Problem

The REST API implementation in ST 5.3.1 and older versions can be misleading, since there are two resources included in its schema: user and users. The API documentation available at

https://X.X.X.X:444/api/v1.3/docs/index.html

is vague and doesn't explain in details the usage of the resources and their differences.

Resolution

Short description and usage:

A POST request to

/accounts/{accountName}/users

will be used to create users for an account entity. Note that in this version of the API only one user per account is allowed.

A POST request to

/accounts/{accountName}/users/{userName}

will be used to update the properties of an existing user of an account entity.

Additional note: The documentation available in ST 5.3.6 has been updated and now covers the usage of the resources.
