Connections to external data systems

External data systems supported out of the box

This section provides information on working with external data systems supported by One Identity Quick Connect Sync Engine out of the box. For instructions on working with other types of external data systems, see the documentation supplied with the Quick Connect packages that support those data systems.

This section covers:

Working with ActiveRoles Server

To create a connection to ActiveRoles Server, you need to use One Identity Quick Connect Sync Engine in conjunction with a special connector called ActiveRoles Server Connector.

The ActiveRoles Server Connector supports the following One Identity Quick Connect Sync Engine features:

 

Table 6: Supported features

Feature

 

Bidirectional synchronization

Allows you to read and write data in the connected data system.

Yes

Delta processing mode

Allows you to process only the data that has changed in the connected data system since the last synchronization operation, thereby reducing the overall synchronization operation time.

Yes

Password synchronization

Allows you to synchronize user passwords from an Active Directory domain to the connected data system.

Yes

The ActiveRoles Connector supports linked attributes in the Active Directory schema. Linked attributes allow you to associate one object with another object. Linked attributes exist in pairs:

  • Forward link attribute. This is a linked attribute that exists on a source object (example: the member attribute on the Group object). Forward link attributes can be single-valued or multivalued.
  • Back link attribute. This is a linked attribute that can be specified on a target object (example: the memberOf attribute on the User object). Back link attributes are multivalued and they must have a corresponding forward link attribute. Back link attributes are not stored in Active Directory. Rather, they are calculated based on the corresponding forward link attribute each time a query is issued.
