Identities

The /v1/identities endpoint allows user to retrieve the identities that the user has in the platform. Calling the endpoint without a token will result in only one identity returned: Anonymous. Calling it with token should return multiple identities. There are four different types of identities:

• Anonymous - represents anonymous user
• Authenticated - represents a realm via which the user is authenticated
• Group - represents a group to which a user belongs in a realm
• User - represents the user.

The following HTTP call can used to retrieve the identities:

GET /v1/identities
