Bug description
AMIdentityRepository.authenticate(Callback[]) is not part of public API so can not be used by customers to write a custom authentication node if the provided DataStoreAuthDecisionNode is not sufficient.
How to reproduce the issue
- Try to use the public API provided classes / interfaces to build a custom Authentication Node that performs data store authentication
Expected behaviour
Method should be listed at https://backstage.forgerock.com/docs/am/6/apidocs/com/sun/identity/idm/AMIdentityRepository.html
Current behaviour
Method is not listed at https://backstage.forgerock.com/docs/am/6/apidocs/com/sun/identity/idm/AMIdentityRepository.html
Work around
OPTIONAL - If you have a workaround, please put the details here (remove this text)

/**
* @supported.api

* @param credentials
* Array of callback objects containing information such as
* username and password.
