Layer7 API Management

  • 1.  User creation on API Portal

    Posted Sep 05, 2017 05:45 AM

    Hi,

    We have a requirement to add 200+ developers to API Portal. Either the users use the signup page to raise the registration request or we can create the users from CMS (with admin credentials). 

     

    Do we have any option to create these users by uploading an XLS (with all the mandatory field values  required for user creation)? Any other way to create the users in one-go?

     

    Regards.

    The classic version of the API Portal (v3.5 and older) does not have a supported programmatic way to bulk add users. However, one option would be to integrate the API Portal with an LDAP for authentication, which would allow you to bulk add users via your LDAP. Here is more information on that:
    Integrate LDAP Servers with the API Portal - CA API Developer Portal 3.5 - CA Technologies Documentation 

     

    The SaaS API Portal, and the newer API Portal v4.0+ have management APIs (called the Portal API or PAPI), which have APIs to programmatically add users. More information on that can be found here:
    Portal API - CA API Developer Portal - 4.1 - CA Technologies Documentation
