OpenDJ implements an action that lets the server set the resource ID
on creation. To use this action, perform an HTTP POST with header
Content-Type: application/json,
_action=create in the query string, and the JSON content of
your resource.
The following example creates a new user entry.
$ curl
--request POST
--user kvaughan:bribery
--header "Content-Type: application/json"
--data '{
"_id": "newuser",
"contactInformation": {
"telephoneNumber": "+1 408 555 1212",
"emailAddress": "newuser@example.com"
},
"name": {
"familyName": "New",
"givenName": "User"
},
"displayName": "New User",
"manager": [
{
"_id": "kvaughan",
"displayName": "Kirsten Vaughan"
}
]
}'
