The LongJump Platform includes a number of built-in server-side actions. These actions are typically useful for an authenticated site. Common actions for a typical Web Application which supports authentication are listed here, and are used with the Common Parameters.

Considerations
  • Each action is available as a service through a URL and expects certain parameters for a successful execution.
  • Both HTTP GET and HTTP POST are supported for these actions.

Register a New User Create a new Site User Base URL + "/register"
Change Password Change the Site User's password Base URL + "/change_password"
Update Profile Update a User Profile Base URL + "/update_profile"
Validate the Security Question Validate the security question, as part of the Forgot my Password process Base URL + "/validate_security_question"
Reset Password Reset a Site User's password Base URL + "/reset_password"
