Need help to automate the procedure used in User Admin role to assign user to group

Hi

We are using SAP Portal 7.02 SP12 version. In User Admin role using the Export button we can get the user/role/grouop details and we can save the file in the desktop .If we want to add new users to the Group then we just need to add the user id in the saved text file. Then we can import the file to the portal using the Import tab of User Admin role. 

The above task needs to be done by portal administrator.

Can you please provide the information if its feasible to automate the above procedure by developing any application? That is at scheduled time application will run automatically. This application will read the user id, portal group and language information from a file and assign the user to group and update the logon language of user in portal data base.

Thanks & Regards,

Susmita

This will require job scheduling and also an app which will require all the portal admin rights.

Automating is gonna be very difficult.

Hi Siddhant,

We alos have checked and found that its not feasible to automate the procedure performed by Identity management.

In Portal uising KM Scheduler task only we can schedule the job but for this PAR project is required.

Can you please provide the information if we will provide WSDL to PI system then they can update in the portal system and automate the procedure?

if yes how to generate WSDL structure from portal for PI System?

Thanks,

Susmita

Hi Susmita,

If you are able to create such a WSDL which performs these actions/operations as required, i suggest you first test it standalone from WSNavigator. If the WSNavigator returns successful results, calling this WSDL from PI system is surely possible. Refer this for more info:

As far as creating a web service from PI system is concerned, please refer the following links. I am sure it will help:

Hope it helps.

Hi Siddhant,

Yes calling webservice from PI to pportal is feasible..

But is it feasible to create webservice from portal application which will generate WSDL and this will be used by PI susyem?

The requirement is to automate the procedure.So if we creare web service using Java bean then we can not automate the code using KM Scheduler.

Please let me know if any feasibility is there to creare web service from par file .

Thanks,

Susmita

If my understanding about your requirements is correct, there is going to be some code(for example, JSp in your PAR project), which is going to execute your requirements.

And you need to create an entry point (a web service) for this code. Right?
