Aggregation Performance Improvement

You can configure the following optional attributes to improve the aggregation performance when using the Google Workspace SaaS connector: 

Use the REST API to configure the following attributes:

The number of the API calls can be reduced at the time of account aggregation by setting the isSkipAlias attribute to true. By default, this attribute value is false which means one API call per user is required to fetch their aliases. This has a greater risk of exhausting the daily limit of API calls and also adversely impacts the account aggregation performance. When the isSkipAlias attribute is set to true, it saves one API call per user, thereby improving the performance of account aggregation and reducing the number of API calls.

Set the attribute value using the following:

  • Key – connector_isSkipAlias

  • Value – true

You can turn off group membership pre-loading if the number of group memberships is greater than or equal to the total number of users in your environment. Pre-loading group memberships means the connector performs account and entitlement aggregation to build a map of group memberships for each account.

Enabling the skipPreloadingMemberships attribute configures the connector to skip group membership pre-loading during account aggregation. By default, the value of skipPreloadingMemberships is false, so the connector pre-loads group membership. To improve account aggregation performance, set the value to false.

Set the attribute value using the following:

  • Key – connector_skipPreloadingMemberships

  • Value – false

Note
If set to true, the connector skips membership pre-loading and instead executes many APIs to bring during account aggregation, thereby reducing the performance and risking the exhaustion of the limit API calls. Sailpoint recommends that you only set this attribute set to true when the number of groups is greater than or equal to the number of users in your environment.
