Programaticaly creating users in RTC

Hi,
You could use repotools. That allows you to import and export users.
You could switch to LDAP, that way the synchronization would create the users. I think I have heared about a default setting for the license that is assigned to users synced in.

Hi,
We would like to be able to add users to our RTC server without using a Web UI or Eclipse Client.
Is it possible to script it?
Thank you

Hi,
maybe the Jazz users API can be useful to you.
Apparently, it allows for the creation of user resources, in a programmatic way.
You can check it here: https://jazz.net/wiki/bin/view/Main/JFSUsersAPI2

I could not access the API documentation using the following link -
https://jazz.net/wiki/bin/view/Main/JFSUsersAPI2
It says I don't have the required permission to view these APIs. Are these APIs open for adopters to use or are they private to the development team?
Thanks Ralph, this will simplify a lot of things as our global team has 400 people. Do you know the command how to do it or point to some docs.
So we have a mapping in WAS JazzUsers->Our global group name in bluepages.

Thanks Nicolas,
I think this will help us too as we can get our LDAP group members programmatically and then add them one by one using this APIs. Unless the repotools has already implement this synchronization.

Hi,
LDAP - please have alook into the library on Jazz.net and also search here. There is a bunch of documentation on jazz.net. Also the TeamWiki contains documentation about it. Currently I don't have time to look it up for you.
The repotools command is (add .sh or .bat as per your OS) repotools -importUsers and repotools -exportUsers. To get the syntax, open a shell in your server directory for instande /opt/IBM/JazzTeamServer/server
run repotools.sh or repotools.bat. That dumps the parameter details.

I should mention that LDAP sync work with blue groups. I think you can also define a defult license mapping.
Repotools uses an CSV file to export/import. I'd look at an export to see the format.
API: you might want to ask in the Extending Team Concert forum if you need more info.

Hi Ralph,
Thanks for your reply. I have ran the following command and got an error. I guess either it is a bug or I am doing something wrong here.

Hi,
the -syncUsers is for LDAP and requires it to be set up correctly.
So before playing with the commandine I'd suggest to go into the server admin pages and check if the LDAP is set up at all. You also need to make sure that is configured correctly in the app server.
Please go to the Library http://jazz.net/library/ and just search that as well as the Team Concert help how to set up LDAP.
It is not trivial and if you hadn't set it up yet it is a considerable amount of work. I'd suggest to try out with a test system first.
