Module netapp_ontap.resources.account

Copyright © 2019 NetApp Inc. All rights reserved.

Overview

This API displays and manages the configuration of scoped user accounts.

Newly created user accounts might need to be updated for many reasons. For example, a user account might need to use a different application or its role might need to be modified. According to a policy, the password or authentication source of a user account might need to be changed, or a user account might need to be locked or deleted from the system. This API allows you to make these changes to user accounts.

Specify the owner UUID and the user account name in the URI path. The owner UUID corresponds to the UUID of the SVM for which the user account has been created and can be obtained from the response body of GET call performed on one of the following APIs: /api/security/accounts for all user accounts /api/security/accounts/?scope=cluster for cluster-scoped user accounts /api/security/accounts/?scope=svm for SVM-scoped accounts /api/security/accounts/?owner.name= for a specific SVM This API response contains the complete URI for each user account that can be used.

Classes

class Account (*args, **kwargs)

Allows interaction with Account objects on the host

Initialize the instance of the resource.

Any keyword arguments are set on the instance as properties. For example, if the class was named 'MyResource', then this statement would be true:

MyResource(name='foo').name == 'foo'

Args

*args
Each positional argument represents a parent key as used in the URL of the object. That is, each value will be used to fill in a segment of the URL which refers to some parent object. The order of these arguments must match the order they are specified in the URL, from left to right.
**kwargs
each entry will have its key set as an attribute name on the instance and its value will be the value of that attribute.
