Description
SailPoint is making GenAI-powered entitlement descriptions easier to scale by allowing customers to automatically generate descriptions for new and updated entitlements that do not already have one. This helps customers improve entitlement data quality earlier in the source onboarding and update process, without requiring administrators to manually review every blank entitlement description.
This release introduces a new GenAI setting for automatic entitlement description generation. Customers can choose whether to enable the capability, decide which sources should be included or excluded, and rely on the system to write generated descriptions directly to eligible blank entitlements.
Problem
Today, when customers onboard a new source or update entitlements, they either need to manually add entitlement descriptions or rely on whatever descriptions already exist in the source system. In many cases, descriptions are blank or outdated, making it harder for administrators, reviewers, and access decision makers to understand what an entitlement grants.
As adoption of GenAI Descriptions grows, customers need a faster way to apply it across new and changing sources. Embedding automatic generation into the setup flow reduces manual effort and accelerates time to value from day one.
Solution
Customers can enable automatic generation for entitlements with empty descriptions on new and updated sources from GenAI Settings. The setting is off by default, and customers can configure whether it applies to all sources, excludes specific sources, or applies only to selected sources.
When enabled, generated descriptions are automatically written to eligible blank entitlements. Generation runs in the background, and customers can use audit events and product documentation guidance to review what descriptions were generated and written.
Who is affected?
This affects Identity Security Cloud customers who use GenAI Descriptions and want to improve entitlement description coverage during source onboarding or entitlement updates. The primary users are administrators responsible for source onboarding, entitlement management, and access governance data quality.
Action Required
Customers who want to use this capability need to turn on automatic generation in GenAI Settings and configure the sources that should be included or excluded. No action is required for customers who do not want automatic generation; the setting is off by default.
