Implementation​

import io.permit.sdk.openapi.models.UserCreate;
import io.permit.sdk.openapi.models.UserRead;

// optional attributes for attribute-based access control
HashMap<String, Object> userAttributes = new HashMap<>();
userAttributes.put("age", Integer.valueOf(50));
userAttributes.put("fav_color", "red");

UserRead user = permit.api.users.create(
    (new UserCreate("auth0|elon"))
        .withEmail("elonmusk@tesla.com")
        .withFirstName("Elon")
        .withLastName("Musk")
