    • assignNewParentId
      This method can be used in place of [SoftLayer_User_Customer::editObject](/reference/datatypes/$1/#$2) to change the parent user of this user. The new parent must be a user on the same account, and must not be a child of this user. A user is not allowed to change their own parent. If the cascadeFlag is set to false, then an exception will be thrown if the new parent does not have all of the permissions that this user possesses. If the cascadeFlag is set to true, then permissions will be removed from this user and the descendants of this user as necessary so that no children of the parent will have permissions that the parent does not possess. However, setting the cascadeFlag to true will not remove the access all device permissions from this user. The customer portal will need to be used to remove these permissions.

If a user does not has access to the CloudLayer Computing Instance you're attempting remove add then removeVirtualGuestAccess() returns true. Users can assign CloudLayer Computing Instance access to their child users, but not to themselves. An account's master has access to all CloudLayer Computing Instances on their customer account and can set instance access for any of the other users on their account.
    • resetOpenIdConnectLink
      This method will change the IBMid that a SoftLayer user is linked to, if we need to do that for some reason. It will do this by modifying the link to the desired new IBMid. NOTE: This method cannot be used to 'un-link' a SoftLayer user. Once linked, a SoftLayer user can never be un-linked. Also, this method cannot be used to reset the link if the user account is already Bluemix linked. To reset a link for the Bluemix-linked user account, use resetOpenIdConnectLinkUnifiedUserManagementMode.
    • resetOpenIdConnectLinkUnifiedUserManagementMode
      This method will change the IBMid that a SoftLayer master user is linked to, if we need to do that for some reason. It will do this by unlinking the new owner IBMid from its current user association in this account, if there is one (note that the new owner IBMid is not required to already be a member of the IMS account). Then it will modify the existing IBMid link for the master user to use the new owner IBMid-realm IAMid. At this point, if the new owner IBMid isn't already a member of the PaaS account, it will attempt to add it. As a last step, it will call PaaS to modify the owner on that side, if necessary. Only when all those steps are complete, it will commit the IMS-side DB changes. Then, it will clean up the SoftLayer user that was linked to the new owner IBMid (this user became unlinked as the first step in this process). It will also call BSS to delete the old owner IBMid. NOTE: This method cannot be used to 'un-link' a SoftLayer user. Once linked, a SoftLayer user can never be un-linked. Also, this method cannot be used to reset the link if the user account is not Bluemix linked. To reset a link for the user account not linked to Bluemix, use resetOpenIdConnectLink.

    • setDefaultAccount
      An OpenIdConnect identity, for example an IAMid, can be linked or mapped to one or more individual SoftLayer users, but no more than one per account. If an OpenIdConnect identity is mapped to multiple accounts in this manner, one such account should be identified as the default account for that identity. Invoke this only on IBMid-authenticated users.
    • silentlyMigrateUserOpenIdConnect
      As master user, calling this api for the IBMid provider type when there is an existing IBMid for the email on the SL account will silently (without sending an invitation email) create a link for the IBMid. NOTE: If the SoftLayer user is already linked to IBMid, this call will fail. If the IBMid specified by the email of this user, is already used in a link to another user in this account, this call will fail. If there is already an open invitation from this SoftLayer user to this or any IBMid, this call will fail. If there is already an open invitation from some other SoftLayer user in this account to this IBMid, then this call will fail.

    • turnOffMasterUserPermissionCheckMode
      This method allows the master user of an account to undo the designation of this user as an alternate master user. This can not be applied to the true master user of the account. Note that this method, by itself, WILL NOT affect the IAM Policies granted this user. This API is not intended for general customer use. It is intended to be called by IAM, in concert with other actions taken by IAM when the master user / account owner turns off an 'alternate/auxiliary master user / account owner'.
    • turnOnMasterUserPermissionCheckMode
      This method allows the master user of an account to designate this user as an alternate master user. Effectively this means that this user should have 'all the same IMS permissions as a master user'. Note that this method, by itself, WILL NOT affect the IAM Policies granted to this user. This API is not intended for general customer use. It is intended to be called by IAM, in concert with other actions taken by IAM when the master user / account owner designates an 'alternate/auxiliary master user / account owner'.
