  • 1.  PolicyManagement perl API for Partnership creation

    Posted Feb 25, 2020 08:47 AM
    Hello There,

    I'm trying to come up with a PERL script to create partnership connections in SM 12.8. I was able to find the PolicyManagement APIs for creating SAML service Providers that falls under affiliation where as I wasn't able to find the same for Partnership model. Please do suggest.

    Thanks much!

    Hi Navin,

    As per the following KD, this functionality isn't implemented yet :

    Perl CLI method to manage federation partnerships
    https://ca-broadcom.wolkenservicedesk.com/external/article?articleId=13672

    I've checked the latest version release notes, and this functionality
    doesn't show up neither.

    As such, we invite you to submit an Enhancement request to get the
    possibility to manage Federation Partnerships using Policy Server Perl
    CLI API :

    1. Go to the "All Ideas" page :
    https://community.broadcom.com/ideation/allideas
    2. Click on the "Add" button.
    3. In the "Select categories...", select "Layer7 Access Management".
    4. Write a title in the "title" box.
    5. Write a complete description of the Enahcement Request or
    Certification you'd like to post.
    6. Click on "Save" to get the Idea submitted !

    Tell us if you need further precision,

    Best Regards,
    Patrick

    Have you considered using the REST API rather than the PERL API?  The REST API can create new or migrate existing partnership federations.

    Try this link:  https://techdocs.broadcom.com/content/broadcom/techdocs/us/en/ca-enterprise-software/layer7-identity-and-access-management/single-sign-on/12-8-03/programming/policy-object-rest-apis.html

    Your r12.8 WAMUI also has a link to the "REST APIs" near the lower right corner of the page.  You can start learning how it works with a little experimentation.
