Provisioning Policies

[SDM007]

Hi All,

I am beginner in Sailpoint. I am not getting why we use provisioning policies in application. Can someone please explain with ex?

Hi @SDM007,

The provisioning policy (form) is just a way of telling IdentityIQ what attributes and values need to be provisioned to the application.

As a starter with IdentityIQ it would be a good idea to use the IdentityIQ Documentation site or take the free IdentityIQ Introduction eLearning on SailPoint University.

For Provisioning Policies take a look at the Application Configuration - Provisioning Policies page.

Hey Sachin,

A provisioning policy is a list of fields with names that correspond to an application account attribute name the role/entitlement uses. Provisioning Policies can be used to help complete an access request that has unknown data required for provisioning.

I would recommend going through this document to understand the full process of provisioning ( this also dives into the provisioning policy and its types) 8.3 IdentityIQ Provisioning Guide - Compass
