Question on Pagination. about okta-sdk-java HOT 10 CLOSED

You would need to call client.getDataStore().getResource() instead of client.listUsers for this work around. Similar to #170 (comment), you could build your query this way.

from okta-sdk-java.

Not directly, but we do have automatic retry logic. Were you programmatically retrying after a failure?

Can you give me an example of how you were iterating over all of your users? How many users did you have?

I ask for two reasons, we could possibly suggest a different approach, and if we add this or similar feature.

All that said, you could use the DataStore client.getDatastore() directly to make any request.

from okta-sdk-java.

The use case is we have a batch which validates data across our systems.If we find discrepancies with data we make necessary changes.

Sometimes this batch might be running and enter our maintenance windows.If we see too many network call failures on our end due to our maintenance window.

we save the getUserPagedResultsWithUrl into file.When our systems are back up we use the saved pagination url to restart the process so that we do not have to reprocess the whole data.

With this new SDK I do not know if this is possible.

@SrihariGanadinni Great info!

You could still do this by using client.getDataStore().getResource("your-href", UserList.class)

You may also want to change your search filter to only return the results from the subset of users you are looking for.

Does this help?

@SrihariGanadinni I'll close this issue, if that doesn't help, please reopen!

I started to work on it ,seems like there is no difference ,unless I am missing something,can you provide me an example?

1. UserList users = client.listUsers(null, "status eq "ACTIVE"", null, null, null);
2. UserList users = client.getDataStore().getResource("Org url with filter",UserList.class)

Are you suggesting that I execute the first step and then pull the getnexturl from the userlist and then use the second step to getdatastore to get the userlistdata?

Sort of,
You could keep track of an index as you loop through and set the after query param if you are forced to retry.

I am trying out the solution that was provided it keeps giving com.okta.sdk.resource.ResourceException: HTTP 400, Okta E0000031 (Invalid search criteria.),

Works:

DEFAULT_FILTER_CRITERIA = "status eq "ACTIVE"";
UserList users = client.listUsers(null, DEFAULT_FILTER_CRITERIA, null, null, null);

Erroring out:

DEFAULT_FILTER_CRITERIA = "status eq "ACTIVE"&limit=150";
UserList users = client.listUsers(null, DEFAULT_FILTER_CRITERIA, null, null, null);

But if I go to postman and execute the criteria like below it works,unless I am missing something.

Works on Postman:

?filter=status%20eq%20%22ACTIVE%22&limit=3&after={OktaaUserID}

from okta-sdk-java.

Okay,now I understand the filter has been simplified to restrict to what is documented in docs page and anything additional is via getdatastore. Probably documentation in examples would help! :)

Agreed, this discussion is helpful to see some of the use cases that we should add some doc for
