Is there a way to create, modify, and delete use accounts and groups via an API of some sort? We have an in house SSO group, that all users have to log in to. That information is passed over to WebFOCUS and we have all that working, however today we have to manually create all the users and place them in the groups they have rights to manually within WF.

I think you need to turn it on in the Admin Console.

I had tested it via my local copy, which is a default install, and it was there.
