Summary:

The changes in this pull request focus on updating the documentation for group and user management in the Janssen Server. The key changes include reorganizing the content, providing more detailed guidance on using the command-line and REST API for group and user management, and highlighting the available operations and examples.

From an application security perspective, the changes do not introduce any obvious security concerns. The documentation is focused on promoting secure and consistent group and user management practices, which is an important aspect of identity and access management. However, there are a few security considerations that should be kept in mind when implementing these features in a production environment, such as ensuring strong password management, following the principle of least privilege, and implementing robust logging and monitoring mechanisms.

Files Changed:

1. docs/admin/config-guide/scim-config/scim-group-config.md:

   • The title has been changed from "Group Resources" to "Group Management" to better reflect the overall purpose of the section.
   • The content has been reorganized into two main sections: "Use Command-line" and "Use REST API", providing clearer guidance on the different ways to manage groups in the Janssen Server.
   • The "Use Command-line" section has been expanded to provide more detailed information on the various group management operations available, including examples of how to use them.
   • The "Use REST API" section now provides a reference to the Janssen Server Configuration REST API, which can be used for programmatic access to group management functionality.

2. docs/admin/config-guide/scim-config/user-config.md:

   • The document provides detailed information on user management in the Janssen Server, including how to perform CRUD operations using the command-line interface (CLI), text-based user interface (TUI), and the Configuration REST API.
   • The document covers the usage of the Janssen CLI and TUI for various user management operations, such as getting the list of users, creating a new user, updating an existing user, finding a user by ID, and deleting a user.
   • The document mentions that the Janssen Server Configuration REST API provides endpoints for managing and configuring users, and users can refer to the Swagger documentation for more details.
   • While the document does not highlight any specific security concerns, it is important to consider best practices for password management, least privilege, and audit logging when implementing user management functionality in a production environment.

Numbering under this step is not correct. All steps are shown as 1. Still better, Should we break it down into 3 sections having ### level?
