Creating Profile / Provisioning Policy

Prerequisite: The Provisioning feature must have already been turned on and set up for your organization.

When SailPoint provisions new accounts to an AWS direct connect source, it uses the attributes on the Create Profile page as instructions or a template for what to include in the account. This page is also referred to as the provisioning policy.

Important
This page describes the configuration of the default Create Profile, however, SailPoint recommends that you work with Services to define a Create Profile specific to your company's needs.

The following generators create required information for a new AWS account. You may need to edit the contents.
