  The Workfront API provides endpoints to interact with user-related resources, allowing you to manage users within the Workfront platform. Here are the main API URLs for working with users:

  1. **Retrieve Users**:
  - Endpoint: `/user`
  - Method: GET
  - Description: Retrieve information about users.
  - Example:
  ```
  GET https://yourdomain.attask-ondemand.com/attask/api/v9.0/user
  ```

  2. **Retrieve Specific User**:
  - Endpoint: `/user/{user_id}`
  - Method: GET
  - Description: Retrieve information about a specific user by their ID.
  - Example:
  ```
  GET https://yourdomain.attask-ondemand.com/attask/api/v9.0/user/{user_id}
  ```

  3. **Create User**:
  - Endpoint: `/user`
  - Method: POST
  - Description: Create a new user.
  - Example:
  ```
  POST https://yourdomain.attask-ondemand.com/attask/api/v9.0/user
  Content-Type: application/json

  {
  "firstName": "John",
  "lastName": "Doe",
  "username": "johndoe",
  // Other required fields
  }
  ```

  4. **Update User**:
  - Endpoint: `/user/{user_id}`

  {
  "firstName": "Updated First Name",
  // Other fields to update
  }
  ```

  5. **Delete User**:
  - Endpoint: `/user/{user_id}`
  - Method: DELETE
  - Description: Delete a user.

  6. **Search Users**:
  - Endpoint: `/search`
  - Method: POST
  - Description: Search for users using Workfront Query Language (WQL).
  - Example:
  ```
  POST https://yourdomain.attask-ondemand.com/attask/api/v9.0/search
  Content-Type: application/json

  {
  "from": "USER",
  "select": ["ID", "firstName", "lastName"],
  "where": {
  "isActive": true
  }
  }
  ```

  These are the main API URLs for working with users in the Workfront API. Make sure to replace `yourdomain` with your actual Workfront domain and `{user_id}` with the ID of the specific user you are working with. Additionally, ensure you have the necessary permissions to perform CRUD operations on users within your Workfront organization.

Hi @rushikeshvartak ,

Thanks for your response, I was going through the workfront documentation and saw this.

have you used any method mentioned above in the image?

[rushikeshvartak]

You can use Oauth2

[NM]

Hi @rushikeshvartak , Main problem is Oauth2 uses Authorization code flow and not directly getting the access token from processing of request.

2) for machine to machine they recommend JWT flow, with use of public/private key not sure whether in saviynt we can use that

[rushikeshvartak]

JWT is also supported refer developers handbook
