REST API reference (I'm looking for old-school knowledge)

Which IIQ version are you inquiring about?

8.3sp2

TLDR

I know that the SCIM API documentation can be found here: API Specifications | SailPoint Developer Community

However, this API seems sooo limited compared to the older REST API. For example, in the REST API, you can fire off test connections!! I found this article on it: Solved: How to automate step Application/Test Connection? - Compass

Where is the old REST API reference document that shows all the hidden goodies that are in it? I simply don’t have time to walk the URL structure to try and find stuff. I’m looking for a seasoned IdentityIQ dev that still has it that REST API reference laying around!!

Hi @acrumley,

take a look on this page.

Unfortunately that is where I started. Meant to include that in my post. That page doesn’t include the API calls that are described here:

This means that there is much more to the REST API than that article. My goal is to try to locate additional API references versus trying to reverse the API structure and guess what is in there.

What exactly is the issue? With a workflow SCIM request you can pretty much do anything and you can track everything that gets done. I have been working on IIQ for 8 years and have never had a need to use the “old school” API. I think part of the reason this is not so much in favor is that it is so invasive, kind of like if you started hitting the database with writes. I let the (Java) API do the work, so that if there’s a version change it’s much easier to deal with deprecations or changes; just change the workflow / rule Java code.

I am trying to run IIQ instance health checks. for example, testing application connections. I might want to do other automated tests by hitting API calls. However, baking them into the workflow is a valid solution. I was just trying to leverage the REST APIs that might do that for me versus having to code it myself.
