Why does import user with Registration fail?

[fusionauth.qhj5e]

I'm creating a Role for the default Application like so, and then trying to import a user:

import {FusionAuthClient} from '@fusionauth/typescript-client';

const applicationId = 'e9fdb985-9173-4e01-9d73-ac2d60d1dc8e';
const subscriberRoleId = '635ef5c8-54c5-4605-ba0f-add6ad1578ce';
const apiKey = '33052c8a-c283-4e96-9d2a-eb1215c69f8f-not-for-prod';
const fusionauthUrl = 'http://localhost:9011';
const fa = new FusionAuthClient(apiKey, fusionauthUrl);

await fa.createApplicationRole(applicationId, subscriberRoleId, { role: {
    id: subscriberRoleId,
    isDefault: false,
    isSuperRole: false,
    name: 'Subscriber',
    description: 'Subscriber'
} });

const importRequest = { users: [user], validateDbConstraints: true };
const result = await fa.importUsers(importRequest);

Importing without user Registrations works fine, but as soon as I add a Registration, I get this error:

fieldErrors: {
      'user.registrations.roles': [
        {
          code: '[invalid]user.registrations.roles',
          message: 'Invalid Application role(s) [635ef5c8-54c5-4605-ba0f-add6ad1578ce (app: ExampleNodeApp)].'
        }
      ]
    },
    generalErrors: []

Here is the user I'm importing in JSON:

{"email":"a@example.com",
"encryptionScheme":"example-wordpress-phpass",
"factor":8,"password":"JFAkQi9rQ3pUTURWN2NjQ2xhUlNoSlB6OHN1V1FkS2M1Lw==",
"salt":"JFAkQi9rQ3pUTURWN2NjQ2xhUlNoSlB6OHN1V1FkS2M1Lw==",
"uniqueUsername":"a",
"username":"a",
"verified":false,
"active":true,
"registrations":[{"applicationId":"e9fdb985-9173-4e01-9d73-ac2d60d1dc8e","roles":["635ef5c8-54c5-4605-ba0f-add6ad1578ce"]}],
"data":{"WordPress_ID":2,"WordPress_user_nicename":"a","WordPress_user_registered":"2024-02-21 10:52:53","WordPress_display_name":"a","WordPress_nickname":"a","WordPress_wp_capabilities":{"subscriber":true},"WordPress_default_password_nag":"1"}}

What must I change in my import user to get this to work please? The applicationId is correct and the roleId, I've checked in the web interface.

@fusionauth-qhj5e I am checking with the team if you indeed should be able to send in the Id for the role as you are in the example. For now you should be able to add Subscriber which is the name of your new role.

Here is a full example.

app.get('/registration', async (req, res, next) => {

  let returnResult;
  try {
    const applicationId = 'e9fdb985-9173-4e01-9d73-ac2d60d1dc8e';
    const subscriberRoleId = '635ef5c8-54c5-4605-ba0f-add6ad1578ce';
    const apiKey = '33052c8a-c283-4e96-9d2a-eb1215c69f8f-not-for-prod';
    const fusionauthUrl = 'http://localhost:9011';
    const fa = new FusionAuthClient(apiKey, fusionauthUrl);

    // make sure to remove role each time
    await fa.deleteApplicationRole(applicationId,subscriberRoleId);

    // add role
    await fa.createApplicationRole(applicationId, subscriberRoleId, { role: {
        id: subscriberRoleId,
        isDefault: false,
        isSuperRole: false,
        name: 'Subscriber',
        description: 'Subscriber'
    } });

    const user = {
      "email": "a@example.com",
      "encryptionScheme": "phpass-md5", // I updated this from wordpress
      "factor": 8, "password": "JFAkQi9rQ3pUTURWN2NjQ2xhUlNoSlB6OHN1V1FkS2M1Lw==",
      "salt": "JFAkQi9rQ3pUTURWN2NjQ2xhUlNoSlB6OHN1V1FkS2M1Lw==",
      "uniqueUsername": "a",
      "username": "a",
      "verified": false,
      "active": true,
      "registrations": [{ "applicationId": applicationId, "roles": ['Subscriber'] }],
      "data": { "WordPress_ID": 2, "WordPress_user_nicename": "a", "WordPress_user_registered": "2024-02-21 10:52:53", "WordPress_display_name": "a", "WordPress_nickname": "a", "WordPress_wp_capabilities": { "subscriber": true }, "WordPress_default_password_nag": "1" }
    }

    const importRequest = { users: [user], validateDbConstraints: true };
    const result = await fa.importUsers(importRequest);
    console.log("result", result)
    returnResult = result;
  } catch (e) {
    returnResult = JSON.stringify(e);
    console.error("error", returnResult);
  }

  res.json(JSON.stringify({
    returnResult
  }))
});

Please also take note you may need to update your encryptionScheme to phpass-md5 as I believe this is what will come from Wordpress.

@alex-patterson Thanks, this works. I thought the uuid would be better in case I ever change the role name though.

@fusionauth-qhj5e I have brought this up internally, for now we are considering adding a PR to make it more clear for users.
