Custom Report - On-Demand

Hello,

I need to create a report to be executed by the end user. This means, the link to this report should be located in an accessible place like Launchpad or Dashboard. Also, I don’t see the Create a Report button in the Report page, so I tried to do it by Search but I’m not sure if this report is going to be accessible by end user.

There is a video guide to create Advanced Reporting with APIs (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=grMeG5hShag) but it doesn’t show how to linked into the SailPoint page, so I suppose this is a script only for dev users.

Essentially I’d like to create a report by reading a source with some filters and create a csv file, then make it available to end users. Can you please give some suggestions, if it is possible, to accomplish this task in IdentityNow.

Thanks,
Jio

Hi @Jiovanni ,

Yes, the video demonstrates report generation outside of the tenant. Some tasks in ISC need to be performed externally since we don’t have extensive customizations in place. Could you please clarify what exactly the report should include? If it’s Object Data, we can try using search to retrieve the information.

You may have to use an external application (like Azure Functions, AWS Lambda etc.) called from the workflow. This function should create a csv file, store it in a shared location and return the stored location as a string. This string can be used as a part of email sent to the person launching the workflow

End-user oriented reporting use cases typically fall under the Enterprise Reporting solution stack / discipline, not necessarily directly exposed to end-users from each technology implementation. (Otherwise, every leaf technology / middleware will need to incorporate duplicated reporting capabilities) For example, report data visibility / accessibility / authorization modelling is a big part of that discipline to avoid data leakage, works with DLP technologies…etc

You need to consult internally as to what’s the chosen solution for enterprise reporting within the landscape.

ISC don’t provide custom reporting in OOTB UI expect the 2-3 report which comes ootb . Not sure why it give those report .

You have you use external system for reporting no other go .

we are also looking for the same type of requirement but yes, as of now we don’t have an option to create a custom report.
