Hi All, We are looking for best approaches for Data migration into IdentityNow. From what I understand, the first step will be to aggregate all our 5 target systems which will lead to all uncorrelated accounts int IDN in each target system. After this we need to create identities for the acco…

Hi, I would suggest the following approach to load your data. Create your authoritative source Create an Identity Profile for the authoritative source. Make sure in Provisioning tab you don’t setup any LCS states to enable/disable accounts and don’t assign any access profiles. You can keep the LC…

Hi @shaileeM I would like to know from where you are migrating data into IDN.

Hi Krishna, The plan is to migrate first from target system, however it seems like its not an advisable step. For our use case, we need to perform some data classification/cleanup before full data migration and hence we wanted to bring over the data first into IDN as uncorrelated accounts and perf…

Hi Sharvari, Thanks a lot. This is very helpful and comprehensive. As I mentioned earlier, we do want to bring over data first time into IDN, get it structured as per Sailpoint connector schema, generate proper report and then load it back properly. Is it possible to wipe out all accounts for a t…

[image] Shailee Mehta: We actually tried /cc/source/reset API with a target source which was deliberately made to fail connection to target system (by changing target source URL), but it didnt work. Was there an error message when using that API, or did it say it was successful but nothing ha…

Running the reset source API just removes the accounts from IDN not affecting anything on actual target source.

I am missing some clarity here. [image] Shailee Mehta: The plan is to migrate first from target system, however it seems like its not an advisable step. What is the Target system here, Active Directory ? Are you working on IdentityNow setup, currently you are not using IdentityNow ? if yes …

Thanks Sharvari. May I check one more thing on the approach you have suggested. Currently, we use Role based provisioning for provisiong target systems. So as per the approach you have described, at #6, we will have accounts of the target 1 without any enttitlements or access profiles/roles. Afte…

I would suggest you don’t create any roles before your initial data load but if you create, keep them in disabled state. When target accounts are loaded, it brings in the associated account entitlements in the source too. But as long as you are not assigning those entitlements to profiles or to rol…

Thanks Sharvari. But the expected end-state is that the entitlements must be assigned to the accounts. We modified the steps accordingly, please see if this is fine - Create your authoritative source Create an Identity Profile for the authoritative source. Make sure in Provisioning tab you don’t …
