OpenAM Versions¶
This python module should work with the following versions of OpenAM:
- 12.0.0
- 13.0.0
Tests will validate that the module works on these versions. There is no plan yet to update the module so it can also handle older “legacy” versions.
What is working in the current version of this module. The following (json/) endpoints work:
| endpoint | OpenAM 12 | OpenAM 13 |
|---|---|---|
| /authenticate | V | V |
| /users | V | V |
| /groups | V | V |
| /agents | V | V |
| /realms | V | V |
| /dashboard | . | . |

| /conditiontypes | . | . |
| /subjecttypes | . | . |
| /subjectattributes | . | . |
| /decisioncombiners | . | . |
| /subjectattributes | . | . |
V = Works
. = Not working (yet)
The following (xacml/) endpoints work:
| endpoint | OpenAM 12 | OpenAM 13 |
|---|---|---|
| /policies | . | . |
The following (frrest/) endpoints work:

Installation¶
Installation is very simple, execute the following command:
pip install python-openam
Module is installed and can be used.
Example usage¶
The following is a basic example for authenticating and doing an logout on OpenAM:
import openam
am = openam.Openam(openam_url="http://openam.example.com:8080/openam/")
am.authenticate(username="amadmin", password="password_openam")
am.logout()
You’ll have to update the ‘openam_url’ and both the ‘username’ and ‘password’ for your setup.
