Samples of use

SPML Provider implements the SPML v2 core protocol and supports the DSML v2 Profile for SPML operations. SPML Provider comes with a sample client that includes examples illustrating how to construct SOAP messages that contain SPML payloads to perform common directory operations.

To work with the examples in the SPML Provider sample client

  1. From the Start menu on the computer on which SPML Provider is installed, select Active RolesSPML Provider to open the home page of the sample client in your Web browser.
  2. On the Samples of Use home page, under How do I, click the example you want to examine.

For instance, you might click Create new user to view, modify, and perform the SPML v2 request that creates a user object.

  1. On the page that opens, in the SPMLv2 request box, view the SOAP message that will be sent to SPML Provider.

You may need to modify the SOAP message in order to adjust it to your environment. Thus, with the Create new user example, you have to set the ID attribute of the <ContainerID> element to the distinguished name (DN) of the container where you want to create a new user.

  1. Click the Send Request button to send the SOAP message to SPML Provider.
  2. In the SPMLv2 response box, view the SOAP message returned by SPML Provider in response to your request.
  3. To examine another example, return to the home page, and then click the desired example.

Configuration settings in sample.config

Support for configuration options enables administrators to set the SPML Provider sample client configuration in order to test the SPML Provider functionality under actual conditions. Administrators can, for example, specify the desired settings for the sample container object (OU) that will be used in sample SPML v.2 operations.

The configuration settings of the SPML Provider sample client can be found in the sample.config file located in the Samples sub-folder of the SPML Provider installation folder.

The sample.config file contains data in the XML format. You can open and edit the configuration file with a common text editor such as Notepad. The default configuration settings in the sample.config file look as follows:

<samples>

<server>localhost</server>

<url>ARServerSPML/spmlprovider.asmx</url>

<sampleContainerName>OU=MyOU,DC=Company,DC=com</sampleContainerName>

</samples>

The following table provides reference information for XML elements used in the sample.config. file.

Table 12: Core operation samples

Operation

Description

List targets available for provisioning with SPML Provider

This example illustrates how to retrieve the targets available for provisioning with SPML Provider.

To do this, SPML Provider performs the listTargets operation.

The request message includes the following XML elements:

  • The <soap:Envelope> and <soap:Body> SOAP elements enclose the SPML payload.
  • The <listTargetsRequest> element asks SPML Provider to declare the set of targets that SPML Provider exposes for provisioning operations.

The response lists the supported targets, including the schema definitions for each target and the set of capabilities that SPML Provider supports for each target. The contents of the <listTargetsResponse> element conform to the OASIS SPML v2 specification.

Create new user

Create new user (using direct access mode)

These examples illustrate how to create a user account object in two operation modes.

To create a new object, SPML Provider performs the add operation.

The request message includes the following XML elements:

  • The <soap:Envelope> and <soap:Body> SOAP elements enclose the SPML payload.
  • The <addRequest> element asks SPML Provider to create a new object.
  • The <containerID> element specifies the distinguished name of the container in which to create the new object.
  • The <data> element encloses the elements that specify attribute values on the new object. Thus, in accordance with the objectClass attribute value, SPML Provider is requested to create a user account.

The operation response indicates whether the user account is successfully created.

Note that in direct access mode, to provision a user account, you should complete the following steps:

  • Issue a request to create a new user account (see above).
  • Issue a request to set the user password (see “Set user password” in “Password capability samples,” later in this document).
  • Issue a request to enable the user account (see “Resume user account” in "Suspend capability samples,” later in this document).

Create new user (approval aware)

This example illustrates how to create a user account if this operation is subject to approval by designated approvers. For more information about approval activities and workflows, refer to Active Roles Help and Active Roles SDK.

If the creation of user is subject to approval, to perform the operation, your SPML request must contain the AllowApproval built-in control. For information about how to use controls in SPML requests, see Support for Active Roles controls earlier in this document.

To create a new object, SPML Provider performs the add operation.

The request message includes the following XML elements:

  • The <soap:Envelope> and <soap:Body> SOAP elements enclose the SPML payload.
  • The <addRequest> element asks SPML Provider to create a new object.
  • The <controls> element includes the child element <control> that sets the AllowApproval control to the Confirm value.
  • The <controlsForOutput> element includes the child element <control>, which specifies that the OperationStatus control will be returned with the SPML response.
  • The <containerID> element specifies the distinguished name of the container in which to create the new object.
  • The <data> element encloses the elements that specify attribute values on the new object. Thus, in accordance with the objectClass attribute value, SPML Provider is requested to create a user account.

