NETIQ IDM - Boost strap your start with identity application REST API



Boost strap your start with identity application REST API:


If you want to play out with NetIQ rest API within identity application (IDMProv), you can see a few examples here:

these are the rest API protected by Oauth2 Authorization (resource owner password credentials grant):


The first step is to obtain token: ( you must have enabled client "rbpm" in the OSPF for the resource owner password credential grant) flow:

An example is taken in c#: (postman)

Get an access token:

 var client = new RestClient("https://<your host>/osp/a/idm/auth/oauth2/grant");  
 client.Timeout = -1;  
 var request = new RestRequest(Method.POST);  
 request.AddHeader("Content-Type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded");  
 request.AddHeader("Authorization", "Basic Basic bas64 encoded string clientid<rbpm>:clientsecret>");  
 request.AddHeader("Content-Type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded");  
 request.AddParameter("grant_type", "password");  
 request.AddParameter("client_id", "rbpm");  
 request.AddParameter("username", "ldap DN of authorizied user");  
 request.AddParameter("password", "ldap password for authorized user");  
 request.AddParameter("client_secret", "password of clientid(rbpm)");  
 IRestResponse response = client.Execute(request);  
 Console.WriteLine(response.Content);  

once you acquired access_token;


Use it as a bearer token to test it with getting driver list API

https://<your host>/IDMProv/rest/admin/driver

 var client = new RestClient("https://<host>/IDMProv/rest/admin/driver");  
 var request = new RestRequest(Method.GET);  
 request.AddHeader("Content-Type", "application/json");  
 request.AddHeader("Authorization", "bearer <acess_token>");  
 IRestResponse response = client.Execute(request);  
 Console.WriteLine(response.Content);  

How to get a new access token from refresh token?

 var client = new RestClient("https://<your host>/osp/a/idm/auth/oauth2/grant");  
 client.Timeout = -1;  
 var request = new RestRequest(Method.POST);  
 request.AddHeader("Content-Type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded");  
 request.AddHeader("Authorization", "Basic bas64 encoded string clientid:clientsecret");  
 request.AddHeader("Content-Type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded");  
 request.AddParameter("grant_type", "refresh_token");  
 request.AddParameter("client_id", "rbpm");  
 request.AddParameter("client_secret", "secret of rbpm clientid");  
 request.AddParameter("refresh_token", "<refresh_token>");  
 IRestResponse response = client.Execute(request);  
 Console.WriteLine(response.Content);
