  • 1.  Retrieve user list from VIP

    Posted Mar 26, 2015 10:54 PM

    Hi

     

    I notice the user service only allow query a single user info.  Is that any web service api I can use to retrieve back list of users?

     

    p/s: I tried to place "*", "%" and "" for user id field and invoke getUserInfo, they don't work

     

    Thanks

    Hey SJ,

     

    The APIs don't have a user list feature.  This is available manually by inspecting VIP Manager, automatically by managing a user store like LDAP in conjuction with VIP Enterprise Gateway running LDAP sync, or automatically by proprietary code that is written against the identity store on your front-end.  VIP APIs don't manage a store of users, but instead handle all aspects of a single user and any associated credentials and attendant processes.

     

    This table may help visualize the Symantec VIP User Service API:

    Symantec VIP User Services - API Summary
    Managing Querying Authenticating
    createUser() getServerTime() authenticateUser()
    deleteUser() getUserInfo() authenticateUserWithPush()
    updateUser() getCredentialInfo() authenticateCredentials()
    addCredential() getTemporaryPasswordAttributes() checkOTP()
    removeCredential() pollPushStatus() evaluateRisk()
    updateCredential()   confirmRisk()
    clearUserPin()   denyRisk()

     

    I hope this helps!
