https://educationcenter.us- dev.janraincapture.com
Your Capture domain (also known as a Registration domain) can be found in Console on the Manage Application page.
Examples
Example: Complete traditional registration
This command creates a user account for the user johndoe@example.com using traditional registration (that is, by employing a username and password).

Parameters
All parameters need to be configured as x-www-form-urlencoded body parameters.
Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
---|---|---|---|
client_id | string | ✓ | API client ID used to authenticate the call. This client must be configured with the login_client feature, which gives it permission to use login and registration-based API endpoints. API client permissions may be configured by using the Configuration API. |
flow | string | ✓ | Name of the flow configured with the login experience you want to use. This parameter corresponds to the janrain.settings.capture.flowName JavaScript setting used in JavaScript SDK- based implementations. The default flow provisioned with Registration applications is named the standard flow; if you have multiple flows, you can find a list of valid flow names using the Configuration API. You can omit this parameter if you configure the flow name in the default_flow_name setting for the API client used to make this call. |
flow_version | integer | ✓ | Version number of the flow set in the flow parameter. This parameter corresponds to the janrain.settings.capture.flowVersion JavaScript setting used in JavaScript SDK-based implementations; however, this call will not accept a version of HEAD. Instead, you must specify the version number if you want to use the most recent version. You can find a list of versions for your flow using the Configuration API. This parameter can be omitted if you you configure the flow version in the default_flow_version setting for the API client used to make this call. |
form | string | ✓ | Name of the form to be used for traditional registration. This parameter determines the field names that must be included when submitting this API call. The default form name for traditional registration configured for the standard flow is registrationForm, but you can find a list of valid forms and associated fields for your flow using the Configuration API. This form name corresponds to the name of the JTL tag used for the associated form in JavaScriot SDK-based implementations. |
(form fields) | string | ✓ | Names of any fields configured in your flow with the traditional registration form. Each field must be passed as a separate parameter; you will use the field name as the key and the user input as the value. All fields configured as required in the flow for that form must be included. The default registrationFormconfigured for the standard flow includes emailAddress, newPassword, newPasswordConfirm, firstName, lastName, and displayName as required fields; you can find a list of valid fields for your traditional registration form using the Configuration API. These field names correspond to the name of the JTL tags included inside the associated form in JavaScript SDK-based implementations. |
locale | string | ✓ | Code for the language you want to use for the registration experience. This parameter determines the language for any error messages returned to you and any registration confirmation emails sent to users and corresponds to the janrain.settings.language JavaScript setting used in JavaScript SDK-based implementations. The default locale provisioned with the standard Registration flow is en-US; other locales must be configured in your flow. You can find a list of valid locales for your flow using the Configuration API. |
redirect_uri | string | ✓ | Required for legacy purposes and not used for any functionality in this call. The parameter value must begin with http: or https: and we recommend that this match the URL and protocol of your website. This parameter corresponds to the janrain.settings.capture.redirectUri JavaScript setting used in JavaScript SDK-based implementations. |
response_type | string | Determines whether you receive an access token, an authorization code, or both after a user is successfully registered or authenticated. If omitted, the response type will default to token. This parameter corresponds to the janrain.settings.capture.responseType JavaScript setting used in JavaScript SDK-based implementations. Allowed values are: • code • token • code_and_token |

Successful Response
A successful response return the user profile in the capture_user object along with an access_token or authorization_code depending on the response_type parameter you included in the call.

Error - Invalid Form
The example error response below indicates that the form value is not valid for the flow included in the call. Form names are case sensitive, so registrationform fails if registrationForm is the valid form name.
{
"stat": "error",
"code": 200,
"error_description": "no such form 'registrationform'",
"error": "invalid_argument",
"request_id": "rdfbsavfvzb2sxud"
}
Error - Field Validation Errors
The example error response below indicates that validation failed for some fields configured with the form used in the call. All validation rules for these fields are checked, so you may receive errors for multiple fields and multiple errors on a single field. Validation errors are commonly encountered when a required field is missing, the email address or another unique field is already taken, or the user input doesn't pass the formatting validation applied to a field. The invalid_fields object includes field names mapped to a list of localized error messages from the flow for each validation that failed.
{
"stat": "error",
"code": 390,
"error_description": "some inputs are invalid",
"error": "invalid_form_fields",
"request_id": "eyt2p5thkwch5h2h",
"invalid_fields": {
"displayName": [
"That display name is already taken."
],
"emailAddress": [
"Email address is required."
],
"newPasswordConfirm": [
"Passwords do not match."
]
}
}
Error - Missing Required Parameters
The example error response below indicates that one of the required parameters for the call wasn't included. The error message describes which parameter is missing.
{
"stat": "error",
"code": 100,
"error_description": "missing arguments: flow",
"error": "missing_argument",
"request_id": "uyeem84bmqmnjuu4"
}
Error - Invalid Flow Value
The example error response below indicates that the value provided for one or more of the flow, flow_version, or locale parameters is invalid. Flow versions are unique across environments, so check that the version value included in the call is for the correct environment (that is, your development or production application).
{
"stat": "error",
"code": 500,
"error_description": "could not find a flow named 'standard' with version '12345abc-1234-abcd-1234-12345abcde12' and locale 'en-US'",
"error": "unexpected_error",
"request_id": "murynd7fhpysq6um"
}
Error - Invalid API Client Permissions
The example error response below indicates that the API client used to make the call isn't configured with the login_client feature.
{
"stat": "error",
"code": 403,
"error_description": "This client does not support log in and registration.",
"error": "permission_error",
"request_id": "y3sthb9dey6mv65e"
