FormData Information updation with OIM APIs

Hey Guys,
I try to use the OIM APIs to update a custom field that is present on a formdata.
e.e: in the web base ui, you search for a user, go to resource profile, and then I have my OID provisioned resource, when I click on view, I have the a formdata that popups with fields taht I want to update.
I've done the following until now:
- search the user with the findUsersFiltered API to retreive the User.key
- search the object associated to the user by using getObjects with the User.Key retreived
This search return a list of objects AND I can identify my provisioned Object:
The informations that seems usefull are:
* Users-Object Instance For User.Key-value
* Object Instance.Key-value
* Objects.Key-value
* Process Definition.Process Form Key-value
I'm block there, I'm not sure the different options for:
- reading the form data field for this resource
- updating some form data for this resource
Any help would be great !

I've done it,
For information it was with using Process Definition.Process Form Key-value

Create Access Policy with OIM API: can't fill child form

Hi!
I'm having a problem with creating OIM Access Policy with API. I'm doing the following:
1. Create a new access policy via AccessPolicyIntf
2. Add a resource object which will be provisioned to all users who are within policy scope
3. Get Resource Object (Parent) Form Definition via FormDefinitionIntf
4. Add data to parent form (AccessPolicyIntf setFormData(FormDefinitionKey))
5. Now I want to add data to the child form, for that purpose I need to know child form definition key, but I can' get one, because there's no method like 'getChildFormDefinitionKey' in FormDefinitionIntf interface.
Please, help me to get child form definition key, knowing parent form definition key and version

Create approval request for Delete User operati with oim api -11g Release2

Hi,
How I can create an approval request for a User Delete operation usin API? Can anyone quide me? Any help is strongly appreciated..
BR,
Aliye

You can use the exact same technique for any of the other requests submissions through APIs that have been posted on this message forum. Just supply the template name for your request template you plan to use.
Here is a page of sample code for requests. http://java.net/projects/openptk/sources/svn/show/branches/Oracle/OIM11g/examples/java/OIMClient/src/oim/client/request?rev=1402

Getting started with OIM API'S using ECLIPSE

Dear All,
i got this error messages :
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/log4j/Logger
     at com.thortech.util.logging.Logger.createAndRegisterLogger(Unknown Source)
     at com.thortech.util.logging.Logger.getLogger(Unknown Source)
     at com.thortech.xl.util.config.ConfigurationFormatter.<clinit>(Unknown Source)
somebody help me.
Thanks.

In general Add all the jar files present in the xlclient lib folder into your classpath before using any of the Thor API's as these jars are needed.
In your case i guess the classpath is missing the log4j jar file required.
You are using com.thortech.util.logging.Logger which references to xlLogger.jar.
When you decompile this xlLogger.jar present in the lib folder you will be able to see the following import statements.
import com.thortech.util.logging.helpers.ConfigFileWatchDog;
import com.thortech.xl.util.logging.FilePrintStream;
import com.thortech.xl.util.logging.PropertyConfigurator;
import java.io.File;
import java.io.FileOutputStream;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.ObjectInputStream;
import java.io.Serializable;
import java.util.Hashtable;
import org.apache.log4j.Category;
import org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender;
import org.apache.log4j.Level;
import org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout;
So during runtime it is searching for the log4j jar which is not present in the classpath. usually it is present in the xlclient ext folder. Please ensure that you add this jar into your classpath. The problem will be solved. Let me know if you still face any issue.

Call OIM APIs

Hello,
I am writing a java program to call the OIM APIs to reset a user's password and set up security questions.
First in my java program I need to make a connection to OIM URL. Example of my URL is: http://lenovo-d0446ff6.:7778/xlWebApp/
What API in OIM may I use to establish the connection or is there another way to connect to OIM via some java code.
Thanks

OIM API portablity issue with OIM 9.1 / Weblogic 10.3

Hi , We have a existing piece of code which does some User Mutation through OIM API.
[I am not well versed with OIM ]
The code was running fine with Weblogic 8.3 and previous OIM version.
Here is the piece of code.
logger.info("Initializing OIM Params from config location:" oimConfigFileUtil.getOIMConfigBase());+*
+          System.setProperty("XL.HomeDir", oimConfigFileUtil.getOIMConfigBase().getAbsolutePath());+
+          System.setProperty("java.security.auth.login.config", oimConfigFileUtil.getOIMAuthWLFile().getAbsolutePath());+
+          ConfigurationClient.ComplexSetting configClient = ConfigurationClient.getComplexSettingByPath("Discovery.CoreServer");+
+          env = configClient.getAllSettings();+
*+          try {+*
+               oimAccessFactory = new tcUtilityFactory(env, oimConfigFileUtil.getUserID(), oimConfigFileUtil.getPassword());+
I traced all the dependecy's for this piece of code.
If I run this with Weblogic.jar[8.1] it gives me
java.io.InvalidClassException: com.thortech.xl.dataaccess.tcDataSet; local class incompatible: stream classdesc serialVersionUID = -5446056666465114187, local class serialVersionUID = -8857647322544023100*
With the compatablity issue I substituted with weblogic.jar:10.3 , now its giving me all classpath issues.
Can someone layout the exact jars that are required for this to work?
Thanks
Vignesh

Installl a Design Console. Copy any files that are required. Then take the class paths that are listed in the classpath and basecp files and put those into your application classpath files.

SOAP API integration problem with OIM 11g R1

Hi,
We're facing a problem when we are attempting to provision for a third party Web Service application in OIM 11g R1.
During development and test running in an IDE environment, JDeveloper, the soap wsdl requests are triggered and a response is received successfully. However, when we shift the work and integrate it with OIM using design console, there seems to be an error indicating an invalid wsdl location. We have used the super class Exception, in try-catch block for handling of the exceptions. Please see the log message.

