About Data Extract

Caution
As of IdentityIQ 8.4p2, Access History and Data Extract are no longer dependent on the ActiveMQ message broker. This applies to both embedded and external ActiveMQ configurations. More information can be found on this blog and this Compass article.

Data Extract allows organizations to periodically extract data from the IdentityIQ database and store it in a format that common business intelligence (BI) tools can use. IdentityIQ administrators create and configure a Data Extract Task, which calls the functionality to extract and transform data and defines the message destination, a queue where data is available to be picked up by BI systems.

Note: Nothing in IdentityIQ consumes the messages from an ActiveMQ message broker, but customer organizations can write their own client to do so.

Administrators can configure criteria for both the extraction and transformation tasks to customize which types of objects are extracted and define which properties of those objects to include.

Data extract also tracks sufficient context to keep a log of the extraction events.

Running Data Extract requires you to complete the following:

1. Configuring Data Extraction

2. Configuring Data Transformation

3. Importing Data Extract and Transform Configurations

4. Provisioning a Data Extract Task Destination Queue

5. Enabling and Configuring Data Extract

6. Setting Up Data Extract Task
