PHP Curl list users error

[amits.contentserv]

Hello,

I’m trying to execute below code to retrieve the users list. But I’m getting,
“Bad Request - Your browser sent a request that this server could not understand.” error.

    $sUrl = 'https://[spoiler]dev-258743.okta.com[/spoiler]/api/v1/users?limit=25';

    $request_headers = array();
    $request_headers[] = 'Accept: application/json';
    $request_headers[] = 'Content-Type: application/json';
    $request_headers[] = 'Authorization: SSWS {{APIKEY}}';

    $ch = curl_init($sUrl);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, $request_headers);
    $response_body = curl_exec($ch);

If I execute the CURL from command prompt, it is working.

curl -v GET -H "Accept: application/json" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -H "Authorization: SSWS {{APIKEY}}" "https://[spoiler]dev-258743.okta.com[/spoiler]/api/v1/users?limit=25"

Hi @amits.contentserv

I’ve tried now the following script on my end and it worked without any issues.

<?php
$sUrl = 'https://dragos.okta.com/api/v1/users?limit=25';

$request_headers = array();
$request_headers[] = 'Accept: application/json';
$request_headers[] = 'Content-Type: application/json';
$request_headers[] = 'Authorization: SSWS <REDACTED>';

$ch = curl_init($sUrl);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, $request_headers);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, false);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST, false);
$response_body = curl_exec($ch);

echo $response_body;

Hi @dragos,

Thanks for your answer. Indeed, it is now working.
Though, it wasn’t for some reasons.

Okay, but my root issue is actually different, If I tried to filter the data based on the status, it is returning 1 always.

For example -
Instead
$sUrl = 'https://dev-258743.okta.com/api/v1/users?limit=25';
Use
$sUrl = 'https://dev-258743.okta.com/api/v1/users?filter=status+eq+"ACTIVE"&limit=25';

Can you please help me to resolve?

Hi @amits.contentserv

When using filtering on /api/v1/users endpoint, as mentioned here, the value of filter parameter should to be url encoded instead of escaped.

Regarding the result, can you please confirm if you have other users active in your Okta tenant?

Great! It worked!
Though, I had used urlencode() to whole URL but seems it encoding would require only in parameters.

Thanks again!
