users_create_remote {connectapi}

Create a Remote User

Description

The remote user creation workflow involves authentication providers like LDAP that involve a queryable identity store. This helper wraps the API calls necessary to retrieve information about and then create such a user. It functions with a "fuzzy match" prefix by default, but if you want to instantiate users directly, you should set exact = TRUE.

Usage

users_create_remote(connect, prefix, expect = 1, check = TRUE, exact = FALSE)

Arguments

prefix

expect

boolean. Optional. Whether to only create users whose username exactly matches the provided prefix.
