[[java-rest-high-security-put-role-mapping]] === Put Role Mapping API [[java-rest-high-security-put-role-mapping-execution]] ==== Execution Creating and updating a role mapping can be performed using the `security().putRoleMapping()` method: ["source","java",subs="attributes,callouts,macros"] -------------------------------------------------- include-tagged::{doc-tests}/SecurityDocumentationIT.java[put-role-mapping-execute] -------------------------------------------------- [[java-rest-high-security-put-role-mapping-response]] ==== Response The returned `PutRoleMappingResponse` contains a single field, `created`. This field serves as an indication if a role mapping was created or if an existing entry was updated. ["source","java",subs="attributes,callouts,macros"] -------------------------------------------------- include-tagged::{doc-tests}/SecurityDocumentationIT.java[put-role-mapping-response] -------------------------------------------------- <1> `created` is a boolean indicating whether the role mapping was created or updated [[java-rest-high-security-put-role-mapping-async]] ==== Asynchronous Execution This request can be executed asynchronously using the `security().putRoleMappingAsync()` method: ["source","java",subs="attributes,callouts,macros"] -------------------------------------------------- include-tagged::{doc-tests}/SecurityDocumentationIT.java[put-role-mapping-execute-async] -------------------------------------------------- <1> The `PutRoleMappingRequest` to execute and the `ActionListener` to use when the execution completes The asynchronous method does not block and returns immediately. Once the request has completed the `ActionListener` is called back using the `onResponse` method if the execution successfully completed or using the `onFailure` method if it failed. A typical listener for a `PutRoleMappingResponse` looks like: ["source","java",subs="attributes,callouts,macros"] -------------------------------------------------- include-tagged::{doc-tests}/SecurityDocumentationIT.java[put-role-mapping-execute-listener] -------------------------------------------------- <1> Called when the execution is successfully completed. The response is provided as an argument <2> Called in case of failure. The raised exception is provided as an argument
