Hi Mani Vellingiri,
AFAIK there is no reason why debian packages installation should not
work with the same configuration as the standalone. I think that
connectors location is not involved in your problem.

Hi Andrea,
Thanks a lot for your response.
We are able to do bulk user creation via CSV connector in standalone
Syncope distribution.
As we cannot proceed with standalone version for deployment
evaluation, now we are trying to replicate the configuration of CSV
connector from standalone syncope to debian version and then check it
works or not.
_When creating CSV connector:_
In syncope standalone, Location is:
connid://testconnectorserver@localhost:4554
In debian syncope, Location is: file:/var/lib/apache-syncope/bundles/
***Location field in both standalone and debian version is read-only
So can I assume csv connector server is not required in debian
environment ?
Can we use any absolute path like ‘/opt/csv-files’ for the ‘Source
path*’ field during csv connector creation?
ConnID locations specify how to look for connector bundles (the jars).
Please refer to [1], maybe that paragraph will clarify what I'm saying.
You can add whatever path to scan.

Vellingiri

Hi Mani Vellingiri,
You could start from a working example to see a complete (and working)
configuration of CSV connector.
You could run the standalone Syncope distribution and see how it
works, please refer to [1] for Syncope <= 1.2 and to [2] for later
versions.
After running the tomcat, you'll find the console at
http://localhost:9080/syncope-console/
<http://localhost:9080/syncope-console/>
You might also check logs to have hints about what's happening during
tasks. To configure log levels please refer to [3] for Syncope <= 1.2
and [4] for later versions
You will find logs for the standalone distribution into the log
directory of the Apache Tomcat (core-*.log are very useful).
HTH,
Andrea

Hi Francesco,
Thanks for your suggestion.
I tried the below steps to create users from .csv file.
I could see pull tasks “execution status” are SUCCESS but I don’t
find users are getting created in syncope. If any configuration is
missed, please let me know.
1.Verified csvdir bundle exists in /var/lib/apache-syncope/bundles/
2.Created “/opt/csv-files/test.csv”
_cat test.csv_
username,testcolumn
usr1,test
3.From admin console, created csvdir connector instance with below
values
Display name=csv-conn
Location=/var/lib/apache-syncope/bundles
Bundle=net.tirasa.connid.bundles.csvdir
Source path=/opt/csv-files [override selected]
File mask=*.csv [override selected]
Key column name=username
Column names=testcolumn [override selected]
Capabilities=CREATE
*** other values are default
4.Created csv resource with below values
Key=csv-resource
Connector=csv-conn
Source path=/opt/csv-files [override selected]
File mask=*.csv [override selected]
Column names=testcolumn [override selected]
*** other values are default
5.Created pull task
Name=pulltest
Destination Realm=/
Pull mode=FULL_RECONCILIATION
Schedule=Every 5 minutes
*** other values are default
Regards,
Vellingiri

Actually, we have user information in text/excel file.
Creating users manually is a difficult job. We don’t have
external connector.
You might want to consider the CSVDir connector:
https://connid.atlassian.net/wiki/display/BASE/CSV+Directory
You will need to play around a bit with its configuration, but it
should work.

Hi Francesco,
I have a use case where I need to add thousands or more users
in a single request. i.e. bulk user creation.
Is it possible in Syncope ?
Bulk actions are available for the operations defined at [1] (see
some samples at [2] under the "Delete several users at once"
example) - which does not include create.
Instead of bulk creating thousand users via REST, I would rather
suggest to rely on some external connector: which is the source
for these users? Can't they be pulled from DB / LDAP / ...?
Regards.

Thanks Francesco!!
After adding username, it works.
Glad it helped :-)

Hi,
Currently, I am evaluating syncope for our usage. I would need
to do bulk user creation from REST. I started to create single
user from REST client and it fails.
From postman, I tried to create a user with below inputs. I
get '400 Bad Request'.
If there is anything wrong in the request, please correct me.
Is all fields mandatory during user creation.
POST - http://135.249.22.223:8080/syncope/rest/users
Authorization:
Basic Auth - admin/password
Headers:
Content-type: application/json
Body:
{
"@class": "org.apache.syncope.common.lib.to.UserTO",
"creator": "admin",
"lastModifier": "admin",
"key": "rest1",
"type": "USER",
"realm": "/",
"status": "Active",
"auxClasses": [],
"plainAttrs": [],
"derAttrs": [],
"virAttrs": [],
"resources": []
}
Hi,
you should remove (not troublesome, just ignored):
* creator
* lastModifier
* key
* status
About what is mandatory, I can see there is no username.
Moreover, it depends on how you can your schemas and classes
configured.
Please also take a look at logs to figure out what might go wrong.
Regards.
