For more information, refer to [Application Onboarding]() in the SailPoint SaaS documentation. # Dataset Management Dataset Management lets you review the object types a source collects and control how the source aggregates those objects into SailPoint. Use Dataset Management to view and manage resource attributes, datasets and their resources, enable dataset aggregation schedules, perform manual aggregation, and view aggregation history. > [!NOTE] > > Datasets are also available in SailPoint Agentic Fabric. Contact your Customer Success team and refer to [SailPoint Agentic Fabric]() for more information. For more information, refer to [Managing Datasets and Resources]() for datasets, resources, owner correlation, and aggregation. ## Datasets A *dataset* is a named group of one or more related resources that the source aggregates together. When aggregation runs for a dataset, the source collects all resources in that dataset from the managed system in one aggregation job. Activate or deactivate aggregation at the dataset level, not for individual resources. > [!NOTE] > > Each resource belongs to exactly one dataset for that source. The source defines which resources belong to each dataset. You can enable aggregation and review associated resources, but you cannot create or delete datasets or move resources between them. ### Dataset Aggregation Configure aggregation on the **Dataset Aggregations** tab for each dataset. Configure each dataset separately. During aggregation, your owner correlation rules are automatically applied to link machine identities to their human owners. For more information, refer to [Configuring Dataset Aggregations](). ## Resources A resource defines an object type from the managed system. It specifies the kind of object, the attributes the source collects, and how the source identifies and displays each object. Resources form the building blocks of the data model. In the UI, each resource appears under **Dataset Management** \> **Resources** with its schema. A resource does not run aggregation by itself. The dataset that owns the resource collects it during aggregation. For more information, refer to [Managing Resources](). ### Owner Correlation Configure owner correlation on each resource to link aggregated objects to human owners. If you do not configure owner correlation, or if the mapping produces no match, an owner is not assigned. For more information, refer to [Configuring Owner Correlation](). ## Supported Datasets Go to **Dataset Management \> Datasets** on your GitHub Enterprise Server source to view the datasets the connector aggregates. Select a dataset to review its associated resources and configure aggregation. > [!NOTE] > > Configure aggregation for each dataset separately. For more information, refer to [Dataset Aggregation](). The connector aggregates each dataset for every in-scope organization and adds `organization` to every row before combining the results. | Dataset name | Associated resources | Dataset ID | | --- | --- | --- | | GitHub App installations | GitHub App Installation | `github:app-installations` | | GitHub workflows | GitHub Workflow | `github:workflows` | | GitHub Action runs | GitHub Action Run | `github:actions` | | GitHub environment secrets | GitHub Environment Secret | `github:secrets` | The connector aggregates environment secret names only. It does not aggregate secret values. Workflow, action run, and environment secret datasets require GitHub Actions and blob storage on your GitHub Enterprise Server instance. ## Supported Resources A resource represents a type of object the connector collects from GitHub Enterprise Server, such as app installations, workflows, action runs, or environment secrets. Each resource defines the attributes the connector collects for that object type and how SailPoint displays each object. For more information, refer to [Managing Resources](). > [!NOTE] > > When you enable dataset aggregation for a selected dataset, all resources in that dataset are collected at once. Activate or deactivate aggregation at the dataset level, not for individual resources. Go to **Dataset Management** \> **Resources** on your GitHub Enterprise Server source to view each object type the connector aggregates. Select a resource to review its schema on the **Schema** tab. The connector supports the following organization-qualified resources: | Resource name | Resource type | Dataset ID | | --- | --- | --- | | GitHub App Installation | Account | `github:app-installations` | | GitHub Workflow | Application | `github:workflows` | | GitHub Action Run | Application | `github:actions` | | GitHub Environment Secret | Credential | `github:secrets` | ## GitHub App Installation Attributes Every row identifies its source organization. | Attribute | Type | Description | | --- | --- | --- | | id | string | Unique identifier of the GitHub App installation. | | name | string | Application slug associated with the installation. | | app\_id | string | GitHub App ID. | | owner | string list | Human GitHub logins associated with the installation. | | permissions | string list | Installation permissions represented as `scope:access` pairs. | | repository\_selection | string | Repository access scope for the installation. | | target\_type | string | Installation target type. | | created\_at | string | Date and time