Description
Previously, assigning devices to assets required the ASSETS_ADMIN and
the INVENTORY_UPDATE permission, which was overly restrictive for users
who only needed to manage asset linking and relationships. The Asset API
now allows users with the LINKING_UPDATE permission to assign devices to
assets if the assets.permission.mode is set to either ALL, or
EXTERNAL and the asset is an external asset. An asset is considered
external if it has the marker fragment c8y_ExternalAsset.
