Synchronize Accounts With the Google Apps Connector

Log in to the Google Apps Developers Console and update your existing project, or create a new project for IDM.

Enable the following APIs for your IDM project:

Set up an OAuth2 Client.

The Google Apps connector uses OAuth2 to authorize the connection to the Google service:

1. In the Google Apps Developers Console, select Credentials > Create Credentials > OAuth client ID.

2. Click Configure Consent Screen, select Internal, and click Create.

3. On the OAuth consent screen, enter an Application name; for example, IDM, and click Save.

   This is the name that will be shown for all applications registered in this project.

4. Select Credentials > Create Credentials > OAuth client ID > Web application, then complete these fields:

   • Authorized JavaScript origins: the URI at which your clients will access your application. The default URI is https://localhost:8443.

     Note

     The URI that you enter here must be the same URI at which you access IDM. If you enter https://localhost:8443 here, but use http://localhost:8080 to access IDM, the sample will not work.

   • Authorized redirect URIs: the OAuth redirect URI, https://localhost:8443/admin/oauth.html by default.

   Click Create.

5. On the OAuth client created popup, make a note of your Client ID and Client Secret.

   Copy and paste these values into a text file, as you will need them when you configure the Google Apps connector.

Add IDM to the Trusted Apps list.

1. Log in to the Google Admin Console.

2. From the top left menu, select Security > API Controls.

3. Select MANAGE THIRD-PARTY APP ACCESS, then click Change Access, and change the IDM app settings to Trusted.

Start IDM with the Google Apps sample configuration:

cd /path/to/openidm/
./startup.sh -p samples/sync-with-google
Executing ./startup.sh...
Using OPENIDM_HOME:   /path/to/openidm
Using PROJECT_HOME:   /path/to/openidm/samples/sync-with-google/
Using OPENIDM_OPTS:   -Xmx1024m -Xms1024m
Using LOGGING_CONFIG: -Djava.util.logging.config.file=/path/to/openidm/conf/logging.properties
Using boot properties at /path/to/openidm/resolver/boot.properties
-> OpenIDM ready

Log in to the Admin UI at the URL https://localhost:8443/admin as the default administrative user (openidm-admin) with password openidm-admin.

This URL reflects the host on which IDM is installed, and must be the same as the Authorized JavaScript origin URI that you set in your Google app.

Select Configure > Connectors and click on the Google Apps connector.

On the Details tab, set Enabled to True.

Enter the Oauth2 Client ID and Client Secret that you obtained in the previous section.

Click Save Connector Changes.

You are redirected to Google's Login page.

When you have logged in, Google requests that you allow access from your project, in this case, IDM.

Click Allow.

If you click Deny here, you will need to return to the Connector Configuration > Details tab in the Admin UI and save your changes again.

When you allow access, you are redirected to the Connectors page in the Admin UI, where the Google Apps Connector should now be Active.

Create a user entry on your Google resource, over REST.

When you create resources for Google, note that the equals (=) character cannot be used in any attribute value.

The following command creates an entry for user Sam Carter:

curl \
--header "X-OpenIDM-Username: openidm-admin" \
--header "X-OpenIDM-Password: openidm-admin" \
--header "Accept-API-Version: resource=1.0" \
--header "Content-Type: application/json" \
--request POST \
--data '{
  "__NAME__": "samcarter@example.com",
  "__PASSWORD__"  : "password",
  "givenName" : "Sam",
  "familyName": "Carter",
  "agreedToTerms": true,
  "changePasswordAtNextLogin" : false
 }' \
"http://localhost:8080/openidm/system/google/__ACCOUNT__?_action=create"
{
  "_id": "103567435255251233551",
  "_rev": "\"iwpzoDgSq9BJw-XzORg0bILYPVc/LWHPMXXG8M0cjQAPITM95Y636cM\"",
  "orgUnitPath": "/",
  "isAdmin": false,
  "fullName": "Sam Carter",

  "changePasswordAtNextLogin": false,
  "isMailboxSetup": true,
  "__NAME__": "samcarter@example.com",
  "agreedToTerms": true,
  "externalIds": null,
  "ipWhitelisted": false,
  "aliases": null,
  "lastLoginTime": [
    "1970-01-01T00:00:00.000Z"
  ],
  "organizations": null,
  "suspended": false,
  "deletionTime": null,
  "familyName": "Carter",

  "emails": [
    {
      "address": "samcarter@example.com",
      "primary": true
    }
  ],
  "phones": null
}

Note the ID of the new user (103567435255251233551 in this example). You will need this ID for the update commands in this section.

Reconcile the Google resource with the managed user repository.

This step should create the new user, Sam Carter (and any other users in your Google resource) in the managed user repository.

To run reconciliation follow these steps:

1. In the Admin UI, select Configure > Mappings.

2. Click on the sourceGoogle__ACCOUNT___managedUser mapping, and click Reconcile.

3. Select Manage > User and verify that the user Sam Carter has been created in the repository.

Update Sam Carter's phone number in your Google resource by sending a PUT request with the updated data, and specifying the user _id in the request:

curl \
--header "X-OpenIDM-Username: openidm-admin" \
--header "X-OpenIDM-Password: openidm-admin" \
--header "Accept-API-Version: resource=1.0" \
--header "Content-Type: application/json" \
--request PUT \
--header "If-Match: *" \
--data '{
  "__NAME__": "samcarter@example.com",
  "__PASSWORD__"  : "password",
  "givenName" : "Sam",
  "familyName": "Carter",
  "agreedToTerms": true,
  "changePasswordAtNextLogin" : false,
  "phones" :
   [
    {
     "value": "1234567890",
     "type": "home"
    },
    {
     "value": "0987654321",
     "type":"work"
    }
   ]
  }' \
"http://localhost:8080/openidm/system/google/__ACCOUNT__/103567435255251233551"
{
  "_id": "103567435255251233551",

    },
    {
      "value": "0987654321",
      "type": "work"
    }
  ]
}

Read Sam Carter's entry from your Google resource by including his _id in the URL:

  "aliases": null,
  "nonEditableAliases": null,
  "__DESCRIPTION__": "Group used for google-connector sample.",
  "name": "TestGroup",
  "directMembersCount": 0
}

Add Sam Carter to the test group you have just created. Include the Member endpoint, and Sam Carter's _id in the URL. Specify the _id of the group you created as the value of the groupKey in the JSON payload:

curl \
--header "X-OpenIDM-Username: openidm-admin" \
--header "X-OpenIDM-Password: openidm-admin" \
--header "Accept-API-Version: resource=1.0" \
--header "Content-Type: application/json" \
 -H 'If-Match: "iwpzoDgSq9BJw-XzORg0bILYPVc/LLhHx2plMJPKeY1-h6eX_OVDi4c"' \
--request PUT \
--data '{
  "__MEMBERS__": [
    {
      "role": "MEMBER",
      "email": "samcarter@example.com"
    }
  ]
