Managing Users

Creating a new user in AuthMinder is a one-time operation, performed only when a new user is to be added to AuthMinder database.

In previous releases, the Issuance Java API provided a programmable interface, which could be used by Java clients (such as Java Servlets and JSP pages) to send user management requests to AuthMinder Server. In release 7.0, the user management interfaces and methods have been deprecated from the Issuance API (Issuance). Now, you must use the User Management Web service (ArcotUserRegistrySvc) for the purpose. This Web service creates a request message that is sent to the AuthMinder Server, receives the response, and packages it as return response to be read by your application.

Book: Refer to the section, "Performing User Operations" in Chapter 6, "Managing Users and Accounts" in the CA AuthMinder Web Services Developer’s Guide for more information on how to use the User Management Web service for creating and managing users in AuthMinder. This chapter provides an overview of how to use the Web service to create users in AuthMinder database and operations it provides.
