Step 1: Create User

POST {{apiPath}}/environments/{{envID}}/users

The POST /environments/{{envID}}/users operation adds a new user resource to the specified environment.

New users must be assigned to a population. Run Read all populations to find a population ID.

The request must also set a value for the username attribute. The username value must be unique to an environment, across all populations.

If successful, the response returns a 201 Successfully created message and shows the new user resource's property data.

The request will generate a userID resource that will be used by the request in step 3.

See the User operations data model for full property descriptions.
