Account and Entitlement Aggregation
In order to securely communicate with your organization's systems, SailPoint uses Virtual Appliances (VAs) to connect your IdentityNow cloud platform and on-premise applications. A VA is a Linux-based virtual machine that connects to your sources and apps using SailPoint APIs, connectors, and integrations.
Note
Cloud applications are considered "on-premise" because they are deployed from private clouds reserved for use only by your organization.
The following steps should be accomplished:
- Create a VA cluster. This is done in order to associate our VA with your organization. At least one VA should exist within a VA Cluster.
- Create a source in IdentityNow to aggregate Accounts and Entitlements from either Active Directory or Azure Active Directory.
- Create an Identity Collector in Data Access Security and connect it to the relevant source in IdentityNow.
- In IdentityNow, manually run aggregation for Accounts and Entitlements.
