Thinking out loud. Active Directory has the member of attribute you might be able to expose depending on your configuration (ie. custom attributes).

Hi Sushant,
Currently there's no quick and easy way to do this. I've dug into this quite a bit recently, and contacted IBM about it. So far I've found that it's possible to traverse through AD and get a list of each role/group, but that's very slow and cumbersome. I'm not sure there is a convenient way of doing this.

Hi,
There is a REST call to get a User and there is also a REST call to get the members of a Group or a Role. But is there a way to get all the Roles and Groups of a given user with {{user_ID}} through the REST APIs?
Something along the lines of /api/v1/users/{{user_ID}}/groups
and /api/v1/users/{{user_ID}}/roles
. Please let me know if this is available or if I can get the desired result through a different way.
Thanks,
Sushant.
