ( CurrentExtendedPrivileges ) returns
fmapp
fmwebdirect
