Plone REST API: how can I manipulate a user on plone by making REST calls on plone?

We want to create a user on plone from my java application, so how can I do this? Passed https://github.com/plone/plone.restapi , but did not get a clear idea.

I want to use a REST client in java that can call plone to create, update, delete, get a user.

So, can I get some example of how to manipulate Plone users from my java application?

There is also access to the Json API, XML-RPC, Plone API (not suitable in our java application), but again, for user manipulations, it will not meet our requirements.

Thank.

plone.restapi is still in the preliminary alpha stage, so not all functions are implemented. Unfortunately, there is no user / group endpoint yet.

If you need one now, I would recommend creating your own using plone.rest. Or it’s even better to create a pull request for plone.restapi, so we can include it in an upcoming release.

I created a function request on a repo where we can track the progress:

UPDATE: I implemented the @users base endpoint:
