columnsToSearch

The columnsToSearch body parameter is used to return accounts meeting one or more conditions. Each condition specifies a property with a specific value to search. For example, to return a list of accounts with belonging to the “DevDomain1” domain that are currently locked out, the value for columnsToSearch would be set to that shown below.

"%[[][[]%<Conditions><Condition PropertyName=\"NetBiosName\" SearchValue=\"Docs-tracking\" Operator=\"EqualTo\" QuerySuffix=\" AND \" StartGroupString=\"\" EndGroupString=\"\" Index=\"0\" SearchType=\"String\"/><Condition PropertyName=\"LockedOut\" SearchValue=\"true\" Operator=\"EqualTo\" QuerySuffix=\"\" StartGroupString=\"\" EndGroupString=\"\" Index=\"1\" SearchType=\"Boolean\"/></Conditions>"

Remarks

In the above example, columnsToSearch contains two search conditions. The API returns accounts matching both conditions. Each condition includes the PropertyName to search, the SearchValue to search for, an Equality Operator, a QuerySuffix and a SearchType for the relevant data type.

Search Examples

The below examples demonstrate how to use IncludedProperties, parameters, and conditions in columnsToSearch to query the API for a list of groups matching the search conditions. Attributes returned for each record are set by the properties specified in IncludedProperties.

1️⃣ Set the ReferencePersonID parameter to the GUID of an EmpowerID Person and the IsHighSecurityGroup parameter to 1 to return a list of high security groups where the reference person has a linked user account.

        "IsAccountIDMember": null,
        "textToSearch": "AdvancedSearch",
        "columnsToSearch": "%[[][[]%<Conditions />",
        "pageLength": 25,
        "resourceTags": null,
        "start": 0,
        "totalCount": null
    }
}

3️⃣ Use columnsToSearch to return mail-enabled groups. Note the PropertyName for the search condition is set to IsMailEnabled, SearchValue is set to True, the Operator is set to EqualTo and the SearchType is Boolean.

{
    "IncludedProperties": [        
        "LogonName",
        "NetBiosName",
        "FriendlyName",      
        "AccountOrganizationStatusFriendlyName",
        "AccountUsageTypeFriendlyName",       
        "ResourceID",
        "AccountID",
        "Name",
        "Description",
        "CreatedDate",
        "ExpiresOn",       
        "AccountStoreFriendlyName",       
    ],
    "Parameters": {
        "AccountStoreID": null,
        "SecurityBoundaryID": null,
        "SecurityBoundaryTypeID": null,         
        "AccountTypeID": null,
        "ShowSystemAccountsOnly": null,
        "ShowSystemBuiltInAccountsOnly": null,
        "AccountUsageTypeID": null,
        "IsOrphan": null,

        "textToSearch":"AdvancedSearch",
        "pageLength": 50,
        "resourceTags": null,
        "start": 0,
        "totalCount": null,
        "columnsToSearch": "%[[][[]%<Conditions><Condition PropertyName="IsMailEnabled" SearchValue="true" Operator="EqualTo" QuerySuffix="" 
                            StartGroupString="" EndGroupString="" Index="0" SearchType="Boolean"/></Conditions>"
    }
}

4️⃣ Set the AccountMemberID parameter to the GUID of a specific user account and the IsAccountIDMember parameter to true to return groups where that account is a member.

{
    "IncludedProperties": [        
        "LogonName",
        "NetBiosName",
        "FriendlyName",

        "OwnerPersonGUID": null,
        "AzGlobalFunctions": null,
        "ProtectedApplicationResourceID": null,
        "AccountMemberID": "0EC3DE4D-DDD7-4B2E-A104-52C1ECE422F8",
        "IsAccountIDMember": true,
        "textToSearch": "AdvancedSearch",
        "columnsToSearch": "%[[][[]%<Conditions />",
        "pageLength": 25,

        "start": 0,
        "totalCount": null
    }
}

SearchTerms

Each identity object in the EmpowerID Identity Warehouse has a SearchTerms property with a specific set of search values that can used to return all objects matching those values. For groups, SearchTerms encompass the Name, FriendlyName, Email, EmpowerIDName, EmpowerIDFriendlyName, LogonName, NetBiosName, FQN, DistinguishedName, and Description properties. When used, the API returns all groups where the specified search value finds a match in any of those properties. For example, if the search value is set to “Doc”, the API would return all the following groups

Any group with a match in the name
Any group with a match in the friendly name
Any group with a match in the email address
Any group with a match in the EmpowerID name
Any group with a match in the EmpowerID friendly name
Any group with a match in the logon name
Any group with a match in the Net BIOS name
Any group with a match in the FQN
Any group with a match in the Distinguished Name
Any group with a match in the description

The following examples illustrate how to use SearchTerms to return a subset of groups:

1️⃣ Use SearchTerms to return the logon name, Net BIOS name, friendly name, description, group type name, distinguished name, and group ID for groups where the search value is set to "SAP"

        "LogonName",
