Hi all,
We want to change the “name” attribute of an identity in IdentityIQ. Can we do it directly from the DEBUG page.
What would be the impacts? Is there a recommended way to do it?
Thanks in advance
@rishavghoshacc
Is this a extended named searchable attribute ( not a searchable attribute - not going to a separate column) , if its not searchable attribute , you can do it , eventually, this is something like deleting the existing and creating a new one, you have to take care of migrating the values from existing one to changed one on identities and any corresponding reports or mappings you have with the old one
If its a searchable you have to be more careful as you will end up modifying hbm file , Db columns etc, which is not preferable.
But question here is what the reason driving to change the name of the attribute because this is anyhow backend name and you can just change the display name as per your need if this change is for any reporting or UI purpose
@iamksatish We found out that the name of an identity is incorrect and we are planning to change it. It is the name attribute of the identities that we find for all identities. So just wanted to know the impact of changing through DEBUG
Hi @rishavghoshacc Have you done? I have tried directly editing in the UI page of identity mappings, after setting " Advance options > edit mode>Permanent,
Your change will be recorded(can be audited) in the sailpoint if you have done that way. For a single identity this method will be feasible
I think correct me if i was wrong
Okay, your question was confusing, you wanted to change the name of identity ( not the attribute’s name) basically value of the attribute
Please don’t change name using debug page, because there can be several references in other tables, try to use IIQ console command but test this in lower first because this may still loose Audit Events and other references
