Create users via REST API

extreme — Fri, 16 Jul 2021 16:34:37 GMT

Hello everybody

I'd like to create users to the Extreme Cloud by REST API (via cURL, for example).

Create a new users with password and add to certain group.

Is it possible? I didn’t found any endpoint to do it.

Could please anybody provide the endpoint if it’s possible?
Thanks in advance.

I mean, create users on this site menu:

Configure > Users > Users Groups

is it possible?

@extreme You did not find any endpoint for it? Where are you finding it?

Not exactly endpoint found because I don’t need to create a local user. Need to create a user inside this:

Configure > Users > Users Groups

curl -X POST "https://api.extremecloudiq.com/ssids/users" -H  "accept: application/json" -H  "Authorization: Bearer <JWT_TOKEN>" -H  "Content-Type: application/json" -d "{\"user_group_id\":\"<USER_GROUP_ID>\",\"name\":\"MyName1\",\"user_name\":\"EnterNewOrUseSameAsEmailPhoneOrName\",\"description\":\"AShortDescription\",\"organization\":\"TheOrganizationName\",\"visit_purpose\":\"PurposeForTheVisit\",\"password\":\"XzwtxpmWsDuxSmSqrX\",\"email_address\":\"email@mailserver.com\",\"phone_number\":\"14082147380\",\"email_password_delivery\":\"user1@mailserver.com\",\"sms_password_delivery\":\"14082147380\"}"

Here is the sample.

Modify JWT and user_group_id as per your environment

What’s USER_GROUP_ID ? an ID or the name of the group?

Also appears the following after put my JWT_TOKEN

{"error_code":"AuthInvalidToken","error_id":"5daf5eb852344dcf9ee382732c475081","error_message":"JWT strings must contain exactly 2 period characters. Found: 0"}

Each group inside an XIQ has an internal ID associated with it. You first need to do a GET request to fetch all the existing user groups. The output will include the group ID.

curl -X GET "https://api.extremecloudiq.com/ssids/usergroups?page=1&limit=10&password_db_location=PASSWORD_DB_LOCATION_UNSPECIFIED&password_type=PASSWORD_TYPE_UNSPECIFIED" -H  "accept: application/json"

Regarding JWT error: How are you generating the string?
