Configuration Guide

Common Configuration Concepts

For each Common Concept, there is a dedicated page to understand in details how they can be configured and for what :

  • XML configuration

    All IM configuration can be imported or exported in XML, either through the UI or through API. This page describes the general principles governing this XML representation, and conventions used throughout this Technical documentation.

  • Search Expressions

    Search Expressions are domain-specific language used to search objects (Managed Objects, Reporting collections,…) or express constraints on them. They are composed of Property Expressions (e.g. firstName LIKE 'John*') and Functions combined with Logical Operators (AND, OR, NOT)

  • Rules

    A rule is an extension point of the application to implement custom behavior, for example (validation ....).

  • Scope

    A Scope describes a population of objects (Managed Objects such as Identities, Role Assignments,…). They are used throughout IM configuration to specify on which Data a Configuration Entity operates. For instance, which Objects are accessible through a Feature, or to which Identities a Password Policy applies to.

  • Execution Plan

    Execution Plan allows to configure the scheduling of scheduled tasks.
