Delimited file source use API for provisioning

For one of my applications, we use a delimited file source for aggregating accounts and entitlements. However, for provisioning after access request approval, the requirement is to use an API to provision directly to the application, no manual provisioning or creating ticket.

Is it possible to use API-based provisioning for an application that uses a delimited file source for aggregation? My understanding is that in such cases, only manual provisioning is typically supported. However, I’d like to explore if there are any workarounds or configurations that would allow us to use API-based provisioning instead.

Thanks

You can use this API to create account on Delimited source.

Is the API you’re referring to meant for creating accounts within the SailPoint tenant, or is it for provisioning accounts in the target application? My requirement is to create or update an account in the target application by invoking its APIs after an access request for that account has been approved. The accounts are aggregated using a delimited file connector.

That API will create an account in Delimited Connector. You can use SailPoint Account Create API to create account on only Delimited sources.

Hi @sanumathewipg0207,

Did you check SQL Loader application. This supports provisioning to the target system without generating a Manual work item.

If the application supports API based provisioning, then why to go for delimited connector? We can onboard that application using web services connector.

API suggested by @kdfreeman for account creation for delimited connector can be created within SailPoint but not on target application.

This application doesn’t have api endpoints to read accounts and entitlements. Only option is to use CSV file to aggregate data.

This is something I need to consider if direct api provisioning is not available for a Delimited file source application. Thanks for the suggestion.
