Accessing One Identity Safeguard for Privileged Sessions (SPS) using the RPC API locks certain components of SPS from other users, just like accessing SPS using the web interface or the console. Locking SPS via RPC can be performed either explicitly by calling the lockAcquire function, or implicitly when an operation requires the lock. In either case, ensure that your application verifies that the lock is received and properly handles if the component is locked by someone else (for example, because a user is accessing the component from the web interface).
For details on how locking works in SPS, see "Multiple users and locking" in the Administration Guide.
The documentation of the One Identity Safeguard for Privileged Sessions (SPS) RPC API is available online from the SPS web interface: select Basic Settings > Management > RPC API settings > Open documentation, or directly from the following URL: https://<ip-address-of-SPS>/rpc-api-doc/. This documentation contains the detailed description of the available services and classes.
The following describes how to configure One Identity Safeguard for Privileged Sessions (SPS) to accept RPC API connections.
To configure SPS to accept RPC API connections
Log in to the SPS web interface.
Select Basic Settings > Management > RPC API settings > Enable RPC API.

Users accounts belonging to a usergroup that have read and write/perform rights to the Access RPC API privilege can access SPS via the RPC API.
Starting with One Identity Safeguard for Privileged Sessions (SPS) version 4 F2, certain parts and features of SPS can be configured using a REST API (Representational State Transfer Application Programming Interface). The REST server conforms to the Hypermedia as the Engine of Application State (HATEOAS).
The SPS REST API uses JSON over HTTPS. The REST server has a single entry point and all resources are available at paths (URLs) returned in the response for a request sent to the entry point. The only path that is guaranteed not to change is /api/authentication. Every other path should be reached by navigating the links returned.
The SPS REST API allows you to create, read, update and delete (CRUD) the configuration resources of SPS.
The user accessing the SPS REST API must have the REST server privilege. For details, see "Modifying group privileges" in the Administration Guide. Note that the built-in api usergroup does not have this privilege by default, it is used to access the SOAP RPC API of SPS.
For details on using the REST API, see REST API Reference Guide.
