Need to create system user programmatically

[Nitiks25]

I am trying create a user using Jackrabbit UserManager API ( UserManager (Apache Jackrabbit 2.6.10 API​ ) . Is It possible to create system user using this API, if yes, then how?

Hi, UserManager API does provide a method to create system users. Please refer UserManager ("The Adobe AEM Quickstart and Web Application.") .

Hope this helps!

Which version of AEM are you on? I can see AEM 6.3 uses Apache Jackrabbit version 2.14.4 which has the method to create system users, UserManager (Apache Jackrabbit 2.14.5 API) .

Looks like the method was introduced post Apache Jackrabbit version 2.8.
