can not login using credentials I created thr' rest API

[Deepali5]

I created a user using rest api posting to sys_user

I gave username and password

payload = {"first_name": "Dummy",

"last_name": "User",

"user_name": "user1",

"user_password": "<Somepassword>"

}

I got success response 201

I also assigned admin role to this user.

I can see this user record being created in servicenow.

but if I logout from admin and try to login into servicenow as this new user1, using the credentials I created, I

get error as username or password is incorrect

I am trying do a third party integration with servicenow, for that I need to create my own user and the integrate into incidents.
I want to automate the whole process including creating user. I am just testing right now with rest explorer.

Will look into creating imports/transform later.

How do I know if password is set correctly? If not how to set the password thr' post rest API call?

Thank you

Hi @Prince Arora ,

I created a sys_user_role object using url and payload

url = table_url + 'sys_user_role?sysparm_input_display_value=true'

payload = {"role": "admin",

                   "name": "myRole"

                 }
I got success it generates a role object but it does not contain any roles/permissions assigned.

Then I used the sys_id of this role object created in next call to 

url = table_url + 'sys_user_has_role'

payload = {"role": role_sys_id,

                   "user": user_sys_id}

But it does not work. The user gets a role object assigned with name as myRole but that does not contain any of the permissions that are usually generated.

I don't know if the payload I am using to create sys_user_role in first step above is correct because I don't see that table in rest API explorer to test it out. 

Any ideas?

Thanks
