     One way to test this is calling the Get Folder Items endpoint using the As-User header. The As-User header lets you make API calls as a specific user. If you get a 403 error making this API call, the user does not have access to that folder.

    Thank you, Murtza.

     

    As-user looks like a great solution.  It looks like this will require a Service Account so it will be awhile before I can make use of it.
