WSO2 Identity Server - How to assign an existing role to a WSO2 IS user?

Question

I am using WSO2 Identity Server 4.1.0. My requirement is to assign an existing role to a user created in the WSO2 default identity store. I have tried the following:

Answer 1

I assume you have the SCIM Id for the role and it is 'c83dc72c-15c2-40f2-bffffd-4acb086b9e17'. And user store is configured properly so the user and role is in the same user store.

If the above conditions are true, you can do the following to achieve the task.

1. Create the user with curl command (here you are using SCIM)
2. Update the group with the PUT method with the user's SCIM ID.

For example,

curl -v -k --user admin:admin -X PUT -d "{"displayName": 'Engineer' ,"members": [{"value":"334d988a-5e68-4594-8b96-356adeec29f1","display": "venura"}, {"value":"p09okhyt-5e68-4594-8mkj-356ade12we34","display": "testUser"}]}" --header "Content-Type:application/json" https://localhost:9443/wso2/scim/Groups/c83dc72c-15c2-40f2-bffffd-4acb086b9e17
