# TransformsAPI
  The purpose of this API is to expose functionality for the manipulation of Transform objects.
Transforms are a form of configurable objects which define an easy way to manipulate attribute data without having
to write code. 

Refer to [Transforms](https://developer.sailpoint.com/docs/extensibility/transforms/) for more information about transforms.
 
All URIs are relative to *https://sailpoint.api.identitynow.com/v3*

Method | HTTP request | Description
------------- | ------------- | -------------
[**create-transform**](#create-transform) | **Post** `/transforms` | Create transform
[**delete-transform**](#delete-transform) | **Delete** `/transforms/{id}` | Delete a transform
[**get-transform**](#get-transform) | **Get** `/transforms/{id}` | Transform by id
[**list-transforms**](#list-transforms) | **Get** `/transforms` | List transforms
[**update-transform**](#update-transform) | **Put** `/transforms/{id}` | Update a transform


## create-transform
Create transform
Creates a new transform object immediately. By default, the internal flag is set to false to indicate that this is a custom transform. Only SailPoint employees have the ability to create a transform with internal set to true. Newly created Transforms can be used in the Identity Profile mappings within the UI.

[API Spec](https://developer.sailpoint.com/docs/api/v3/create-transform)

Other parameters are passed through a pointer to a apiCreateTransformRequest struct via the builder pattern

## delete-transform
Delete a transform
Deletes the transform specified by the given ID. Attempting to delete a transform that is used in one or more Identity Profile mappings will result in an error. If this occurs, you must first remove the transform from all mappings before deleting the transform.

### Path Parameters



### Other Parameters

Other parameters are passed through a pointer to a apiListTransformsRequest struct via the builder pattern


Name | Type | Description  | Notes
------------- | ------------- | ------------- | -------------
 **offset** | **int32** | Offset into the full result set. Usually specified with *limit* to paginate through the results. See [V3 API Standard Collection Parameters](https://developer.sailpoint.com/idn/api/standard-collection-parameters) for more information. | [default to 0]
 **limit** | **int32** | Max number of results to return. See [V3 API Standard Collection Parameters](https://developer.sailpoint.com/idn/api/standard-collection-parameters) for more information. | [default to 250]
 **count** | **bool** | If *true* it will populate the *X-Total-Count* response header with the number of results that would be returned if *limit* and *offset* were ignored.  Since requesting a total count can have a performance impact, it is recommended not to send **count=true** if that value will not be used.  See [V3 API Standard Collection Parameters](https://developer.sailpoint.com/idn/api/standard-collection-parameters) for more information. | [default to false]
 **name** | **string** | Name of the transform to retrieve from the list. |

## update-transform
Update a transform
Replaces the transform specified by the given ID with the transform provided in the request body. Only the "attributes" field is mutable. Attempting to change other properties (ex. "name" and "type") will result in an error.
