Issue/Introduction
I am trying to create a REST PUT / PATCH request for updating a resource / user groups, I always get below error.
{
"resourceId": "12345",
"httpStatus": "400",
"errorMessage": "CMN-0016: Attribute 'user_groups' has an invalid value",
"errorCode": "validation.invalidValue"
}
Request Body:
{
"lastName": "Smith",
"secondaryEmail": "abc.xyz@example.com",
"externalId": "xxx@example.com",
"resourceName": "20022670",
"userName": "xxx@example.com",
"_internalId": 12345,
"firstName": "John",
"email": "no-reply@example.com",
"language": "1",
"status": "202",
"userGroups": {
"displayValue": "Basic group for user access",
"id": "5000323"
}
}
Resolution
The correct syntax to update User Groups should be
{"lastName":"Last","lastUpdatedBy":"abc, abc","secondaryEmail": abc@example.com,"externalId": last@example.com,"resourceName":"20022670","userName": xxx@example.com,"_internalId":5134544,"firstName":"First","lastUpdatedDate":"2022-05-18T14:24:46","createdDate":"2020-11-17T10:45:25","createdBy":"abc, abc","company": null,"middleName": null,"email": no-reply@example.com,"status":"200","locale":"en_GB","language":"2","timezone":"Australia/Sydney","userGroups": ["5000323","5214546"]}
