User Services assist in managing user-related activities, such as adding accounts, aliases, and roles. Frequently used services are marked with an asterisk (*) in the following list.
The following services are described in this section:
Used to create a new alias. The most likely errors are mismatched parameters or when a user or alias already exists in the system.
If you add an alias using the User Admin applet, you must add at least one user. However, you do not need to add a user using IdcCommand or IdcCommandX. To add users using IdcCommand or IdcCommandX, the optional parameter AliasUsersString must be included.
Location: IdcHomeDir/resources/core/templates/std_services.htm
Additional Required Service Parameters
dAlias: The alias name.
dAliasDescription: The alias description.
Optional Service Parameters
AliasUsersString: The alias or user. To add multiple users:
In HDA format: Use the \n escape sequence between each user name when using HDA format, as in this example:
AliasUsersString=sysadmin\nuser1
When using SOAP format, put the unencoded line feed directly into the XML or encode the line feed as ( ).
Example
To create an alias and add a user the required parameters are:
IdcService=ADD_ALIAS dAlias=my_alias dAliasDescription=admin users AliasUsersString=sysadmin
In HDA format, adding a user with the AliasUsersString parameter:
@Properties LocalData IdcService=ADD_ALIAS dAlias=my_alias dAliasDescription=admin users AliasUsersString=sysadmin @end
In HDA format, adding a user with the AliasUserMap and Alias ResultSets:

Service that creates a new security group. The most likely error is when the security group name is not unique.
Location: IdcHomeDir/resources/core/templates/std_services.htm
Additional Required Service Parameters
dGroupName: The security group name.
dDescription: The security group description.
dPrivilege: The permission setting.
If this value is set to 0, only the admin role has RWDA permission on the security group; no other roles are able to access the security group. If the value is set to 15, all roles get RWDA permission on the security group. For more information about numbering of permissions, see the Oracle Fusion Middleware System Administrator's Guide for Content Server.
Example
IdcService=ADD_GROUP dGroupName=NEW_GROUP dPrivilege=15 dDescription=admin privileges
Service that creates a new role. The most likely error is when the role name is not unique.
Location: IdcHomeDir/resources/core/templates/std_services.htm
Additional Required Service Parameters
dRoleName: The role name.
dPrivilege: The permission setting.
If this value is set to 0 only the admin role has RWDA permission on the group. No other roles are able to access the group. If the value is set to 15 all roles get RWDA permission on the group. For more information about numbering of permissions, see the Oracle Fusion Middleware System Administrator's Guide for Content Server.
Example
IdcService=ADD_ROLE dRoleName=specialuser dPrivilege=15
Service used to create a new user. The most likely error is when the user name is not unique.
Location: IdcHomeDir/resources/core/templates/std_services.htm
Additional Required Service Parameters
dName: The user name.
dUserAuthType: The user authorization type. This value must be set to either Local or Global.
Optional Service Parameters
dFullName: The full name of the user.
dPassword: The password for the user.
dEmail: The email address for the user.
Optional Attribute Information
Optional attribute information is specified in a ResultSet that contains the user's attribute information and references the roles the user belongs to and the accounts the user has access to. Attribute information consists of a list of three comma-delimited strings. The first string indicates the type of attribute, the second the name of the attribute, and the third is the access number for accounts or default entry for role.
|
Important: The user attribute information is not predefined. By default, a new user belongs to no roles or accounts, and becomes a guest in the system. |
Attribute Type: When defining a role, the first string specifies that this is a role attribute, the second string is the name of the role, and the third is the default entry of 15.
When defining an account, the first string specifies that this is an account attribute, the second string is the name of the account, and the third is the access level.
For a role attribute, the information is in the form:
role,contributor,15
For an account attribute, the information is in the form:
account,books,1
Attribute Name: A user can belong to multiple roles and accounts, so there can be multiple role and account information strings separated by commas in the attribute information column. If the user is to have the admin role, define the user attribute information as follows:
@ResultSet UserAttribInfo 2 dUserName AttributeInfo jsmith role,contributor,15 @end
If the user is to belong to both the contributor and editor roles and have Read permission on the books account, define the user attribute information as:
@ResultSet UserAttribInfo 2 dUserName AttributeInfo jsmith role,contributor,15,role,editor,15,account,books,1 @end
Access Number: These access numbers can be assigned to the user.
1: Read only
3: Read and write
7: Read, write, delete
15: Administrative permissions
Example
IdcCommand command file format:
IdcService=ADD_USER
dName=specialuser dUserAuthType=LOCAL
HDA format with optional parameters:
@Properties LocalData
IdcService=ADD_USER dName=jsmith dUserAuthType=LOCAL dFullName=Jennifer Smith dPassword=password dEmail=jsmith@stellent.com @end @ResultSet UserAttribInfo 2 dUserName AttributeInfo jsmith role,admin,15,role,contributor,15 @end

