Yes, what you are seeing is accurate. We do not have a REST API call for registering, but rather, only logging in (authenticating).
Though I am not technical, my gut tells me that this is due to a security protocol.
Anyway, we have a number of other customers that skirt around this very easilty, but that is because they use Single Sign On.
My understanding is that your community is not using Single Sign On today. If you move to Single Sign On, you will then have control of registration (and the registration page, workflow, etc), so you can fall back to using the Lithium "login" REST API call after the user has registered already through your side.
Jake,
Appreciate the wisdom of the Oracle as always! Could you also check with the elder Lithium gods to see if any cleverness that could otherwise get us around this exists on some arcane scroll tucked away on a shelf, or in a bottom drawer of someone's desk?
SSO may be in the cards for us, but I want to leave no stone unturned. :manwink:
Thanks
Mark
