Create a user through API

Posted on by 4

Hello, this is my first time using PowerApps and first time building an app ever and I need some guidance. I have managed to do what I want through Postman, so I know the steps. 

 

The user experience should be this 

1: They log in

2: They can type in the user information and click create and a user is created in identity application. 

 

To be able to create a user there is several parts that are required. 1: Jsessionid. 2: LtpaToken2. 3: CSRFToken 4: OrganizationId.

 

There are several problems instantly here. In the response to the login, I only get JessionID and LtpaToken2. (OrganizationId is a static value and can be ignored). I need to do a GET to a different URL to get the CSRFToken. Then I somehow have to extract the information in the response of these and feed them to the second page where the user is supposed to be created.

 

So my questions are several.

1a: Am I supposed to create a connector for this?

b: How do I target specific parts of the response with a connector?

c: Are several connectors required to make this possible?

d: If so, how do I get information I need from one connector to the next?

2: If a connector is not supposed to be used, how do I otherwise make these api calls?

    I have never seen a question like this on the forums before... what is ISIM?   How does ISIM relate to PowerApps?

    IBM Security Identity Management. I am trying to create an app in PowerApps that creates users there through rest api.

    Thanks for letting me know.  I've never heard of it before.  A quick Google search then a forums search returns nothing 😞

    I'll refer you to the docs for building custom connectors but other than that I don't know where to lead you for help.  Sorry.