Location: IdcHomeDir/resources/core/templates/std_services.htm
Additional Required Service Parameters
curUserAuthType: Current user authentication type.
dUserAuthType: New user authentication type.
Service that checks the credentials of a user. You can use this service to get information about a user (for example, roles and accounts), or use it to check a user/password pair to see if they match. This is called during the authentication process. The data is cached so it is not called for every service request.
This service does not return user data for Microsoft Active Directory managed users when the Content Server is configured to use ADSI. It does return the user data for local users and external LDAP managed users.

Optional Attribute Information
Optional attributes are specified as a ResultSet that contains the user's attribute information and specifies the roles the user belongs to and the accounts the user has access to. Attribute information consists of a list of three comma-delimited strings. The first string indicates the type of attribute, the second the name of the attribute, and the third is the access number for accounts or default entry for role.
Attribute Type: When defining a role, the first string specifies that this is a role attribute, the second string is the name of the role, and the third is the default entry of 15. When defining an account, the first string specifies that this is an account attribute, the second string is the name of the account, and the third is the access level.
For a role attribute, the information is in the form:
role,contributor,15
For an account attribute, the information is in the form:
account,books,1
Attribute Name: A user can belong to multiple roles and accounts, so there can be multiple role and account information strings separated by commas in the attribute information column. If the user is to have the admin role, define the user attribute information as follows:
@ResultSet UserAttribInfo 2 dUserName AttributeInfo jsmith role,contributor,15 @end
If the user is to belong to both the contributor and editor roles and have Read permission on the books account, define the user attribute information as:
@ResultSet UserAttribInfo 2 dUserName AttributeInfo jsmith role,contributor,15,role,editor,15,account,books,1 @end
Access Number: These access numbers can be assigned to the user.
1: Read only
3: Read and write
7: Read, write, delete
15: Administrative permissions
Example
IdcCommand command file format:
IdcService=EDIT_USER dName=user20 dUserAuthType=Local
HDA format with optional parameters and attribute information:

Any of the fields in the Users table (except dName) can be updated by this service.
You can use this service o edit personalization information that is not stored in the database. Some of a user's information is stored in the database and some is stored in personalization data .hda files.
For information in the database, simply passing the corresponding field name and a value causes the field to be updated.
For personalization data, encoded topic strings must be used (for example, topicString1=updateKeys:pne_portal:lm_Layout:Trays).
The Password value cannot be updated for proxied users.
The most likely reason this service would fail is if it cannot find the user (dName) in the system, or if the user name passed in dName does not match the current user.

