Managing SailPoint IdentityNow Roles via API and PowerShell

11th of October, 2018 / / No Comments 
Update: Oct 2019. IdentityNow Roles can be easily managed using the SailPoint IdentityNow PowerShell Module.

Managing SailPoint IdentityNow Role Groups typically involves leveraging the SailPoint IdentityNow Portal for the creation and on-going management. That’s because the API for Roles is not published or documented.

What happens then if you have many to create, update/manage? How does the IdentityNow Portal use the non-published undocumented API’s to create and manage them? I’ve worked it out and am documenting it here in the interim until the API’s get versioned and published.… [Keep reading] “Managing SailPoint IdentityNow Roles via API and PowerShell”

Managing SailPoint IdentityNow Governance Groups via the API with PowerShell

9th of October, 2018 / / No Comments 
Update: Oct 2019. Governance Groups can be easily managed using the SailPoint IdentityNow PowerShell Module.

In this post I detail the management of SailPoint IdentityNow Governance Groups using the IdentityNow v2 API as the functions associated with Governance Groups is not currently detailed in the v2 API Documentation here (9 Oct 2018).

In order to interact with the v2 API you will need to use Basic Authentication which I detail in this post here.… [Keep reading] “Managing SailPoint IdentityNow Governance Groups via the API with PowerShell”

The details in this post will still work for v1 
& v2 API's.

This post supersedes (see above) my previous posts on leveraging the IdentityNow API’s in relation to API Authentication/Authorization;

Using this Compass document as my guide (which takes a bit of finding) I’ve automated the process of being able to use PowerShell to leverage the non versioned/published API’s.… [Keep reading] “Leveraging v1, v2 and non-Published SailPoint IdentityNow API’s with PowerShell”

Building a Microsoft Identity Manager PowerShell Management Agent for Workday HR

25th of September, 2018 / / No Comments 
Update 29 August 2019 See this post for multi-threading Granfeldt PowerShell Management Agent Imports (with Workday as an example).

Before I even get started with this post, let me state that the integration I describe here is not a standalone solution. Integrating with Workday for any organisation of significant size will require multiple integration points each providing coverage for the scenarios for your implementation. I list a few in this post, but Alexander Filipin has already done an awesome job here.… [Keep reading] “Building a Microsoft Identity Manager PowerShell Management Agent for Workday HR”

Generating Schema.ps1 for the Granfeldt FIM/MIM PowerShell Management Agent

Getting started writing your first Forefront/Microsoft Identity Manager Granfeldt PowerShell Management Agent can be a bit daunting. Before you can do pretty much anything you need to define the schema for the PSMA. Likewise if you have written many, the generation of the schema file often seems to take longer than it should and can be a little tedious when all you want to do is write the logic for the Import and Export scripts.… [Keep reading] “Automate the Generation of a Granfeldt PowerShell Management Agent Schema Definition File”

Authoring Identities in SailPoint IdentityNow via the API and PowerShell

13th of September, 2018 / / No Comments 
Update: Oct 2019. Authoring Identities can be easily performed using the SailPoint IdentityNow PowerShell Module.

Introduction

A key aspect of any Identity Management project is having an Authoritative Source for Identity. Typically this is a Human Resources system. But what about identity types that aren’t in the authoritative source? External Vendors, contingent contractors and identities that are used by End User Computing systems such as Privileged Accounts, Service Accounts, Training Accounts.

Now some Identity Management Solutions allow you to Author identity through their Portals, and provide a nice GUI to create a user/training/service account.… [Keep reading] “Authoring Identities in SailPoint IdentityNow via the API and PowerShell”
