Create user via REST

[Aritz Galdos, geändert vor 12 Jahren.]

Hi guys:

I am implementing a kind of interface for Liferay and Android communication via REST. By now, I am able to get data from Lferay server via REST. But, does anyone know whether it is possible to create, i.e. users via REST? Can I invoke addUser method?

Regards,

I never tried but I think it is. If you check the list of operations available through Web Services you can see the addUser operation at http://localhost:8080/tunnel-web/axis, so I think you can call it as a REST as well.

Hi Thiago:

I just made a try. And after some debigging I found that It cannot be done. At least in 6.0.6

When de call is launched, some checks are done in JSONServiceAction class.

Among other things, it tries to find whether exists the selected method with the provided params.

After that, "getArgValue" is called for each parameter. And when it reached locale, I breaks the execution as Locale is not accepted. I guess that the same would happen with contextService parameter and so...

I had a look t the source of trung in gitHub. Al it looks like some improvements have been done. In case it does not match any data type, It tries to do a loose parsing.

I will have to wait for 6.1 o work against trunk

Regards!!

And thanks for answering Thiago!!
