Hi Aron
Just a quick note to suggest that you put the Home link at the top the page of your HTML documentation as well as the bottom.
Cheers

Hi @robertlapes,

FYI, I’ve opened a JIRA (ticket) for your suggestion, DOCS-234.

As a member of our community, you should be able to add comments to that ticket.

If you have additional suggestions, you’re welcome to post them here, or create your own JIRA.

Thanks,
Mike

I noticed a typo in openIDM installation guide in 1.3.2 under create user in windows

From installation Guide
C:\> curl ^ –cacert self-signed.crt ^ –header “Content-Type: application/json” ^ –header “X-OpenIDM-Username: openidm-admin” ^ –header “X-OpenIDM-Password: openidm-admin” ^ –request POST ^ –data “{ \”userName\”:\”joe\”, \”givenName\”:\”joe\”, \”sn\”:\”smith\”, \”mail\”:\”joe@example.com\”, \”telephoneNumber\”:\”555-123-1234\”, \”password\”:\”TestPassw0rd\”, \”description\”:\”My first user\” \”_id\”:\”joe\” }” ^ https://localhost:8443/openidm/managed/user?_action=create

Corrected one
C:\> curl –cacert self-signed.crt –header “Content-Type: application/json” –header “X-OpenIDM-Username: openidm-admin” –header “X-OpenIDM-Password: openidm-admin” –request POST –data “{ \”userName\”:\”joe\”, \”givenName\”:\”joe\”, \”sn\”:\”smith\”, \”mail\”:\”joe@example.com\”, \”telephoneNumber\”:\”555-123-1234\”, \”password\”:\”TestPassw0rd\”, \”description\”:\”My first user\”, \”_id\”:\”joe\” }” https://localhost:8443/openidm/managed/user?_action=create

Hi,

Thanks for your report on our Windows-based REST call. We wrote them for the Windows command line, and need to update them for PowerShell. I’ve opened OPENIDM-8746 for that purpose, and we’ll backport it appropriately.

(Best I can tell, your report was from the 4.0 version of our documentation).

Thanks,
Mike

Hi,
I followed the “Report documentation feedback” link on top of the documentation which opens an email template addressed to docs@forgerock.com. After submitting I got a delivery failure, saying:

We’re writing to let you know that the group you tried to contact (docs) may not exist, or you may not have permission to post messages to the group.

Cheers, Benedikt
