HTTP request

Note

This API will be retired soon. Use the Post assignmentRequests API instead.

POST /identityGovernance/entitlementManagement/accessPackageAssignmentRequests

Request headers

Name	Description
Authorization	Bearer {token}. Required. Learn more about authentication and authorization.
Content-Type	application/json. Required.

Request body

In the request body, supply a JSON representation of accessPackageAssignmentRequest object.

For an administrator to request to create an assignment for a user, the value of the requestType property is AdminAdd, and the accessPackageAssignment property contains the targetId of the user being assigned, the assignmentPolicyId property identifying the accessPackageAssignmentPolicy, and the accessPackageId property identifying the accessPackage.

For an administrator to request to remove an assignment, the value of the requestType property is AdminRemove, and the accessPackageAssignment property contains the id property identifying the accessPackageAssignment being removed.

For a non-administrator user to request to create their own assignment for either a first assignment or renew assignment, the value of the requestType property is UserAdd. The accessPackageAssignment property contains the targetId with the id of the users. The assignmentPolicyId property identifies the accessPackageAssignmentPolicy. The accessPackageId property identifies the accessPackage. The user making the request must already exist in the directory.

For a non-administrator user to request to extend their own assignments, the value of the requestType property is UserExtend. The accessPackageAssignment property contains the targetId with the id of the users. The assignmentPolicyId property identifies the accessPackageAssignmentPolicy. The accessPackageId property identifies the accessPackage. The user making the request must already exist in the directory.

Response

If successful, this method returns a 200-series response code and a new accessPackageAssignmentRequest object in the response body.

If this is an AdminAdd request, then subsequently an accessPackageAssignment and, if needed, an accessPackageSubject are also created. You can locate those using the query parameters when listing accessPackageAssignments.

Examples

Example 1: Admin requests a direct assignment for a user already in the directory

Request

The following example shows a request for a direct assignment, in which the administrator requests the creation of an assignment for a user. Because the accessPackageSubject might not yet exist, the value of the targetID is the object ID of the user being assigned, the value of the accessPackageId is the desired access package for that user, and the value of assignmentPolicyId is a direct assignment policy in that access package.
