Hi,

I am trying to use the API to bulk upload users via a csv file. I am using the following example as stated in the docs https://documenter.getpostman.com/view/23973797/2s9YC5xBrz#a6d2f398-08cb-4a62-b839-c6640a5ceff1

Here's my code:

 

 

 

import requests
import json
import sys
from utils.config import base_url
from utils.auth import login


if __name__ == "__main__":
    bearer = login()

    if len(sys.argv) == 1:
        print("provide csv file")
        sys.exit(1)

    file_path = sys.argv[1]
    file_name = file_path.split("/")[-1]

    url = f"{base_url}/uploadUserRequest"

    payload = {
        "delimiter": "comma",
    }

    files = [
        (
            "file",
            (
                file_name,
                open(file_path, "rb"),
                "text/csv",
            ),
        )
    ]

    headers = {"Authorization": f"Bearer {bearer}", "Content-Type": "application/json"}

    response = requests.request("POST", url, headers=headers, data=payload, files=files)
    print(response)

    print(response.text)

 

 

 

And here's the response:

 

 

(.venv) λ /tests python -m tools.upload_csv_file.main /Users/oscar.melin/Downloads/users.csv

TERMINAL OUTPUT:
<Response [403]>
<!doctype html><html lang="en"><head><title>HTTP Status 403 – Forbidden</title><style type="text/css">body {font-family:Tahoma,Arial,sans-serif;} h1, h2, h3, b {color:white;background-color:#525D76;} h1 {font-size:22px;} h2 {font-size:16px;} h3 {font-size:14px;} p {font-size:12px;} a {color:black;} .line {height:1px;background-color:#525D76;border:none;}</style></head><body><h1>HTTP Status 403 – Forbidden</h1><script defer src="https://static.cloudflareinsights.com/beacon.min.js/v84a3a4012de94ce1a686ba8c167c359c1696973893317" integrity="sha512-euoFGowhlaLqXsPWQ48qSkBSCFs3DPRyiwVu3FjR96cMPx+Fr+gpWRhIafcHwqwCqWS42RZhIudOvEI+Ckf6MA==" data-cf-beacon='{"rayId":"846e79fdbea39920","b":1,"version":"2024.1.0","token":"88a9664171984c7baa70eaf379c7666f"}' crossorigin="anonymous"></script>
</body></html>

 

 

What am I doing wrong?

I found one issue: The url should be:

 

# base_url in this case is:
# https://my-organisation.saviyntcloud.com/ECM/api
url = f"{base_url}/v5/uploadUserRequest"

 

 But now i'm getting the following response:

 

TERMINAL OUTPUT:
>>> <Response [412]>
>>> {"msg":"file cannot be null or blank","errorcode":"1"}

 

And I can verify that the file is not null or blank.

It's me again. I have managed to get it working. I removed the is part:

 

PREVIOUS:

headers = {
  'Authorization': 'Bearer {{token}}',
  'Content-Type': 'application/json'
}

SOLUTION:
headers = {
  'Authorization': 'Bearer {{token}}'
}

# i.e., remove the "Content-Type": "application/json"

 

Here's the final code:

 

 

import requests
import sys
from utils.config import base_url
from utils.auth import login


if __name__ == "__main__":
    bearer = login()

    if len(sys.argv) == 1:
        print("You need to provide csv file")
        print("Usage:")
        print("\tpython -m tools.upload_csv_file.main /path/to/file.csv")
        sys.exit(1)

    file_path = sys.argv[1]
    file_name = file_path.split("/")[-1]

    url = f"{base_url}/v5/uploadUserRequest"

    payload = {
        "delimiter": "comma",
        "zeroDayProvisioning": "no",
        "generateSystemUsername": "yes",
        "generateEmail": "no",
        "checkrules": "yes",
    }

    with open(file_path, "rb") as f:
        data = f.read()

    files = [
        (
            "file",
            (
                file_name,
                data,
                "text/csv",
            ),
        )
    ]
    headers = {"Authorization": f"Bearer {bearer}"}

    response = requests.request("POST", url, headers=headers, data=payload, files=files)
    print(response)

    print(response.text)

 

 

The user is successfully uploaded to Saviynt. However, I am still getting an error as response:

 

 

TERMINAL OUTPUT:
>>> <Response [500]>
>>> {"msg":"error occurred while uploading users","errorcode":"1"}

 

 

Which language of code ?

The language is Python (version 3.9).

The language of code does not matter. Whether it is Java, C++ or Python, a HTTP request is still a HTTP request...
