Features: Mobile SDK

User Management

Access users and groups from different enterprise identity providers like LDAP, MSAD, and others.

The Hard Things Made Easy

If you create an address book app, you don’t want to be managing user and groups objects in identity providers yourself. That would be painful. MAS User and Group Management shields you from this ominous task.

Leverage Industry Standards

The mobile gateway implements SCIM – an HTTP-based, open standard for automating the exchange of user identity information between identity domains.

Does MAS User Management…

  • Let me expose a list of users in an LDAP-based identity provider to an authenticated user?

    Yes

  • Allow an authenticated user to manage group membership in an IDP?

    Yes

  • Support sorting, filtering, and paging?

    Yes

  • Support queries for /users, /groups, /serviceproviderconfig, /schemas, and /resource types?

    Yes

  • Provide secure access to users and groups?

    Yes. Your app connection is secured by the CA Mobile API Gateway, which can be configured with mutual TLS (two-way SSL) to establish client-server trust. And data is secured using these heavy-weight features.

  • Have an API?

    Of course. API

iOS Mobile SDK: User and Group Management

Implementation Highlights

MAS User and Group Management implements the SCIM 2.0 specification. Why SCIM? SCIM emphasizes simplicity of development and integration, while applying existing authentication, authorization, and privacy models.

Code Samples

All of this complexity is abstracted away so your interaction with the iOS Mobile SDK looks simply like this:

Retrieve a user by username:

//Retrieve a MASUser object that matches the given userName
[MASUser getUserByUserName:sampleUserName completion:^(MASUser *user, NSError *error) {

  //your code here            
}];

Retrieve a user by id:

//Retrieve a MASUser object that matches the given objectId
[MASUser getUserByObjectId:sampleUserObjectId completion:^(MASUser *user, NSError *error) {
  
  //your code here            
}];
