Automate or schedule PAW Group Synchronization with TM1 database groups

One of our Customer is currently using the local AD groups for security assignation and would like to continue doing so on cloud due to their security policies.

We have used the beta solution of automating User to Group assignation from Local AD to PAW to TM1 Database. We have been able to receive the user group information from via SAML and assign the users to PAW groups. As a last step we still need to click on "synchronize group" in the TM1 database. This adds a manual step in an otherwise completely automated user group assignation that could happen on the AD side.

Could we please either automate or schedule the group synchronization option. Or if possible please share the REST API call to do so.

    This idea is not under consideration. However, part of the IBM Planning Analytics roadmap for 2024 is to introduce a external API for Planning Analytics Workspace. This API can be used to update group members in Workspace environments. Note that TM1 v12 can be used to make API calls from Turbo Integrator processes with the new ExecuteHTTPRequest function. This could be used to leverage an API in Workspace that updates group memberships based on group memberships for the same users in a TM1 database.
