3.3 SPML Web Service

Oracle Identity Manager provides client applications with the Identity Management service, which makes use of the Service Provisioning Markup Language SPML. The SPML Web Service is an interface for inbound SPML-based provisioning requests. SPML has two profiles: the XSD profile and the DSML profile. This release of Oracle Identity Manager makes use of the XSD profile. It provides features for managing references for example, assignment and revocation of role memberships, and role hierarchy changes such as adding or removing parent roles via SPML, resetting user passwords, and disabling and re-enabling user accounts.
