Hi Folks,

Anyone knows how to execute Optimized Aggregation via API?

I am trying below one’s but it seems outdated and not in use. Any alternative?

Hi @msingh39,

Use Below curl for unoptimized aggregation:

```auto
curl --location --request POST 'https://{{tenant}}.api.identitynow-demo.com/beta/sources/{{SourceId}}/load-accounts' \
--header 'Authorization: Bearer eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsIn' \
--form 'disableOptimization="true"'

```

Optimized Aggregation:

```auto
curl --location --request POST 'https://{{tenant}}.api.identitynow-demo.com/beta/sources/{{SourceId}}/load-accounts' \
--header 'Authorization: Bearer eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsIn' \
--form 'disableOptimization="false"'

```

Thanks  
Bapu

Hi,

Use below powershell code lines to execute successfully:

```auto
$headers = New-Object "System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary[[String],[String]]"
$headers.Add("Content-Type", "multipart/form-data")
$headers.Add("Accept", "application/json")
$headers.Add("Authorization", "Bearer <TOKEN>")

$multipartContent = [System.Net.Http.MultipartFormDataContent]::new()
$stringHeader = [System.Net.Http.Headers.ContentDispositionHeaderValue]::new("form-data")
$stringHeader.Name = "disableOptimization"
$stringContent = [System.Net.Http.StringContent]::new("true")
$stringContent.Headers.ContentDisposition = $stringHeader
$multipartContent.Add($stringContent)

$body = $multipartContent

$response = Invoke-RestMethod 'https://sailpoint.api.identitynow.com/v2024/sources/:id/load-accounts' -Method 'POST' -Headers $headers -Body $body
$response | ConvertTo-Json

```

Thanks

Powershell 5.1 does not support -Form parameter for invoke-restmethod.  
Either install Powershell 7, use C# objects or use CURL. Curl is built in into windows 10+. CURL was added to Windows 10 (1803) and later.

Hi @msingh39,

I have tested below PowerShell script, it is working as expected:

```auto
$bearerToken = "hLTExNjUwIiwiaWRlbnRpdHlfaWQiOiIzMWUwZDU1OGY3ZmY0M2Y5OGJiOTQyNzk3YTg3ODhmNCIsInVzZXJfbmFtZSI6ImJhcHUuZ29ndSIsInNjb3BlIjpbIkJnQUFBQUFBQUFRPSJdLCJzdHJvbmdfYXV0aCI6dHJ1ZSwiZXhwIjoxNzMxNDI4NTI4LCJhdX"
# Run optimized or UnOptimized Aggregation using below
$header = @{
    "Authorization" = "Bearer $bearerToken"
}

$body = @{
"disableOptimization" = "false"
}

$response = Invoke-RestMethod -Method Post ` -Uri "https://tenant-sb.api.identitynow-demo.com/beta/sources/118e606ed9ee4ee7ab70b6f70ad2aa5f/load-accounts" ` -Headers $header -Body $body

echo $response

```

I don’t think @msingh39 is looking for a script to aggregate to do some customizations, believe he is just looking for running aggregation through API, this is quite normal, we do run lot of API calls in our day to day activities.

Do we really need some scripting, why are you complicating this ?

Make it simple, either use API in Postman or use VSCode extension. Make your life easier.
