Create customer user via web service

[ivicav]

Is it possible to create CustomerUser in external another back end via web service? I have problem with connecting Linux OTRS to MS SQL database (drivers issues). Only option I have now is to insert customer directly to OTRS database but I don't like that idea.

Ih ivicav,

I had the das issue some weeks ago.
Connecting from Linux (MariaDB/MySQL) to a MS SQL Server is not that easy.
I solved it the following way:

Created a user with rights to access via remote and write access to a newly created customer db.
The MS SQL Server creates a view of the needed data and writes it remote on the Linux MariaDB/MySQL.

Maybe this would be a solution for you.

Best regards

I ended up with similar approach. At some point of my existence will try to create web service which will allow me to create users (need to learn Perl first ).
