The examples included in this section are based on common provisioning and administration flows.
Take note of the following when using Before using the examples for the Manage Users endpoint and resources, take note of the following points:

Admin accounts
Theauth_token
must be associated with a user with Admin admin privileges.
API user passwords
If the password changes on the account, the auth_token
also changes.
Key
...
fields
All email addresses and usernames must be unique as these are key fields.
Field name case-sensitity
Fuse field names are case-sensitive. If a field does not update or you are getting a bad response, check that the field name being sent within the request matches the field name on fuse Fuse exactly.
Duplicates
If you are creating a new user and the username
or email
already exists on that Fuse instance, you will receive an error, even if the existing account is deactivated.
Passwords
Ensure that the password
and password_confirmation
being specified when creating a user, meets the minimum password rules in the Fuse instance. It If your password does not meet these rules, an error will occuroccurs.
Password / Password
...
confirmation
The password
and password_confirmation
fields are mandatory when creating a user, even when SSO is enabled. These credentials are to support the local login option. Therefore it is strongly recommended that customers utilise password randomisation logic, so that each user has a unique password based on their recommended password policy and the configured Fuse password controls.
...
Unable to assign a manager/reportee during user creation
If you cannot assign a manager or reportee when creating a user using a POST request, because the user ID is not available until after the user
...
Use has been created, use a separate API call to associate assign managers/reportees.
Custom
...
profile fields
Remember that whilst the Settings options will be standard for all customers, the fields listed below the user’s Profile will be specific and unique for each customer. To see what custom profile options are configured for a Fuse instance, refer to the API documentation on that instance:https://<instance_name>.fuseuniversal.com/site-admin/api_documentations
Configuration type settings
Most of the configuration type settings can be configured at instance level, so are generally not required to be set at the user level using the API.

Custom code for a custom field/dropdown does not match codes on server
Fuse dropdown field options are referenced by unique codes. These must match the codes for the options. You can check the codes using the custom_options API endpoint.
Custom
...
dropdown fields
If custom drop/down fields are used, they must reference a unique code generated by Fuse when each is created.
