Grouper Users - Open Discussion List

[GOOD Richard <>]

Hi Bill,

out of interest (and apologies if this is slightly off topic), what kind of 
integration are doing between uPortal and Grouper? 

On our roadmap is uPortal integration, currently we're planning to supply 
groups created in Grouper to uPortal via LDAP, with the potential to look at 
a channel/portlet to do group administration.

Cheers,

Richard

Thanks for the information Chris.
 
I've started to go down the path of working with the Rest interface for the 
grouper ws.  I'm throwing out this URL (in a web browser) to our server 
through the Rest interface via GET and it is sending me back the following 
for the result:  I'm not sure what is missing from the url but the response 
says something is null:
 
https://grouper.uchicago.edu/web/servicesRest/v1_4_002/groups/uc%3Aorg%3Ansit%3Awebservices%3Amembers
 
<WsRestResultProblem>
<resultMetadata>
<resultCode>INVALID_QUERY</resultCode>
<resultMessage>
Cant find GrouperWsRestGetGroup from string: 'null', expecting one of: 
members, ,  uri: 
/web/servicesRest/v1_4_002/groups/uc:org:nsit:webservices:members, method: 
GET, decoded url strings: 0: 'v1_4_002', 1: 'groups', 2: 
'uc:org:nsit:webservices:members'
</resultMessage>
<success>F</success>
</resultMetadata>
<responseMetadata>
<millis>1</millis>
<serverVersion>v1_4_002</serverVersion>
</responseMetadata>
</WsRestResultProblem>
 
Do you or any others have any information about this error message?  I 
apologize if this answer is easily remedied from the documentation (I'm 
looking at more of if now). 
 
Thanks again for your help.
Bill

Hey,

 

If you are using SOAP, you need to use the SOAP url and send an XML request 
in the post body, you cant put the group name in the URL (that I am aware 
of).  If you are using REST, then you can put the group name in the URL.

 

See these samples:

 

https://spaces.internet2.edu/display/GrouperWG/Get+Members

 

Here is a SOAP call:

 

http://anonsvn.internet2.edu/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi/i2mi/trunk/grouper-ws/grouper-ws/doc/samples/getMembers/WsSampleGetMembersLite_soap.txt?view=co

 

Depending on how the service is deployed at your school (I don't have access 
to the URL you sent me), you would connect to this URL:

 

https://grouper.uchicago.edu/web/services/GrouperService 
<https://grouper.uchicago.edu/web/services/GrouperService> 

 

And send something like this in the HTTP post body:

 

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>

<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-envelope";>

  <soapenv:Body>

    <ns1:getMembersLite 
xmlns:ns1="http://soap.ws.grouper.middleware.internet2.edu/xsd";>

      <ns1:clientVersion>v1_5_000</ns1:clientVersion>

      <ns1:groupName> uc:org:nsit:webservices:members</ns1:groupName>

      <ns1:groupUuid></ns1:groupUuid>

      <ns1:memberFilter>All</ns1:memberFilter>

      <ns1:actAsSubjectId> </ns1:actAsSubjectId>

      <ns1:actAsSubjectSourceId></ns1:actAsSubjectSourceId>

      <ns1:actAsSubjectIdentifier></ns1:actAsSubjectIdentifier>

      <ns1:fieldName></ns1:fieldName>

      <ns1:includeGroupDetail>F</ns1:includeGroupDetail>

      <ns1:includeSubjectDetail>F</ns1:includeSubjectDetail>

    </ns1:getMembersLite>

  </soapenv:Body>

</soapenv:Envelope>

 

And it should return the members...

 

Thanks,

Chris

Greetings grouper developers:

 

I'm using a grouper client embedded in uPortal 3.1.1.  The client is using 
the SOAP interface to do calls to the grouper web service but the service is 
returning errors.  I think the issue may be that I am not formatting the url 
properly for the query but I can't seem to decode the correct format from the 
documentation so I want to ask here for help. 

 

The service is running at https://grouper.uchicago.edu/web/services 
<https://grouper.uchicago.edu/web/services> 

 

I'm attempting to get the listing of members from a group with id 
uc:org:nsit:webservices:members

 

I'm constructing the query as show below but am getting the following error

 

https://grouper.uchicago.edu/web/services/groups/uc:org:nsit:webservices:members
 

 

Response: 


"The service cannot be found for the endpoint reference (EPR) 
/web/services/groups/uc:org:nsit:webservices:members"

 

Does someone here know if the URL format is correct or if I should be 
querying the SOAP interface in a different way? 

 

Thanks for your input and advice
