REST - Issue with RemoveAccessJson

[piyushm]

Hello,

For removing group for a user , I need to call update API and pass the existing members of the group after removing the user from the list. I am making 2 calls, 1st to get the group details and 2nd to update the group. Now, even though I am using responseList.remove(account.accountID) in the 2nd call, I can see in the webservice call the accountId is not getting removed from the responselist.

I tried hardcoding responseList.remove('511') but still the account id is part of the final call.

From the logs:

Calling Webservice Url - https://*****/api/v1/scim/Groups/103 with httpParams - [schemas:[urn:ietf:params:scim:schemas:core:2.0:Group], members:[[value:504], [value:511]]]

}

Please let me know if there is any issue with the 2nd call.

@rushikeshvartak - I followed the same example given by @shivmano. But my use case is to remove the account from the group instead of removing entitlement value. Now, the account ID is a number and it seems the "remove" method takes the input as index rather than the value if given directly. So, responseList.remove(accountID) transaltes to .remove(511), which i believe is not found because there is no index with value as 511.

So somehow I need to convert it to index. I tried as -- int pos=indexof(511) ; responseList.remove(pos). This works perfectly with static values. But then when i use variables --> int pos= indexof(account.accountID); remove(pos) then I get unexpected token $. 

Somehow I need to get index of accountID and then use that inside the remove method. Let me know if you see any way to do this.

Hi @piyushm 

Please refer to the REST Connector's developer handbook. There is step by step instructions on how to construct RemoveAccessJSON. Please validate in postman first before constructing the JSON.
