Issue/Introduction

I want to automate the creation of the user in SV 10.5. Does IAM expose public API for the following operations?

1. authenticate admin
2. create user
3. assign role
4. reset password 

If IAM does not expose public API, then is it ok that I programmatically generate a GUID for new user and insert rows in following two tables of IAM's DB

1. USER_ENTITY
2. USER_ROLE_MAPPING

Cause

 

N/A

Environment

Release : 10.5

Component : CA Service Virtualization

Resolution

There is no API support for IAM.

Using LDAP/AD, would do away with your questions.
