I’m using SP import/export API. I have the orchestration working, all objects exported. I can import most objects however IDENTITY_PROFILE objects which returns an error (also having problem with TRIGGER_SUBSCRIPTION objects, but that looks like a different syndrome). When I try to import an identi…

Welcome to the developer community David. There’s a possible bug at work here, but can you try something first to help narrow down the issue? Try exporting the sources and the identity profiles into separate files. Then, import the sources file first. Once that is complete, then import the ident…

Hi Colin. Thanks for the response. That’s what has been done already, The SOURCE objects have been imported (not operational, haven’t given them passwords yet). When I import just a single corresponding IDENTITY_PROFILE object I get the error: Unable to resolve reference for object [type: SOURCE, …

So I tried importing that SOURCE object in the same import as well (so my import now contains one IDENTITY_PROFILE and two SOURCE objects), but same result. Just to be clear though, the import file contains …

Thanks Colin. We’re eagerly awaiting some news on this as our deadline to get these imported is nigh. I notice the v3 import and beta individual create of identity profiles are broken as well (v3 import with an error that looks he same, and beta individual create POST with a HTTP 500 error), is tha…

This all appears to be related, with the root issue being something with the Identity Profiles API and not the SP-Config API. I have alerted the PM and hope to have a response soon.

Confirming I also have the exact same issue and tried various things (like stripping IDs etc). Curiously @davidloone you will find that changing the authoritativeSource reference from (for example) "authoritativeSource": { "type": "SOURCE", "id": "<id>", …
