Identity API

Predominant token scope: Configuration

The Identity interface manages users and group access. The Web SDK supports the following identity providers for viewing individuals and groups of users:

  • AD: Read only. Allows view capability from an external Microsoft Active Directory (AD). Requires an Active Directory connection before making API calls. For more information, see the Administration Guide.

  • LDAP: Read only. Allows view capability from an external Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) data source. Requires setup before making API calls. Use the LDAP Identity Provider Wizard. For more information, see the Administration Guide.
  • local: Default. Allows view capability and password rotation only in Trust Protection Platform.

What is the difference between Credentials, Permissions, and Identity?

  • Credentials endpoints manage certificate and other activities. For more information, see Credentials API.

  • Identity endpoints manage Venafi users. For more information, see Identity API.

  • Permissions endpoints grant principals (users and groups) privileges to objects within Trust Protection Platform. For more information, see Permissions API.
