Creating the Resource Object

Developing Identity Connectors 17-23 3. Create a new Lookup and add Lookup.FF.UM.Configuration as the Code. 4. Set the following attributes as illustrated in Figure 17–4 . ■ Provisioning Attribute Map takes a value of Lookup.FF.UM.ProvAttrMap. This lookup contains the mapping between Oracle Identity Manager fields and identity connector attributes. The mapping is used during provisioning. ■ Reconciliation Attribute Map takes a value of Lookup.FF.UM.ReconAttributeMap. This lookup contains the mapping between Oracle Identity Manager reconciliation fields and identity connector attributes. The mapping is used during reconciliation.

17.2.3 Creating Provisioning Metadata

The following sections should be followed in order to configure Oracle Identity Manager for flat file provisioning. ■ Creating a Process Form ■ Creating Adapters ■ Creating A Process Definition ■ Creating a Provisioning Attribute Mapping Lookup Note: This tutorial focuses on the minimum configurations needed to run an identity connector. 17-24 Oracle Fusion Middleware Developers Guide for Oracle Identity Manager

17.2.3.1 Creating a Process Form

A process form is used as the representation of object attributes on Oracle Identity Manager. This facilitates user input to set object attributes before passed to the connector bundle for an operation. Attributes defined in the process form are not conventions. The form is a way to challenge the attributes that need to be passed to the identity connector. In general, define an attribute for each supported attribute in the identity connector. There should be a field for querying the IT resource that should be associated with the respective IT Resource Type Definition. Variable type of each field should map to the type of the object attribute.

1. Log in to the Oracle Identity Manager Design Console.

2. Click Form Designer under Development Tools.

3. Create a new form with the Table Name UD_FLAT_FIL as illustrated in

Figure 17–5 . Figure 17–5 Form Designer in Design Console 4. Add the attributes defined in the connector schema, as listed in Table 17–1 . Note: It is good practice to have a one to one mapping on the identity connector attributes.
