Profile API Docs

The Profile API allows developers to obtain information about their profile or users within their organization.

Use Cases

  • List all accounts within your organization.
  • Get available scopes for your token.
  • Get or update your profile.

How to use the API Docs

Use the interactive documentation to explore the Profile API endpoints. Each request will have a complete description of all the required parameters and it also allows you to instantly try it out in the online console. Code templates are also provided for you to quickly build scripts.

In the interactive explorer, the Client ID and Client Secret has been pre-filled and will allow you to make read-only API requests. These credentials will allow you to get an Access Token with a few simple button clicks, which will be stored for subsequent API requests until the token expires.

Note: The interactive documentation uses read-only credentials and the try it out feature will only work with GET and selected POSTrequests.

Generate an Access Token

In the interactive API explorer, the Access Token is automatically generated using the pre-filled Client ID and Client Secret so you do not need to generate it yourself.

If you want to understand how the Access Token is generated from the Client ID and Client Secret credentials, take a look at the Authentication page.

For detailed instructions on how to use the interactive API documentation (or your own Python script), see the Getting Started page.

Sample Code

Below is an example of how to use the Profile API, without the Python SDK. Please check the Getting Started for instructions using the SDK.

import json
import requests

# create headers for API request (See the OAuth2 overview page for sample code to generate an access token)
access_token = 'eyJhbGciO....bPito5n5Q' # truncated example, generate JWT token separately
bearer_token = 'Bearer ' + access_token

# get your profile (user and org details)
url = 'https://visibility.amp.cisco.com/iroh/profile/whoami'

headers = {
            'Authorization': bearer_token,
            'Content-Type':'application/json',
            'Accept':'application/json'
}

response = requests.get(url, headers=headers)
print(response.text)

if response.status_code == 200:
    # convert the response to a dict object
    response_json = json.loads(response.text)

    # get the user details (remainder values are accessed in the same way)
    user = response_json['user']
    role = user['role']
    scopes = user['scopes']

    # get the org details (remainder values are accessed in the same way)
    org = response_json['org']
    name = org['name']
    address = org['address']
