Anaconda Cloud User and Token Management with API (Anaconda Pro/Business)#

Manually onboarding individual team members through the Anaconda Cloud graphical user interface (GUI) can be time consuming. For large teams, Anaconda recommends using API calls for a streamlined process.

The Anaconda Cloud API provides various calls to enable you to add users to an Anaconda Cloud organization and change their seat and token permissions. You must be an admin of an Anaconda Cloud organization with an active paid subscription to use these API calls.

You can use API interfaces, such as Insomnia, Postman, or FastAPI, to work with these API calls, or create a script to run through a list of users that need to be added to your organization.

Note

Import the provided Insomnia or Postman collections for a quickstart of the process. The Postman zip file also contains an environment template.

This documentation outlines the endpoints and request and response variables for each API call you might need during this process.

Authenticating to the API#

The Anaconda Cloud API uses OAuth2 standard authentication with an organization admin’s anaconda.cloud username and password.

Create organization app#

Creating organization apps allows the admin user to specify credentials for a specific machine or machines (like a build server or other machine for pipeline automation) and manage those machines in a similar capacity to a user. This organization app can then allow the other API calls to be made directly to the organization the machine user is a part of. If you’d like apps for different environments or machines, you can create multiple apps per organization. Once an organization app is created, use its credentials to add other users via the API with the calls described below.
