Password Requirements and Evaluation - SailPoint Identity Services

You can set requirements that users must follow when creating or editing a password policy.


This is the companion discussion topic for the documentation at https://documentation.sailpoint.com/saas/help/pwd/pwd_policies/pwd_reqs.html

What specifically is a fragment?

For example, if a display name is “John Smith” and the value for “Disallow account ID fragments” > All, are these valid or invalid?

  • “J”
  • “John Smit”
  • “ohn Smi”

Hi @Bianca_B I’m checking with our PM and engineering teams to verify the fragment behavior, and I’ve created SAASDOCS-9020 to update the docs to provide more information. We’ll update this thread once we’ve completed that review. Thank you!

Hi @Bianca_B!

We did some testing and updated the docs to reflect that passwords containing fragments equal to or greater than the Fragment char length are disallowed. I’ve added a few additional examples there as well.

Thank you for helping us improve our docs!
