Create a User with POSIX Attributes and Add to Group

Create a user with POSIX attributes and add the user to the group previously created.

Create a user.json file with the following request body:

user.json

{
"password": "Securepasswd@1",
"userName": "userPosix",
"Name.givenName": "user",
"Name.familyName": "Posix",
"userType": "Employee",
"emails": [
{
"value": "user.posix@example.com",
"type": "work",
"primary": true
},
{
"value": "posix@example.com",
"type": "home"
}
],
"addresses": [
{
"type": "work",
"primary": true,
"streetAddress": "401 Island Parkway",
"locality": "Redwood Shores",
"region": "California",
"postalCode": "94065",
"country": "US",
"formatted": "userPosix"
}
],
"urn:ietf:params:scim:schemas:oracle:idcs:extension:posix:User": {
"homeDirectory": "/home/userPosix",
"loginShell": "/bin/bash",
"gecos": "userPosix 24855",
"uidNumber": 12001,
"gidNumber": 11010
},
"meta": {
"resourceType": "User"
},
"schemas": [
"urn:ietf:params:scim:schemas:core:2.0:User",
"urn:ietf:params:scim:schemas:oracle:idcs:extension:posix:User"
]
}

where:

userName is set to the username of the user you wish to create
homeDirectory is set to the location of the user's home directory
loginShell is set to the default shell
gecos is set to general information about the user, for example the user's username and phone number
uidNumber must be set to a unique user id (uid) number in Linux. Use the getent passwd command on Linux to see existing users and their uid's
gidNumber must be set to the group id (gid) number created previously

Run the following curl command to create the user and add it to the group:
user.json
```
curl -k -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" -H "Authorization: Bearer <token-string>" "https://identity-cloud-service-instance-url/admin/v1/Users" -d '@user.json'
```
where:
- token-string is the OAuth access token that you obtained
- identity-cloud-service-instance-url is your Oracle Identity Cloud Service Instance URL
Note:
It is not possible to create a user with POSIX attributes using the Oracle Identity Cloud Service Administration Console.

Once the user is created, the user will be sent a notification email to activate their account and set a new password. The user must activate their account before testing authentication in Linux.
