Leaf User Endpoints
About
To briefly recap the Leaf User overview: a Leaf User is equivalent to the end user of your application (e.g. a grower). A Leaf User provides a way to keep your customers' data organized under your API owner. As a developer, you’ll need to create a Leaf User and connect the provider(s) you wish to integrate your platform with.
All HTTP methods should be prepended by this service's endpoint:
See below the REST resources and their endpoints available in this service.

Create a Leaf User
 POST /users
Creates a Leaf User. You will need to create a Leaf User when linking a provider for the first time.
Request body
The optional externalId property can be informed to identify the Leaf User with an existing user ID, facilitating matching between Leaf and the client application.
Besides the four properties of the example above, once you have created credentials for a provider like John Deere, you can add an entry like the following. Specifying the ID of the credentials object previously created will link it to the Leaf User being created. This will enable you to start querying farm data from the provider. Check the providers credentials endpoints for more details about the credentials object.
