HCP System Management Help
Here’s a sample PUT request that creates a tenant named Finance in the HCP system named hcp.example.com. The tenant definition is in an XML file named FinanceTenant.xml. The initial user account for the tenant has a username of lgreen and a password of start123. These are specified by query parameters. The request is made using a system-level user account that includes the administrator role.
This example assumes the existence of a service plan named Short-Term-Activity.