This service does not return user data for Microsoft Active Directory managed users when the Content Server is configured to use ADSI. It does return the user data for local users and external LDAP managed users.
Location: IdcHomeDir/resources/core/templates/std_services.htm
Additional Required Service Parameters
dName: The user name.
Example
IdcService=QUERY_USER_ATTRIBUTES dName=jsmith
Service that registers a user. If only the user name parameter (dName) is provided, the new user is a local user with the guest role and a blank password.
The most likely error is a user name that is not unique.
Location: IdcHomeDir/resources/core/templates/std_services.htm
Additional Required Service Parameters
dName: The user name.
Optional Service Parameters
dFullName: The full name of the user.
dPassword: The password for the user.
dEmail: The email address for the user.
dUserLocale: The locale designation, such as English-US, English-UK, Deutsche, Français, or Español.
dUserType: The user authorization type, either Local or Global.
Example
IdcService=REGISTER_USER dName=user20
Service used to save personalization information for the user. Seven actions can be performed with this service. The required parameters for the service vary depending upon which action is being performed.
A form is normally used to submit the service request because of the complexity of the data and the number of additional parameters required.
Access Level: Read, Global (17)

Actions
The following actions are used with the topicString parameter:
updateKeys: Updates a single LocalData key variable. The topicString takes 4 values: the first 3 required values plus a fourth that contains the literal string value to be placed in the key variable.
updateKeyByName: This action is new for Content Server version 10.0. Like updateKeys, this action updates a single LocalData key variable. It also takes 4 topicString values. Instead of containing a literal string, the fourth value contains the name of an additional field/parameter that contains the value to be used in the update.
deleteKeys: Deletes a single key variable. The topicString takes the 3 required values only.
updateRows: This action is used to add or update one or more result set rows using a single topic string. The topicString takes 5 values: the first 3 required values; a fourth that contains a comma-delimited list of all result set column names in correct order; a fifth containing a number indicating the total number of rows being updated/added.
A set of additional fields/parameters with names corresponding to the column names must be provided for each row of data based upon the number of rows indicated in the fifth value of the topicString. Sequential numeric suffixes must be appended to the column names of the fields in each row's data set beginning with one and ending with total row number provided in the topicString (if any of these are missing, Content Server throws an error).
If the value for the first column (the unique key) of a row in the update data matches that of an existing row in the result set, the existing row will be updated; otherwise a new row will be appended to the bottom of the result set.
addMruRow: The "Mru" in the name is an acronym for "most-recenly-used". This action adds a single row to the top of a result set. The number of rows in the result set is not allowed to exceed a specified maximum. If a row is added to a result set that already contains the maximum number of rows, the last row is deleted at the same time that the new one is added (essentially keeping only the N most recently used rows in a result set).
The maximum number of rows can be specified using an optional mruNumber parameter. If no mruNumber parameter is provided, the maximum defaults to 10.
The topicString takes 4 values: the first 3 required values and a fourth that contains a comma-delimited list of all result set column names in correct order. Similar to updateRows, a set of additional fields/parameters with names corresponding to the column names must be provided; but since only one row is added/updated at a time, no numeric suffixes are required on the names.
If the value of the first column (the unique key) matches that of an existing row, that row is updated and moved to the top of the result set rather than adding a new row. The number of rows doesn't change, and the affected row is now considered the most-recently-used row.
deleteRows: Deletes one or more rows from a result set. The topicString takes 4 values: the first 3 required values, and a fourth that contains a comma-delimited list of strings that correspond to the DATA VALUES of the first column (unique key) of existing rows in the specified result set.
deleteSets: Deletes one or more result sets from a topic file. The topicString takes only 3 values, but in this case, the third value can be a comma-delimited list of names rather than a single key name, allowing multiple result sets to be deleted using a single topicString.
Optional Service Parameters
numTopics: Tells the service the number of topicStrings to expect.
topicKeys: Identifies the topic string parameter fields by name. Composed of a colon-separated list of one or more names that correspond to fields or parameters that contain the topic strings. A numTopics value must be present when this parameter is used, even if you don't use the enumeration method of identifying topic string values. (Any value can be used for numTopics.)
topicStringn: Composed of three to five values, separated by colons. The number of topic strings depends on the value in numTopics. For example, if numTopics is 2, topicString1 and topicString2 are required.
The values are as follows:
The first value is the action to be taken by the service.
The second value is the name of the topic file that is acted on.
The third value is the key name of the item being modified (either the name of a LocalData key variable, or the name of a result set in the topic file).
The fourth value contains data information for an add or update action. It either contains the data string itself, or it points to additional fields or parameters that contain the data values.
The fifth value is used only with the updateRows action to indicate the number of rows of data being sent.
All of the update actions perform 'add' operations if a key of the given name is not found in the specified topic file. If a topic file matching the name given in the second value is present, but doesn't contain a key (variable or result set) matching the key name given in the third value, then a new variable or result set will be created using the data provided for the update operation. If the topic file itself is not found, it will also be created.
RedirectUrl: Used to display another page. If omitted, the user is redirected to the Content Server home page.
mruNumber: Used to specify the maximum number of rows in a result set when using the addMruRow - 'Add Most-Recently-Used Row' action.
Results
Result Sets: UserTopicEdits (Rows represent each of the topic edits performed by the service call. Rows contain the fields: topicName, topicEditAction, topicKey, topicValue.)

