Environment

Symantec Risk Authentication 9.1.5 CP1

Resolution

SDK arcot-riskfort-issuance.jar works as expected with Risk Authentication Server 9.1.5.1.

Below is a sample implementation for reference:

UserRepManager.initialize(config);
UserRepositoryService userRepService = UserRepManager.getGrpUserRepService();
User user = UserManager.getNewUserObject("username", "orgname");
userRepService.create(user, null);
UserRepManager.release();