The operation response contains the OperationStatus control value that indicates the creation operation status. For example, if the user creation operation is subject to approval, the OperationStatus control returns the Pending value. In this case, the operation is waiting for approval by designated approvers. For more information about possible values of the OperationStatus control, see Active Roles SDK.

Create a user whose logon name is not in compliance with Active Roles policies

This example illustrates an attempt to create a new user account whose logon name does not conform to the Active Roles policies.

Because the user logon name does not conform to the Active Roles policies, the creation operation fails and the operation response includes an error message returned by Active Roles. For example, an attempt to set the sAMAccountName attribute to a string of more than 20 characters causes the user creation operation to fail, with the response containing a message that provides some details on the error condition.

Create new group

This example illustrates how to create the group object SPMLGroup in the mycompany.com domain.

To create a new object, SPML Provider performs the add operation.

The request message includes the following XML elements:

  • The <soap:Envelope> and <soap:Body> SOAP elements enclose the SPML payload.
  • The <addRequest> element asks SPML Provider to create a new object.
  • The <psoID> element specifies the distinguished name of the object to be created.
  • The <data> element encloses the elements that specify attribute values on the new object. Thus, in accordance with the objectClass attribute value, SPML Provider is requested to create a group object.

Modify user attributes

This example illustrates how to modify the description attribute of the John Smith user object in the mycompany.com domain.

To modify the object attribute, SPML Provider performs the modify operation.

The request message includes the following XML elements:

  • The <soap:Envelope> and <soap:Body> SOAP elements enclose the SPML payload.
  • The <modifyRequest> element asks SPML Provider to make changes to a specified object.
  • The <psoID> element specifies the distinguished name of the user account to be modified.
  • The <modification> element specifies the type of change as replace, causing the new values to replace the existing attribute values.
  • The <data> element encloses the elements that specify the new attribute values.

Modify Shared mailbox user permissions

Modify or replace the edsaUserMailboxSecurityDescriptorSddl attribute of the Shared mailbox object.

To modify the object attribute, SPML Provider performs the modify operation.

The request message includes the following XML elements:

  • The <soap:Envelope> and <soap:Body> SOAP elements enclose the SPML payload.
  • The <modifyRequest> element asks SPML Provider to make changes to a specified object.
  • The <psoID> element specifies the distinguished name of the user account to be modified.
  • The <modification> element specifies the type of change as replace, causing the new values to replace the existing attribute values.
  • The <data> element encloses the elements that specify the new attribute values, in SDDL format along with the SID of the user specified.

For example, see Sample request to modify Shared mailbox user permissions.

Add user to group

This example illustrates how to add the John Smith user account to the SPMLGroup group object in the mycompany.com domain.

To do this, SPML Provider preforms the modify operation.

  • The request message includes the following XML elements:
  • The <soap:Envelope> and <soap:Body> SOAP elements enclose the SPML payload.
  • The <modifyRequest> element asks SPML Provider to make changes to a specified object.
  • The <psoID> element specifies the distinguished name of the group object to be modified.
  • The <modification> element specifies the type of change as add, causing the new values to be appended to the existing attribute values.
  • The <data> element encloses the elements that specify the distinguished name of the user account to be appended to the existing values of the member attribute.

Look up user attributes

This example illustrates how to get the XML representation of the John Smith userin the mycompany.com domain.

To get the XML representation of an object, SPML Provider performs the lookup operation.

The request message includes the following XML elements:

  • The <soap:Envelope> and <soap:Body> SOAP elements enclose the SPML payload.
  • The <lookupRequest> element asks SPML Provider to return the XML document that represents a specified object.
  • The <psoID> element specifies the distinguished name of the object.

The response contains the object identifier, the XML representation of the object and its attributes, and information about SPML Provider capabilities that are supported on the object (the capability-specific data that is associated with the object).

Delete user

This example illustrates how to delete the John Smith user account.

To do this, SPML Provider performs the delete operation.

The request message includes the following XML elements:

  • The <soap:Envelope> and <soap:Body> SOAP elements enclose the SPML payload.
  • The <deleteRequest> element asks SPML Provider to delete a specified object.
  • The <psoID> element specifies the distinguished name of the user account to delete.

Delete group

This example illustrates how to delete the SPMLGroup group object in the mycompany.com domain.

To do this, SPML Provider performs the delete operation.

The request message includes the following XML elements:

  • The <soap:Envelope> and <soap:Body> SOAP elements enclose the SPML payload.
  • The <deleteRequest> element asks SPML Provider to delete a specified object.
  • The <psoID> element specifies the distinguished name of the group object to delete.
