Filter String in Web Services SaaS Connector

Hi All,

Did anyone try filter string for Web Services SaaS connector source? If yes, please let me know if it is working as expected. If it is not working, what is the work around for configuring the filter string?

Thank you.

@Shanmukh check below document you will get some input.Filtering does support in Identitynow for saas connector.

Hi @mkumariaas,

Filter string is not working for web services SaaS connectors.

Hi @Shanmukh

I believe since SAAS connector offers more flexibility to write your own logic for aggregation, it makes sense that we filter out the accounts from our code. I would suggest you create your own key in the source json and then retrieve it in your code and then you can check for the custom filter to filter out the accounts you do not need.

I hope this helps.

@Shanmukh I haven’t tried this with the web service SaaS connector yet, but I did try it with the Workday SaaS connector, and it didn’t work. Later, I found out that the Workday SaaS connector doesn’t support account filters.

Hey @vguleria

Can you provide any documentation or reference for adding the logic to the source JSON and retrieving it in the code?

Thank you.

Hi @Shanmukh

I have not had a chance to work on SAAS connector yet but I did saw in below demo that during the aggregation we return the accounts as a List. You can go through the video and then there i think it should be possible to build custom filter method where you pass the list of accounts retrieved then filter out the required one. You can check the implementation of getAllAccounts method and there you need to apply some own logic to filter out the accounts which are not needed for you.

I hope this will help you. Please keep me posted but soon I will also be starting to build it on my own demo tenant and then i can try to implement this particular requirement and let you know.
