User

V2 / User

Use this resource to request the details of an Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services user account or the details of all user accounts in the organization. If you have administrator privileges, you can also use this resource to create or update a user account and to delete a user account. To ensure organization security, this resource does not display or update the password for a user account.

Note
To leverage full user management capabilities, use the version 3 users resource instead of the version 2 user resource. The version 3 users resource supports users, user groups, and roles. The version 2 user resource does not support user groups and roles, and a GET request might not return all users in the organization
