3092730 - How to modify a user or group using the SAC API's when you don't know the associate roles in SAP Analytics Cloud (SAC)

When modifying a user or group in SAC, it was previously necessary to know the roles assigned to the user/group when performing a PUT call to update the user/group.

• SAP Analytics Cloud (Enterprise) 2021.14.7

When updating or modifying a user/group it was previously necessary to pass in all the roles for that user/group.

There is now a new header which can be passed which will allow you to modify the user/group and retain any existing roles for them.  The new header is:

x-ignore-roles-if-missing

New Behavior:

Notes:

1. It is still necessary to pass in all user members of the group when updating the group
2. The INFRA_SCIM_IGNORE_ROLES toggle needs to be set on the tenant - however all tenants should now have this enabled by default
3. If the  x-ignore-roles-if-missing header is set to true, you cannot update the "isConcurrent" value of a user as part of the update call.
