Identity and Settings Facades

OpenMetadata 2.0 RC1 only. This example performs live writes for identities and live reads for Settings. CI validates it offline against the exact RC1 SDK.

This scenario demonstrates Teams, Users, and the read-only Settings facade. It creates one non-joinable group and one non-admin user, retrieves them during the guarded upsert, converts both to EntityReference values, and reads glossary relation settings and relation types. It prints only counts and safe entity identifiers.

Run

python -m pip install -r requirements-sdk.txt
export OPENMETADATA_HOST=http://localhost:8585/api
export OPENMETADATA_JWT_TOKEN='<token>'
export OPENMETADATA_DEMO_NAMESPACE=demo
export OPENMETADATA_DEMO_USER_EMAIL=demo.user@example.com
python identity-and-settings/identity_and_settings.py

Admin permissions are likely required to create users and teams. These identities remain after the run; no cleanup is included. Full PUT upserts are allowed only when the existing description contains the exact [openmetadata-demo:<namespace>:identity-and-settings] marker.

The script never sets a password, grants admin access, or calls Settings.define_glossary_relation_type(). Credentials are environment-only and are never printed.
