Managing SailPoint IdentityNow Roles via API and PowerShell

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

Authoring Identities in SailPoint IdentityNow via the API and PowerShell

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”

Deploying a SailPoint IdentityNow Virtual Appliance in Azure

Introduction

The CentOS image that SailPoint provide for the IdentityNow Virtual Appliance that performs integration between ‘Sources’ and IdentityNow is VMWare based. I don’t have any VMWare Infrastructure to run it on and really didn’t want to run up any VMWare environments for this component. All my other infrastructure is in Azure. I’d love to run my VA(s) in Azure too.
In discussions with SailPoint I understand it is simply a case that they haven’t certified their CentOS image on Azure.… [Keep reading] “Deploying a SailPoint IdentityNow Virtual Appliance in Azure”
