[midPoint] Importing objects remotely

[Katka Valalikova]

Hi Samu, 




there is also possibility to create objects without accessing midPoint GUI using REST API. For example, if you want to import resource definition, you can use following curl command: 
curl --user administrator:5ecr3t -H "Content-Type: application/xml" -X POST http://localhost:8080/midpoint/ws/rest/resources -d @ pathToYourXmls\resource.xml -v 

for other types of objects, you will need to update url with the appropriate type, e.g: 


    * create connector host: http://localhost:8080/midpoint/ws/rest/connectorHosts 
    * create object template: http://localhost:8080/midpoint/ws/rest/objectTemplates 

More documentation for REST API can be found in wiki . 

Best regards, 
Katarina Valalikova

Thank you for your quick response Pavol. I will use the executeChanges method for now.

Samu, 

you're right: the model WS interface doesn't contain such a method. (I consider implementing it, but it's a low priority for me, mainly because of 3.3 release that is quickly coming.) 

In the meanwhile, you can safely use executeChanges method. But you need to call it one-object-at-a-time. And perhaps don't forget to set "overwrite" option. Also, set "isImport" option, if you want to evaluate search filters in the imported objects. 

Best regards, 
Pavol

Hello, 

I want to import certain objects (Connector hosts, resource references, user templates, etc.) without accessing the midPoint GUI. Is it possible to import objects through the Model WS Interface, or do I have to write a program with the Model interface to import such objects? I did not find any references or guides on how to import objects like this into midPoint. 

Best Regards 
Samu Viitanen