Caution: The following example is not a core configuration of Content Server. This is a custom feature extension and is only supported through the purchase of Consulting Services or through the purchase of our Developer Support Token Program. As with all customizations, when you upgrade your software, the custom changes may be overwritten. |
To add a personal URL, use the following parameters and values:
numTopics=1 topicString1=updateRows:pne_portal:PersonalURLS:title,website:1
These values add rows in the PersonalURLS resultset in the pne_portal.hda user topic. The columns in the resultset are title and website, which are taken from the fourth value of the topic string. The last value (1) tells the service that one row of data is being sent.
You must use additional parameters to the service to specify the row data. These parameters are taken from the title and website column names specified in the topicString. Because it is possible to specify more than one row of data, a numeric suffix is added to each of the column names to form the service parameter name. The first row would require the title1 and website1 parameters and a second row would require the title2 and website2 parameters.
To add a row of data that is a link to the home page, set the values of the title1 and website1 parameters to Home Page and http://www.stellent.com. These values must be URL-encoded if you are adding them directly to the URL in the browser address bar; if you use a form in a Web page to submit the data, encoding is handled. Using a form, the complete service specification would be the following:
<FORM name='addPersonalUrlForm' method='POST' action='<$HttpCgiPath$>'> <INPUT type='hidden' name='IdcService' value='SAVE_USER_TOPICS'> <INPUT type='hidden' name='numTopics' value='1'> <INPUT type='hidden' name='topicString1' value='updateRows:pne_portal:PersonalURLS:title,website:1'> <INPUT type='hidden' name='title1' value='Stellent Home Page'> <INPUT type='hidden' name='website1' value='http://www.stellent.com'> <INPUT type='submit' value='Submit'> </FORM>
Service that updates the Web server filter settings.
Location: IdcHomeDir/resources/core/templates/std_services.htm
Service that adds or updates an option list for a user information field.
|
Caution: The option list values specified in the OptionListString parameter replace any existing values. To retain existing values, you must include the existing values along with the new values. |
Option list values for the User Type field and all custom user information fields are not stored in the database but in the useroptions.hda file, which is normally located in the DomainHome/ucm/cs/data/users/config/ directory.
Location: IdcHomeDir/resources/core/templates/std_services.htm
Additional Required Service Parameters
dKey: The option list key.
OptionListString: The list of options, separated by the \n escape sequence.
Example
IdcCommand command file format:
# Add values NY, DC, CA to UserTypeList IdcService=UPDATE_USEROPTION_LIST dKey=Users_UserTypeList OptionListString=NY\nDC\nCA
HDA format (adds the values NY, DC, and CA to UserTypeList):
@Properties LocalData IdcService=UPDATE_USEROPTION_LIST dKey=Users_UserTypeList OptionListString=NY\nDC\nCA @end
