Hi Firman,
To create an application user in admin.powerplatform.microsoft using code in Node.js, you will need to use the Microsoft Graph API. The Microsoft Graph API allows you to access and manage various resources within the Power Platform, including users. Here's an example of how you can use the Microsoft Graph API to create an application user:
-
First, you will need to register an app in Azure Active Directory. This will give you an clientId and clientSecret which will be used for authentication.
-
Once you have the clientId and clientSecret, you can use the msal library to obtain an access token. Here's an example of how to do this:
const msal = require("msal");
const clientId = "";
const clientSecret = "";
const client = new msal.ConfidentialClientApplication({
auth: {
clientId: clientId,
clientSecret: clientSecret,
authority: "https://login.microsoftonline.com/common",
tokenCache: new msal.TokenCache()
}
});
const scopes = ["https://graph.microsoft.com/.default"];
const getAccessToken = async () => {
try {
const authResponse = await client.acquireTokenForClient(scopes);
return authResponse.accessToken;
} catch (error) {
console.log("Error getting access token: " error);
}
};
- Once you have the access token, you can use it to make a POST request to the Microsoft Graph API to create the user. Here's an example of how to do this using the
request library:
const request = require("request");
const token = await getAccessToken();
const options = {
method: "POST",
url: "https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/users",
headers: {
"Authorization": "Bearer " token,
"Content-Type": "application/json"
},
json: true,
body: {
"accountEnabled": true,
"displayName": "Application User",
"passwordProfile": {
"forceChangePasswordNextSignIn": true,
"password": "Pass@word1"
},
"userPrincipalName": "applicationuser@yourdomain.onmicrosoft.com"
}
};
request(options, (error, response, body) => {
if (error) {
console.log("Error creating user: " error);
} else {
console.log("User created successfully: " JSON.stringify(body));
}
});
You can also use other libraries like axios or node-fetch for making HTTP call for the above steps
Please note that this is just an example and the request body may vary based on the required fields of the application user. You will also have to check the permissions of your app registration to ensure that it has the necessary permissions to create an application user. You can refer to the Microsoft Graph API documentation for more information on creating application users and managing users within the Power Platform.
