There is an Add User smart service that can be called via process (which can be initiated from an external system via a web API). This smart service can also be called directly from an Appian Web API (https://docs.appian.com/suite/help/19.1/Add_User_Smart_Service.html#a!createuser()) So an external system can call this Appian endpoint with the right data and create the user for you.If you need to integrate with an identity management system then I recommend looking at the links that P.Siva shared above.
hello! thank you for your response. i am aware of the create user smart service but theres no option for me to set a permanent password for the user as I would like the whole user creation process to be automated. Hoping to hear a favorable response from you soon :)
Hi Rabiah,
How about having a look into personalization-utilities.
Create User With i18n:
hellO! thank you for your suggestion. I am currently exploring Import Users from CSV Smart Service. Due to some unknown issues faced, i have yet to see the results im looking for -> creating users with a password. Will let update if this works for my case. thank you
We are currently using POST API method to add users to Appian cloud instance from on premise system controlling the user creation process with a temporary password using the add user smart service and it works fine.
hello Ankur, im aware of the solution you have proposed hwoever, our goal is to automate the user login without having to manually navigate to the inbox to get the temp password :)