the installation was created. | | updated\_at | string | Date and time the installation was last updated. | | suspended | string | Indicates whether the installation is suspended. | | suspended\_at | string | Date and time the installation was suspended. | | organization | string | Organization login associated with this row. | ## GitHub Workflow Attributes Every row identifies its source organization. | Attribute | Type | Description | | --- | --- | --- | | id | string | Unique workflow identifier. | | node\_id | string | Global GitHub node identifier. | | name | string | Workflow name. | | owner | string list | Human GitHub logins accountable for the workflow file. | | repository | string | Repository name. | | repository\_full\_name | string | Repository name in `owner/repo` format. | | workflow\_id | string | Numeric GitHub workflow identifier. | | path | string | Workflow file path in the repository. | | state | string | Current workflow state. | | html\_url | string | URL of the workflow definition. | | created\_at | string | Date and time the workflow was created. | | updated\_at | string | Date and time the workflow was last updated. | | organization | string | Organization login associated with this row. | ## GitHub Action Run Attributes Every row identifies its source organization. | Attribute | Type | Description | | --- | --- | --- | | id | string | Unique workflow run identifier. | | name | string | Workflow run title. | | node\_id | string | Global GitHub node identifier. | | status | string | Current workflow run status. | | head\_branch | string | Branch associated with the run. | | actor | string | Login of the user who created the run. | | triggering\_actor | string | Login of the user who triggered the run. | | event | string | GitHub event that triggered the run. | | run\_number | string | Sequential workflow counter. | | workflow\_id | string | Parent workflow identifier. | | workflow | string | Parent workflow label used for correlation. | | check\_suite\_id | string | Associated check suite identifier. | | repository | string | Repository name in `owner/repo` format. | | owner | string list | Human GitHub logins accountable for the run. | | created\_at | string | Date and time the run was created. | | updated\_at | string | Date and time the run was last updated. | | organization | string | Organization login associated with this row. | ## GitHub Environment Secret Attributes The connector aggregates secret names and metadata.

GitHub Enterprise Server is a self-hosted GitHub product that runs on your infrastructure. The connector aggregates accounts, entitlements, and non-human identities from the organizations governed by your GitHub App. > [!NOTE] > > To view the latest features, enhancements, and fixes for all SaaS connectors, refer to the [SaaS Release Notes]() page. ## Supported Features The GitHub Enterprise Server connector supports the following features: #### Account Management - Test connection. - Account aggregation. The connector merges organization members with the same GitHub `login`. - Account creation through organization invitations. - Adding and removing team membership. #### Entitlement Management - Team, organization role, and repository entitlement aggregation. - Access certifications for entitlements connected to accounts. #### Machine Identity Aggregation - Dataset 2.0 aggregation for GitHub App installations, workflows, action runs, and environment secret names. ## Supported Versions The connector supports self-hosted GitHub Enterprise Server 3.21 and later. ## Prerequisites Before you configure the connector, prepare your virtual appliance and GitHub App. Configure at least one virtual appliance cluster and successfully test the connection. Refer to the [Virtual Appliance Reference Guide]() for more information. ### GitHub App **To prepare GitHub Enterprise Server:** 1. Confirm that your virtual appliance can reach the hostname of your GitHub Enterprise Server 3.21 or later instance. 2. Create a GitHub App on the GitHub Enterprise Server instance. 3. Set the App installation availability to **Any account**. 4. Grant the permissions listed in [Required Permissions](<#required-permissions>). 5. Install the same App on every organization you want to govern. Use the same App ID and PEM private key. ## Required Permissions Grant the following permissions to the GitHub App: ### GitHub App Permissions for User Management | Purpose | GitHub App permission | Level | | --- | --- | --- | | Identity management and provisioning | Organization Members | Write | | Organization invitations and team membership | Administration | Write | ### Permissions Required for Each Resource | Dataset name | Permission | | --- | --- | | **GitHub Apps** | Read permission to Organization - Administrator | | **GitHub Actions** | Read permission to Repository - Actions | | **GitHub Workflows** | Read permission to Repository - Actions | | **Environment Secrets** | Read permission to Repository - Environment | # Provisioning The GitHub Enterprise Server connector supports provisioning, allowing you to create and manage accounts and entitlements in GitHub Enterprise Server directly from SailPoint. **Prerequisite:** Your system is configured for provisioning. When SailPoint provisions new accounts to the source, it uses the attributes on the **Create