Hi Kevin,
Thanks a lot for the response. But, when i deployed the composite SAR in to the server from Jdeveloper, i checked the option to "Overwrite any existing composite with same revision ID". SO, i used the same revision ID (Say 1.0), will this also need to be disabled?
Thanks,

How to create a Connection to UDB Database through OIM APIs.?

Hi,
In our OIM (9.1.0.2) implementation, there is a need to connect to a UDB database to execute some select queries and get the data. Is there any way in which I can do this?
I tried creating an ITResource to have all static database related information, but I was not able to use that ITResource and create an actual database connection in the java code.
As far as possible, I don't want to use any JDBC code to create the connection but want to know if there are any inbuilt OIM APIs which can help me in creating a database connection to point to the UDB database.
(We don't have the DBUM connector deployed.)
Please get back with your views/info on this.
Thanks,
Kulesh...

Here is a constructor code for connecting to a database:
     public DatabaseConnection(String hostname, String port, String driver, String sid, String admin, String password) throws ClassNotFoundException, SQLException{
          log.info(CLASS_NAME + " -----> inputs=hostname[" + hostname +
                    "]port[" + port +
                    "]driver[" + driver +
                    "]sid[" + sid +
                    "]admin[" + admin +
                    "]password[********]");
          Properties connectionProps=new Properties();
     connectionProps.setProperty("user", admin);
     connectionProps.setProperty("password", password);
     String url = "jdbc:oracle:thin:@(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcp)(HOST=" + hostname +
          ")(PORT=" + port +
          "))(CONNECT_DATA=(SID=" + sid + ")))";
     Class.forName(driver);
          con = null;
     con = DriverManager.getConnection(url, connectionProps);
If you want to use SSL, you will want to configure tcps for jdbc connection to the database, or any other form of connection and update your URL string for it.

How do we create a self registration request , using OIM API , with and without challenge questions?

Well try this piece of code. This might be similar to yours but it worked perfectly for me. For you the error might be the attribute names which you are passing, it should be the one dfined in the FormMetaData xml as below.
     import Thor.API.tcUtilityFactory;
     // define you class below
     ConfigurationClient.ComplexSetting config = ConfigurationClient.getComplexSettingByPath("Discovery.CoreServer");
     final Hashtable env = config.getAllSettings();
     Hashtable quesAns = new Hashtable();
     HashMap user = new HashMap();
     user.put("Users.User ID", "SelfTesting");
     user.put("Users.First Name", "SelfTesting");
     user.put("Users.Last Name", "SelfTesting");
     user.put("Users.Email", "[email protected]");
     user.put("Users.Password", "SelfTesting");
     user.put("ConfirmPassword", "SelfTesting");
     tcUtilityFactory.createRegistrationRequest(env, user, quesAns);
And for the query of challenge QnA, these are the following combinations possible:
1) Property Does user have to provide challenge information during registration set to TRUE
- During self-registration from web console, it will show you Challenge Questions section on the right. If you do not select any questions, it will thow you an error there itself.
- Doing it from API will create no difference(even if you pass a blank HashTable). The request will be created successfully and on completion when the user tries to login, it will ask for Security QnA.
2) Property Does user have to provide challenge information during registration set to FALSE
- During self-registration from web console, it doesn't show you Challenge Questions section on the right. The request will be created successfully and on completion when the user tries to login, it will ask for Security QnA.
- Doing it from API, you will have to pass a blank HashTable as in above code. The request will be created successfully and on completion when the user tries to login, it will ask for Security QnA.
Hope it works.
Thanks
Sunny

Request Approval using OIM API

Hi all
Which API I need to use to approve a resouce request using OIM API?
I have tried with the following:
tcReqOp.setRequestResponse(85, 1 , "java.lang.String psResponse");
i do not know what to pass in place of java.lang.String psResponse.
I aslo tried passing "C","Completed"
can anyone correct what I am doing?
Thank u
sas

I assume you want to run a scheduled task for this. Try this approach. Run this query to retrieve specific approval tasks that are in a pending state:
select oti.sch_key, mil.mil_name, to_char(oti.oti_update, 'dd-mon-yyyy hh24:mi:ss')
from oti, mil, obj, pkg, orc, sch
where oti.mil_key=mil.mil_key
and oti.pkg_key=pkg.pkg_key
and pkg.obj_key=obj.obj_key
and oti.orc_key=orc.orc_key
and oti.sch_key=sch.sch_key
and oti.sch_status='P'
and obj.obj_name='Test Object'
and pkg.pkg_type='Approval'
You can modify the obj.obj_name or remove, or do any changes you want. When you grab the time of the oti.oti_update, compare it against the sysdate to determine the time difference. If the update did not occur within that time, use this code:
provIntf = (tcProvisioningOperationsIntf)getUtilityOps("Thor.API.Operations.tcProvisioningOperationsIntf");
Hashtable taskHash = new Hashtable();
taskHash.put("Process Instance.Task Details.Data", "<Insert Response Value Here>");
provIntf.updateTask(key, taskHash) ; //---> Key is the same as the oti.sch_key field
I have not tried this, but give it a shot.

The notifications aren't update using the API of universal work list

Thank you very much for your quick answer...
But I think that you don't understand me. We can read notifications number but not in real time because they are not updated until we go to the UWL and we force there an update. We want to show in real time the number of notifications that a user has.
Does anybody how to update/refresh this using the API?
Thanks for your suggestions
