You need to follow the steps mentioned in the below link to add any service to the cluster. It is a generic solution to add service.

As @sbhat pointed out, your url is incorrect to add component. correct one is below.

curl -u <username>:<password> -i -X POST http://<ambari-server-host>:8080/api/v1/clusters/<cluster-name>/services/<service-name>/components/<...;
Example:
curl -u <username>:<password> -i -X POST http://<ambari-server-host>:8080/api/v1/clusters/c1/services/RANGER/components/RANGER_ADMIN

You need to follow the exact steps mentioned in the above link.

Follow this link, it will help you to install and configure ranger on your cluster,

https://docs.hortonworks.com/HDPDocuments/HDP2/HDP-2.3.4/bk_Ranger_Install_Guide/content/complete_th...

And i do not think other rest api will help you in installing, as the installtion require many thing , including mysql integration with Ranger.

@shi cheng : I see your older post where you mentioned you used the following url to install the component :

[root@bj-rc-dptd-ambari-sr-1-v-test-1 RANGER]# curl --user shicheng:123456 -H "X-Requested-By: ambari" -i -X POST http://localhost:8080/api/v1/clusters/ChorusCluster/RANGER/components/RANGER_ADMIN

I see you are missing /services in your url. The url should be :

[root@bj-rc-dptd-ambari-sr-1-v-test-1 RANGER]# curl --user shicheng:123456 -H "X-Requested-By: ambari" -i -X POST http://localhost:8080/api/v1/clusters/ChorusCluster/services/RANGER/components/RANGER_ADMIN

Hope this helps!
