Issue with get users admin endpoint for users with "/" in their username
We've got a number of users in our organisation with "/" in their usernames. They where created through the api.
ex: username test/test
When I try to make a call to https://((organisation))}/api/v1/users/((username))
Result :
{
"errorCode": "E0000022",
"errorSummary": "The endpoint does not support the provided HTTP method",
"errorLink": "E0000022",
"errorId": "oaezTnopcZ1QQ-PGbzeakovZw",
"errorCauses": []
}
Which is to be expected given the slash in the name. URI encoding the username to test%2Ftest was expected to provide a better result but that ends up in a 404
How do we handle users with "/" in their usersnames through the API?
Thank you for choosing Okta support.
Unfortunately, there is no solution for the issue of handling users with a "/" through the API.
My suggestion is to open a case with Okta support so that this issue can be researched and worked properly.
