Custom Connector(Adapter) in IGI 5.2.5

  • 1.  Custom Connector(Adapter) in IGI 5.2.5

    Posted Wed November 25, 2020 11:26 AM
    Hi everyone,

    I want to learn how to integrate custom connector(adapter) in IGI 5.2.5.
    There is an application where user-role relationship is kept in an oracle database and I want to integrate this application to IGI with jdbc connection. I want to provision account and assign/revoke roles/entitlements to/from account via IGI. 
    Although I have read and researched many IGI documents, I could not find any documents that contain how to develop a custom adapter step by step
    Official IGI guide has some information about custom connector(adapter) but this guide only says we can develop custom connector(adapter) but not how we can develop.

    I have done many Oracle identity management integrations before, and now there are many documents on the internet about developing custom connectors. Isn't the same situation valid for IGI?

    Is there any document to involve this information? Or If there is a solution you can show me, can you share it?

    Thanks,
    Best regards.

    Did you download the "IBM Security Identity Adapter Development and Customization Guide" from Passport Advantage ? You can find the instructions via the adapter site : https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/ibm-security-identity-adapters-v7x.
    The guide contains both instructions and sample adapter files.
    Be aware that this is current adapter guide covering both ISIM 6/7 and ISIGI.
    If you haven't developed custom adapter before I would advice you contract IBM professional services or a business partner that has these skills - there are relatively many things to know/learn building a working adapter.