Account** page as instructions or a template for what to include in the account. This page is also referred to as the *provisioning policy*. When new access is granted on a source where a user does not already have an account, SailPoint automatically includes account creation in the provisioning. This applies whether provisioning is started from an access request or from an automated role or lifecycle state assignment. For direct-connect sources, SailPoint automatically creates the account from this configuration. If the source is not configured as a direct-connect source, SailPoint creates and assigns a provisioning task to the source owner and includes the values for the source owner to use in manually creating the account. > [!IMPORTANT] > > This section describes the default **Create Account** configuration. SailPoint recommends that you work with Services to define a provisioning configuration specific to your company's needs. Be sure to verify large changes to the provisioning policy before implementation. Failure to do so might cause provisioning to fail. ## Default Create Account Attributes | Account Attribute | Generator | Description | | --- | --- | --- | | login | Identity attribute - uid | The GitHub username. | | role | Static `direct_member` | Invitation role. Supported values are `direct_member`, `admin`, and `billing_manager`. | | organization | Required for GitHub Enterprise Server | Target organization login. | | teams | Entitlement | Optional team IDs or slugs for the target organization. | > [!IMPORTANT] > > The provisioning plan must include the target organization. The connector can also parse the organization from a team entitlement in `org/slug` format. Provisioning fails without a target organization. ## Provisioning Accounts 1. Configure the Create Account mappings, including the target organization. 2. Submit the provisioning request. The connector sends an organization invitation with `POST /orgs/{org}/invitations`. 3. Ask the user to accept the invitation. GitHub typically allows 7 days for acceptance. 4. Run account aggregation after acceptance so the connector can aggregate the organization member. ## Updating Team Membership The connector uses the team native identity in `org/slug` format. - Add membership - `PUT /orgs/{org}/teams/{team_slug}/memberships/{username}` with `{"role":"member"}`. - Remove membership - `DELETE /orgs/{org}/teams/{team_slug}/memberships/{username}`. # Schema Reference The application schema is used to configure the objects returned from a connector. > [!NOTE] > > - The **Account Schema** tab is used to define the attributes for each object type in the application being configured. The schema attributes can be defined as **Entitlement** or **Multi-Valued**. Refer to [Managing Source Account Schemas]() for more information. > - The schema attributes that are not present by [default](<#default-account-schema>) must be defined as strings if not specified. The GitHub Enterprise Server connector uses the following default correlation and object configurations. The connector aggregates organization members as accounts. It merges records with the same GitHub login across governed organizations. The connector aggregates teams, organization roles, and repository access as entitlements. ## Default Correlation Configuration Before you aggregate accounts from this source, you can map account attributes with their corresponding identity attributes based on your requirements. You can customize the correlation configuration. Refer to [Assigning Source Accounts to Identities]() for more information. When you first create the GitHub Enterprise Server source, the default correlation mapping is: Map account attributes to identity attributes before you aggregate accounts. Profile email is often empty on GitHub Enterprise Server. The login value is the stable native identity. | Account Attribute | Operation | Identity Attribute | | --- | --- | --- | | email | Equals | email | | name | Equals | name | ## Default Account Schema Each source supports a variety of details, or attributes, about each user who has an account, such as their name, email address, manager name, and location. The set of account attributes each source stores and how they're organized is known as the account's *schema*. To best represent your data, you can configure sources to use an account schema matching the one you use in the external connector. Refer to [Managing Source Account Schemas]() for more information. ### Default Account Attributes The GitHub Enterprise Server connector supports the following default account schema attributes and customer configurable attributes. The attributes must be defined as strings if not specified. The identity and display attribute is `login`. The group attribute is `teams`. Go to **Admin** \> **Connections** \> **Sources**, open your GitHub Enterprise Server source, and select **Account Schema** to review the live schema. | Attribute | Type | Description | | --- | --- | --- | | databaseId | string | Primary key from the GitHub database. | | login | string | Username used to sign in. | | name | string | Public profile name. | | id | string | GitHub global node ID. | | email | string | Publicly visible profile email. | | organizationVerifiedDomainEmails | string list | Verified emails matching organization-verified domains.
