Setting the context to Admin when running the OIM API in code

OIM API's run with logged-in users context and not the Admin user context but there are situations where this logged-in user may not have enough capabilities to perform our desired operations.

In such cases We can add below steps and perform our code to run in Admin context... FYI I have used this in the request Data Validator for one of our requirement.

String ContextUserbeforeUpdate=ContextManager.getOIMUser();

         

       System.out.println("Context OIM user Before Updating with Admin Context:  " +ContextManager.getOIMUser());

        

HashMap<String,String> map = new HashMap<String,String>();

               map.put(UserManagerConstants.AttributeName.USER_KEY.getId(), "1");//Passing the User Key of XELSYSADM i.e. 1 , need to pass it as hardcoded as existing context User is not having the search capability to get this key based on Login(XELSYSADM) but anyhow 1 is usrkey for XELSYSADM always.

               ContextManager.setOIMUser("XELSYSADM");

               ContextManager.setUserDetails(map); //Sets the Context Details with XELSYSADM Details

               ContextManager.pushContext(null, ContextManager.ContextTypes.ADMIN, "");

      

       System.out.println("Context OIM user after setting with Admin Context:  " +ContextManager.getOIMUser());

       

               //Perform your operations start ------   

RoleManager roleManager= Platform.getService(RoleManager.class);

Set<String> retKey = new HashSet<String>();

SearchCriteria criteria;

criteria = new SearchCriteria(RoleAttributeName.NAME.getId(), roleName, SearchCriteria.Operator.EQUAL);

List<Role> role=roleManager.search(criteria, retKey, null);

//Perform your operations end -------

              ContextManager.popContext();

            

             System.out.println("Context OIM user after popup:  " +ContextManager.getOIMUser());

            

             ContextManager.setOIMUser(ContextUserbeforeUpdate);

              System.out.println("Context All Values after Setting Back the User:  "+ContextManager.getAllValuesFromCurrentContext());

               System.out.println("Context OIM user after Setting Back the User: " +ContextManager.getOIMUser());
