SailPoint-Epic EMP Connection: Aggregating a custom MPI

Identity Security Cloud (ISC) ISC Discussion and Questions
1

Hello,

I am trying to write a custom SailPoint attribute to a custom MPI we have created in Epic via the SailPoint-Epic EMP Connector.

  • Item 20700 (Static, ID Type)
    • USERMPIIDTYPE (Current ‘Create Account’ attribute name)
  • Item 20701 (Identity Attribute, custom)
    • USERMPIID (Current ‘Create Account’ attribute name)

In the attribute sync of course MPI is not written as a default item to write via Aggregation. Would anyone know how to add these following items to the Create Account or Account Schema?

Thank you!

are these attributes are supported by Epic EMP system?

you can add easily this in account schema on click of add new attribute under account schema. In a similar way you can under create account by mapping identity attribute, static or any custom transform.

Currently today these attributes are utilized by our team in Manual Imports. From my understanding the EMP Connector is an API that utilizes the same Import method. Although these specific Epic attributes are not mentioned in the Epic-SailPoint EMP Connection Documentation.

(I apologize if this does not anwser your question.)

For the MPI ID type record in Epic you need to have a descriptor (I IIT 600) set up. The system would match on that name during provisioning.

Example - If your descriptor is “Employee ID” then in create policy you need to provide attribute name as “UserID_Employee ID” to set it on the Emp record.

I was able to add the descriptor to the ID Type for our “Global ID” (Item 128)

The only thing confusing me is, where do I get the precursor for the attribute name?

In your example, you have UserID_Employee ID. For the ‘Employee ID’, that is the ID type descriptor. But where do I get the ‘UserID’?

I understand UserID is the Epic Native attribute name, but where would I get that value to attach my descriptor if I created the ID Type custom?

Please let me know if this makes sense.

ID Name I am Mapping to:

My thought is it would be ‘GlobaIDEMP_Global ID’ but that does not seem to be working on aggregation.

Add “UserID_Global ID” to your Epic Emp account schema and you should be able to aggregate the value of Global ID.
