[GeoNetwork-users] Create Groups Using XML Service

GeoNetwork GeoNetwork User
1

Hello,

I am trying to use XML service xml.group.create.update to create a new group
in GN 2.10.2 version. I am using the administrator profile to create the
group and I get 403 Forbidden Issue as response.

The Sample code that I use is given below. Inspite of using admin profile I
get this. Can any one help me on this? Thanks.

      PostMethod post = new PostMethod();
      String user = "admin" + ":" + "admin";
          byte encoding = Base64.encodeBase64(user.getBytes());
          post.setRequestHeader(new Header("Authorization", "Basic " + new
String(encoding)));
          post.setDoAuthentication( true );
        
          URI uri = new
URI("http://localhost:8081/geonetwork/srv/eng/xml.group.create.update",false\);
        post.setURI(uri);
          
      String createGroupsXML = "<?xml version=\"1.0\"
encoding=\"UTF-8\"?><request><id>10</id><name>test
group</name><description>test Demo
group</description>group@anonymised.com</request>";
      post.setRequestEntity(new
StringRequestEntity(createGroupsXML,"application/xml", "UTF8"));
      HttpClient httpClient = new HttpClient();

      httpClient.executeMethod(post);
       
      strAllUsersXML = post.getResponseBodyAsString();

*Regards*

Hello I got this working

I used the Service group.update instead of xml.group.create.update and also
removed the id node from the request XML to create a new group and it
worked. Thanks.
