User management API does not retrieve the only user (admin) under the trial account

[fayoubh]

Hello,

I've created Apigee Edge trial account using the link https://login.apigee.com/sign__up. Upon account activated, generated OAuth token using the below API.

POST https://login.apigee.com/oauth/token
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded

Accept: application/json;charset=utf-8

Authorization: Basic ZWRnZWNsaTplZGdlY2xpc2VjcmV0

username=xxxx@yyyy.com&password=xxxx&grant_type=password

This return the access token response as below:

{ "access_token": "xxx",

"token_type": "bearer",

"refresh_token": "xxx",

"expires_in": 43199,

"scope": "scim.emails.read scim.me openid password.write approvals.me scim.ids.read oauth.approvals",

"jti": "3e7d31ff-3d85-41a3-8472-3b3e17f746e6"

}

Thus generated access token used for the API call

GET https://api.enterprise.apigee.com/v1/users

Authorization: Bearer xxxx

This resulted in response 403 Forbidden.

When tried the API call

GET https://api.enterprise.apigee.com/v1/organizations/{my_trial_account_organization_name_here}/users

Authorization: Bearer xxxx

Returned below response:

200 OK

[]

Could some please let me know why the admin user is not listed in the second API call and why the first API call is retuning 403 error?

The /users endpoint is only available for Apigee Edge Private Cloud, not the public cloud version.

For what you're trying to find you may find the following APIs useful

/userroles - to get list of user roles

/userroles/x/users- to get list of users associated with a role eg such as orgadmin

Thank you so much Dane for clarifying on the API availabilities.

Could you please let me know whether this limitation introduced recently?

I remember on month of August, 2020 we had done a POC on the same APIs and we were able to achieve the below listed operations:

Create User	https://api.enterprise.apigee.com/v1/organizations/{organization}/users
Update User	https://api.enterprise.apigee.com/v1/organizations/{organization}/users/{id}
Delete User	https://api.enterprise.apigee.com/v1/organizations/{organization}/users/{id}
Get a User	https://api.enterprise.apigee.com/v1/organizations/{organization}/users/{id}
List Users	https://api.enterprise.apigee.com/v1/organizations/{organization}/users
Get User roles	https://api.enterprise.apigee.com/v1/organizations/{organization}/users/{userId}/userroles
Add User roles	https://api.enterprise.apigee.com/v1/organizations/{organization}/userroles/{roleId}/users
Remove User role	https://api.enterprise.apigee.com/v1/organizations/{organization}/userroles/{roleId}/users/{userId}

Could you help me in understanding the difference in the behavior?
