APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • The user table in apim DB allows to change the user type through
a PUT call for an APIM user. Which breaks the login of the
specific user in the APIM UI and also shows the member list
empty in the UI.

Local fix

  • You can make a PATH call for the same user using curl to fix the
type:
curl ' https://cloud-manager-host/user-url' -X PATCH -H 'Accept:
application/json' -H 'Accept-Language: en-US,en;q=0.5' -H
'Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate, br' -H 'Referer:
https://cloud.mgmt.dev.ibm.com/admin/members/add/' -H
'Authorization: Bearer eyJhxxxxxvcdw5I510lrgiBxuMw' -H
'Content-Type: application/json' --data-raw '{"type":"user"}' -k
-i
You can obtain the user url from the REST API call: https://api
mserver.example.com/api/user-registries/{org}/{user-registry}/u
sers

Problem summary

  • User login fails after user updates certain fields like the
'type' property of the user record

Problem conclusion

  • Issue is fixed in API Connect versions 10.0.7 and 10.0.5.5.

Temporary fix
