Update User Mapping ID api

Question

Hi,
Does anyone know if there is an api to update user mapping ids for users in EP6.0 Portal Database.
I know it can be done in the standard User Import with the inclusion of $usermapping$ but wanted to know of there is a way to do it in a bespoke program to help automate the addition of portal users who will require access to the connected R/3 system (of which there will be many).
Thanks for any help you can offer,
Steve.

Hi Steve
Try the following code.
IPortalComponentRequest req = (IPortalComponentRequest) this.getRequest();
IUserMappingService iumser = (IUserMappingService) PortalRuntime.getRuntimeResources().getService(IUserMappingService.KEY);
IUserMappingData iumdata = iumser.getMappingData("System Alias", req.getUser());
Map map = new HashMap();
try {
    iumdata.enrich(map);
} catch (Exception e) {}
String userid = (String)map.get ("user");
String password = (String)map.get ("mappedpassword");
The following code stores usermapping info.
IPortalComponentRequest req = (IPortalComponentRequest) this.getRequest();
IUserMappingService umapser = (IUserMappingService)
PortalRuntime.getRuntimeResources().getService(IUserMappingService.KEY);
IUser userid = req.getUser();
IUserMappingData iumdata = umapser.getMappingData ("System Alias", userid);
Map map = new HashMap ();
try {
     map.put("user","userid");
         map.put("mappedpassword","password");
        iumdata.storeLogonData(map);
} catch (Exception e) {response.write(e.getMessage());}
Hope this helps.
