    User API

    The User API allows you to create, update, and remove user accounts. This API should only be called to manage users in the native security realm. Users from other security realms are managed directly by Fusion’s auth proxy.

    Create, Update, Delete or List Users

    The path for this request is:

    /api/users/<id>

    where <id> is the user ID.

    In order to see this object within the Fusion UI, it must be associated with an app. To do this, create the object using the /apps endpoint.

    A GET request lists information about the user. The ID can be omitted in a GET request to get all users.

    A POST request creates a new user, while a PUT updates a user record.

    DELETE will remove the user.

    Required

    password
    Required

    The user’s password. Required when creating a new user. The user’s password is not returned in the output of any request.

    passwordConfirm

    When creating a user or updating a user’s password, you must confirm the defined password.

    realmName
    Required

    The realm the user belongs to, which defines how they authenticate against the system.
