General

How do I set up admin credentials?

For all examples on this page the provisioning needs admin credentials to be set up.

Required parameters

## Admin name (Sub admin)

$oxaasadmname = "<brand>.<environment>.xion.oxcs.net" e.g: testbrand.staging.xion.oxcs.net

## Admin password

$oxaasadmpw = <sub_admin_password_plain>

Code snippet

my $oxaascreds = SOAP::Data->type("Credentials")->value(
  \SOAP::Data->value(
   SOAP::Data->name( "login" => "$oxaasadmname" ),
   SOAP::Data->name( "password" => "$oxaasadmpw" )
)
);

How do I retrieve the service definitions?

To be able to use the webservices, you may need to set up the service definitions.

my $OXResellerContextService = SOAP::Lite->ns("http://soap.reseller.admin.openexchange.com") ->proxy( "https://$oxaashost" . "/webservices/OXResellerContextService", ssl_opts => [ SSL_verify_mode => 1 ] );
my $OXResellerUserService = SOAP::Lite->ns("http://soap.reseller.admin.openexchange.com") ->proxy( "https://$oxaashost" . "/webservices/OXResellerUserService", ssl_opts => [ SSL_verify_mode => 1 ] );
my $OXaaSService = SOAP::Lite->ns("http://soap.oxaas.admin.openexchange.com/") ->proxy( "https://$oxaashost" . "/webservices/OXaaSService", ssl_opts => [ SSL_verify_mode => 1 ] );

Context

How do I provision a new context?

When you provision a new context, you will always have to specify a context admin for the new context as well as a maximum amount of quota that will be shared among the users of your context. This quota will be used for attachments of calendar appointments and contacts, e.g. and will not affect the user's unified quota. If you want to learn more about data managed in this storage, please check Data managed in file storage.

Required parameters

## Context name

$ctxname = "<context_name>"  e.g. testbrand.staging.xion.oxcs.net_context1.com

## Admin credentials

How do I set up admin credentials?

## Quota

$quota = <quota_MB> (-1 = unlimited)

## Admin user

User object with at least the following properties:

  • Name (<admname>)
  • Password (<admpass>)
  • Display name (<adm_display_name>)
  • Surname (<adm_sur_name>)
  • Given name (<adm_given_name>)
  • Primary email address (<adm_primaryEmail>)
  • Email address (<adm_email>)

Code snippet

my $context = SOAP::Data->type("Context")->value(
        \SOAP::Data->value(
            SOAP::Data->name( "name"     => $ctxname ),
            SOAP::Data->name( "maxQuota" => $quota ),

            )
        )
);

How do I allow users in a context to change their password?

This is usually not enabled for users because OX is considering password management to be handled by the partner's provisioning or IDM system. Especially flows like 'forgot password' cannot be covered within the OX Cloud solution. The password change offered here is technically only feasible in non-SSO setups and w/o very specific password policies. If the application internal solution turns out not to be sufficient this option must not be given to the users.

How do I provision settings for a context?

Settings can be provisioned when you provision a context or afterwards by calling the change method for a context as described here. On OX Cloud there is only a limited amount of settings available that you can set for your context. You can find a detailed example on how to configure theming here: OX Cloud hands-on theming.

Own Brand configuration

Beginning with version 7.10.5, it is possible to define some settings that used to be applied to every context before also into the own brand. You can now define all so called Configuration Cascade settings or userAttributes globally in your own brand entry.

Retrieve own brand configuration

The following example shows how to retrieve that data using the new SOAP API call getSelfData:

#!/usr/bin/perl -w
 
BEGIN { $ENV{PERL_LWP_SSL_VERIFY_HOSTNAME} = 0 }
 
use strict;
use SOAP::Lite;
use Data::Dumper;

my $soap = SOAP::Lite->ns("http://soap.reseller.admin.openexchange.com")->proxy("https://$oxaashost/webservices/OXResellerService", ssl_opts => [ SSL_verify_mode => 0 ]);
 
my $oxaasadmname = "example.com";
my $oxaasadmpw = "secret";
 
my $creds = SOAP::Data->type("Credentials")->value(
                             \SOAP::Data->value(
                              SOAP::Data->name("login" => $oxaasadmname),
                              SOAP::Data->name("password" => $oxaasadmpw)));
 
 
my $ret = $soap->getSelfData($adminName, $adminId, $creds);
if( $ret->fault() ) {
    print $ret->faultstring()."\n";
} else {
    print Dumper($ret->paramsall);
}

Change own brand configuration


See the example below on how to add or remove settings from your own brand using the new SOAP API method changeSelf:
