Detect if user is admin

[pwsincd]

Would you happen to know how to simply detect if a user is admin in code within custom JS CP…

var uid = req.user ? req.user.uid : 0;
user.isAdministrator(uid, function(err, isAdmin) { });

is what i have tried but things are not declared…

@pwsincd I think you can use userData.isAdmin = isAdmin; if I’m not mistaken - see
