Team,

I am creating an automation to bulk upload access profile to an application. I am looking for API’s which do the below

1. Create an application and assign a source
2. Add Access profiles created to the application
3. Enable application for Request by users.

If any leads please do let me know.

Thanks

Hi @PratithShetty,

Currently, there are only “cc” API endpoints to create and update application. Below are the API endpoints for your requirement:

1. Create an application:

```auto
{
   "name" : "<<App_name>>",
   "description" : "<<App_description>>"
}

```

```
* Once app is created, save the application id received in the response

```

1. Assign source, add access profiles and enable application for request:

- API url: https://\<\<tenant\_name\>\>.api.identitynow.com/cc/api/app/update/\<\<application\_id\>\>

- Method: POST

- Body:

```auto
{
    "accountServiceId": "<<source_cloudexternalId>>",
    "launchpadEnabled": "true",
    "provisionRequestEnabled": "true",
    "accountServiceMatchAllAccounts":"true",
    "accessProfileIds": ["Access_Profile1_Id","Access_Profile2_Id",..."Access_Profilen_Id"]
}

```

- To assign source to app, make a get source API call and save the value in “cloudExternalId” and place that value in “accountServiceId” attribute in the above update app json body

Thank you.  
Regards,  
Shanmukh
