Thanks Hans-Rudolf, Yes - you are right. The wiki does link there but it wasn't obvious to me. Reading the UserAPIController link source code suggests as long as I am authenticated as a Galaxy Admin, I could use this to create new user accounts: https://docs.galaxyproject.org/en/master/_modules/galaxy/webapps/galaxy/api/... Thank looks very promising... Peter On Mon, Aug 29, 2016 at 4:36 PM, Hans-Rudolf Hotz <hrh@fmi.ch> wrote:
Hi Peter

Hi Martin,
I'd like to look into creating new users via the API (where we can control the email address and username format for integration with our cluster), and have the web-interface forbid users from self-registration.
The read-the-docs site you mentioned in this old email (below) doesn't exist anymore, and the API wiki page doesn't seem to link to something similar:
https://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Admin/API
Where is the official API documentation now?
Thanks,
Peter

Hi,
you specify username, password and email in the body (payload) of the POST as Key:Value pairs.
Code from the API method: (
https://galaxy-central.readthedocs.org/en/latest/_modules/galaxy/webapps/gal...
username=payload['username']email=payload['email']password=payload['password']
There are also other conditions that need to be fulfilled (e.g. user creation has to be turned on in the configuration) - you will find these when you look at the source code of the method (because the documentation is not perfect yet, sorry).
