Automatically trigger Directory sync

[Magdalena_]

Is there any way how one can automatically trigger Directory sync (from clooudclient, vco, restapi ...) ?

This can be triggered from the API, but you need to use the administrator@vsphere.local account to do it (I think).

Let me test it and get back to you shortly.

Grant, were you able to identify the call needed to execute a directory sync? This is the only thing preventing us from having a fully-automated user onboarding solution.

Sorry, this fell off the front page so I lost track of it.

Can you please try the following?

GET https://vra-01a.corp.local/SAAS/jersey/manager/api/connectormanagement/directoryconfigs/

GET https://vra-01a.corp.local/SAAS/jersey/manager/api/connectormanagement/directoryconfigs/09d7ae99-fef...

POST https://vra-01a.corp.local/SAAS/jersey/manager/api/connectormanagement/directoryconfigs/09d7ae99-fef...

The first is getting a list of directory configs, the second isn't *really* required but is just me listing out the directory config (your ID will be unique), just good to see the process to get to the POST of the sync request.
