Hi Team,

Connector used: REST
I am facing some issue with account Id Path in Create Account JSON for REST application. Below is the CreateAccount JSON that we are using. 

{
"accountIdPath": "call1.message",
"responseColsToPropsMap": {
"accountID": "@UniqueID~#~char"
},
"call": [
{
"connection": "acctAuth",
"name": "call1",
"url": "http://xxxxx/names.nsf/api/data/xxxxxxxx",
"httpMethod": "POST",
"httpHeaders": {
"Authorization": "${access_token}",
"ContentType": "application/json"
},
"httpContentType": "application/json",
"httpParams": "{\"ShortName\": \"${user.username}\",\"FirstName\": \"${user.firstname}\",\"LastName\": \"${user.lastname}\",\"InternetAddress\": \"${user.email}\",\"MailAddress\": \"${user.email}\",\"password\": \"${password}\",\"form\": \"Person\",\"MailSystem\": \"1\"}",
"successResponses": {
"statusCode": [
200,
201,
204
]
},
"unsuccessResponses": {
"statusCode": [
400,
401,
403,
404,
405,
500
]
}
}
]
}

User is getting created and also access is getting mapped. Post account creation,  there is a UniqueID that is being created in the application end against that user. We need to map this generated unique Id to accountID attribute in user's account when we perform the recon. 

Also note, the unique attribute is not coming in response, we jsut have 201 created in the response. 

Could you please review the JSON and help me get the uniqueid in the accountid field.in updating the createaccount json accordingly.

Also I am attaching the importaccountjson too for reference.
Please suggest.

Thanks

Hi @DG1811 , if unique id is not coming in response you will not be able to map it at the time of account creation.

"accountIdPath": "accountName" use this.

Hi @NM ,
We have also tried with the accountName too, it did not work. 

So if we are getting the unique ID in the response how can we get the data for the manually provisioned user?

Hi @rushikeshvartak ,

The Get Url for users is already present in the import account json that o attached in the ticket. Its a combination of two API, CALL1 pulls the users and second API pull the attributes. 

thanks 

Your API is not returning account ID hence  use below 

"accountIdPath": "accountName" use this.

Hi @rushikeshvartak ,

So you want me try the below format?

{
"accountIdPath": "accountName",
"call": [
{
"connection": "acctAuth",
"name": "call1",
"url": "http://xxxxx/names.nsf/api/data/xxxxxxxx",
"httpMethod": "POST",
"httpHeaders": {
"Authorization": "${access_token}",
"ContentType": "application/json"
},
"httpContentType": "application/json",
"httpParams": "{\"ShortName\": \"${user.username}\",\"FirstName\": \"${user.firstname}\",\"LastName\": \"${user.lastname}\",\"InternetAddress\": \"${user.email}\",\"MailAddress\": \"${user.email}\",\"password\": \"${password}\",\"form\": \"Person\",\"MailSystem\": \"1\"}",
"successResponses": {
"statusCode": [
200,
201,
204
]
},
"unsuccessResponses": {
"statusCode": [
400,
401,
403,
404,
405,
500
]
}
}
]
}

If yes, then we have already tried this. It did not work. 

Could you kindly provide a detailed snapshot of the information extracted from the logs, encompassing errors and other pertinent functionality details encountered during the execution of this process? Your assistance in furnishing this information would greatly aid in the analysis and resolution of any issues .

Hi @rushikeshvartak ,

We have ran a create account task for a user and ran the provisioning job.

The user (edited for confidentiality) : testuser, email as testuser name@.

After that we ran a import account job (full), it did not pull the user.

 

  • Does account creation working from postman ?

Hi @rushikeshvartak / @NM ,

Just an update, as you see, we have two calls in importaccountjson.
Call1 pulls the collection of user and call2 pulls the user based on the accountid field retrieved in call1.

Now in create accountjson we are creating the user in call2 API. 
I suppose there lyes the problem, as its unable to find the user in call1 so, it is not pulling the data.

Can you please suggest a createjson format using two calls. which can serve the process.

 

Try creating accounts from postman
