Examples

User Operations (JavaScript):

This example demonstrates how to find and delete users, roles and tenants.

The example uses API authentication driven from JavaScript. See Authentication APIs for alternatives.

// URL of the Pyramid installation and the path to the API 2.0 REST methods
var pyramidURL = "http://mysite.com/api2/";

// step 1: authenticate admin account and get token
// NOTE: callApi method is a generic REST method shown below.
let token = callApi("auth/authenticateUser",{
	"data":{
		"userName":"adminUser1",
		"password":"abc123!"
	}
},false);
log("got token "+token);

//########## user ################

//step 2: searching for a user by it's name
let findUser= callApi("access/getUsersByName",{
	"userName": "john",
	"auth": token // admin token generated above
});
				
// get user ID				
let userId=findUser.data[0].id;
				
log("found user with id= "+ userId);

//step 3: deleting the role
let deleteUser=callApi("access/deleteUser",{
	"userId": userId, //from step 2
	"auth": token // admin token generated above
});


//########## role ################

//step 4: searching for a role by it's name
let findRole= callApi("access/getRolesByName",{
	"data": {
		"searchValue": "test role",
		"searchMatchType": 2// search flag enumerations. 2 = SearchMatchType.Equals
	},
	"auth": token // admin token generated above
});
// get role ID	
let roleId=findRole.data[0].roleId;
				
log("found role with id= "+ roleId);

//step 5: deleting the role
let deleteRole=callApi("access/deleteRole",{
	"roleId": roleId, // from step 4
	"auth": token
});


//########## tenant ################

//step 6: search for tenant
let findTenenat=callApi("access/getTenantByName",{
	"tenantName": "Test Tenant 1",
	"auth": token
});
// get tenant ID					
let tenantId=findTenenat.data.id;
				
log("found tenant by name "+ tenantId);

//step 7: delete the tenant we found in step 2
let deleteTenants=callApi("access/deleteTenants",{
	"data": {
	"tenantIds": [
		tenantId
	], // use the array method, because it can accept multiple ID's
	"deleteUsers": true, //delete all tenant users
	"deleteServers": true //delete all data source servers associated with tenant
	},
	"auth": token
});

Content and Tag Operations (JavaScript):

This example demonstrates how to find item's and the manipulation of content tags.

The example uses API authentication driven from JavaScript. See Authentication APIs for alternatives.

// URL of the Pyramid installation and the path to the API 2.0 REST methods
var pyramidURL = "http://mysite.com/api2/";


// step 1: authenticate admin account and get token
// NOTE: callApi method is a generic REST method shown below.
let token = callApi("auth/authenticateUser",{
	"data":{
		"userName":"adminUser",
		"password":"abc123!"
	}
},false);


//step 2: search for tenant by name
let tenant=callApi("access/getTenantByName",{
	"tenantName": "Company X",
	"auth": token
});

let tenantId;

//step 3: if tenant is found, get its ID. Otherwise create the tenant
if(tenant.data != undefined){

    tenantId=tenant.data.id;
    log("found tenant with id "+ tenantId);
	
}else{

    log("tenant was not found ,creating one");
    let createTenantResult = callApi("access/createTenant",{
      "tenant": {
        "name": "Company X",
        "viewerSeats": 1,
        "proSeats": 1
      },
      "auth": token
    });
    tenantId = createTenantResult.data.modifiedList[0].id;
	
}


//step 4: delete the tenant we found in step 2
let deleteTenants=callApi("access/deleteTenants",{
	"data": {
	"tenantIds": [
		tenantId
	],
	"deleteUsers": true,
	"deleteServers": true
	},
	"auth": token
});

//step 5: get the default tenant
let defaultTenant = callApi("access/getDefaultTenant",{
  "auth": token
});

let defaultTenantId = defaultTenant.data;


//step 6: get available licenses by type for default tenant
let proSeatsNumber = callApi("access/getAvailableTenantLicenseCount",{
  "tenantLicenseTypeData": {
    "tenantId": defaultTenantId,
    "licenseType": 200,
  },
  "auth": token
});
log("The default tenant has "+ proSeatsNumber.data + " available pro seats licenses");

//step 7: get available users for tenant by license type
let proSeatsUsersData = callApi("access/getAllUsersDataByTenantAndLicenceType",{
  "tenantUsersGetObject": {
    "tenantId": defaultTenantId,
    "clientLicenseType": 200,
  },
