Searching & Returning all Objects/Users from a SailPoint IdentityNow Source

23rd of November, 2018 / Darren Robinson / No Comments

Update: Oct 2019. Searching Sources can be easily managed using the SailPoint IdentityNow PowerShell Module.

There are times when need to get an extract of all objects on an IdentityNow Source. Just a particular Source, not the object from the Identity Cube with attributes contributed from multiple sources.

I’ll cover how I do that in this post, which in turn also handles paging the results from IdentityNow as the SearchLimit is 2500 objects.

The basis of the logic is;

Define the Source to retrieve objects from
Define the number of results you wish to return per page (maximum is 2500)
Page results until you return the base object for all objects on the Source
Retrieve the Full Object details for each object

The Script

The following script has been written to run in VS Code and provide a Progress bar using the psInlineProgress PowerShell Module available from the PowerShell Gallery and here.… [Keep reading] “Searching & Returning all Objects/Users from a SailPoint IdentityNow Source”

I have been using Search Results Web Part (SRWP) in previous version of SP and it is a convenient way to display results filtered by content type, URL…etc without worrying about user permissions as it is taken care by SP Search.

In SP13 Online I came across a problem where the results returned from SRWP are incorrect when filtered on sites:

Results Preview display correct results – total of 12:

Results displayed on SRWP – total of 10:

This issue is due to “trim duplicates” setting in the web part.… [Keep reading] “Office 365 Sharepoint – Search Results web part returning incorrect results for sites”
