Only one user is used for administrative tasks by the built in scripts. That user is defined in the ADMIN_EMAIL variable, found in your apigee-env.sh file located in the apigee4/bin subdirectory. If you want to change the user ID that your management scripts use, change that variable.
While only a single user is used for administrative tasks, there can be more than one global sysadmin user. Any user who is a member of the "sysadmin" global user role will have full permissions to all resources. To create a new user, use the following example call (replace values between <> brackets):
> curl -u <ADMIN_USER>:<ADMIN_PASS> http://<MSIP>:<PORT>/v1/users -X POST -H content-type:application/json -d '{"emailId": "testuser@yourdomain.com", "firstName": "test", "lastName": "test", "password": "SecretPassword123!"}'
Once you have created a new global user, add that user to the global sysadmin role with the following example call (replace values between <> brackets):
> curl -u <ADMIN_USER>:<ADMIN_PASS> http://<MSIP>:<PORT>/v1/userroles/sysadmin/users -X POST -d "id=testuser@yourdomain.com"
The new user will have the same permissions as your existing global sysadmin user. If you would like to use that user for administrative scripts, simply update your apigee-env.sh file. To view users assigned to the global sysadmin role, use the following call:
> curl -u <ADMIN_USER>:<ADMIN_PASS> http://<MSIP>:<PORT>/v1/userroles/sysadmin/users
