3828893 - How do I solve User Provisioning v4 API Errors?

Symptom

The User Provisioning Service v4 API may return multiple types of errors during user creation or update.

These errors can be reviewed by retrieving a Detailed Provisioning Request Status, which includes information about each individual extension processed during the request.

When a POST, PUT, or PATCH operation results in a failure, the API generates a provisionId. This identifier can be used to request the detailed status, which contains:

  • the extension where the error occurred
  • the field that produced the error
  • the error code and message
  • the schemaPath, which identifies the exact field in the payload


Below is an example of an error returned in the detailed provisioning status:

{
                    "name": "urn:ietf:params:scim:schemas:extension:spend:2.0:User",
                    "status": {
                        "completed": true,
                        "success": false,
                        "code": "500",
                        "result": "error"
                    },
                    "messages": [
                        {
                            "code": "INVALID_VALUE",
                            "message": "Invalid List Item",
                            "schemaPath": "urn:ietf:params:scim:schemas:extension:spend:2.0:User:customData[id eq \"custom21\"].value",
                            "type": "error"
                        }
                    ]
                }
