    The selected attribute with the updated value is displayed in the Select attribute table.

  1. Repeat step 5 and step 6 to select and update more attributes, and then click Next.

    The Preview tab | Operation Summary section displays the summary of the selected attributes with the new values to be updated after the bulk operation is performed. To export the details, click Export as CSV.

  1. Click Finish, to complete the bulk operation on the selected attributes for the multiple users.

Active Roles service account minimum permissions

As Active Roles performs operations on objects on behalf of delegated users, the Active Roles service account which is used to manage the Active Directory domain requires adequate permissions. One Identity recommends to manage the domain using an account which is a member of the Domain Admins role group. If this configuration is not used, then guidance and documentation provided by One Identity may not be relevant.

Specify separate accounts for service and for managing the domain to separate the tasks performed by the service account from domain management. In this configuration scenario, the service account can be configured to run with the minimum permissions specified below, but the proxy account should be a member of the Domain Admins role group to stay within the One Identity Active Roles support model.

The service account credential has five main roles:

  • Access to the Administration Service computer

  • Service publication in Active Directory

  • All script modules are executed under the security context of the Active Roles Service Account

  • Connecting to the Microsoft SQL database

  • Synchronizing native permissions to Active Directory, if Active Roles is configured

Access to the Administration Service computer

The service account must be a member of the Administrators group on the computer running the Administration Service.

Service publication in Active Directory

The Administration Service attempts to publish itself in the Active Directory. This enables Active Roles clients to automatically discover the Administration Service. This functionality is non-critical and if permissions are not granted, this will not prevent the service from functioning as expected, instead Active Roles clients won't automatically discover the Active Roles Administration Service. They will still be able to connect if the service name or IP address is available. Service publication requires that the service account have the following permissions on the Aelita sub-container of the System container in the domain of the computer running the Administration Service:

  • Create Container Objects

  • Create serviceConnectionPoint Objects

  • Delete the serviceConnectionPoint objects in the System container

  • Write permission for the keywords attribute of the serviceConnectionPoint objects in the System container

Along with these permissions, the service account (or the override account, if specified), must have these permissions on the Aelita sub-container of the System container in every managed domain. If an account has the domain administrator rights, then it has the required permissions by default. Otherwise, provide the permissions to the account by using the ADSI Edit console. The following instructions apply to the ADSI Edit console that ships with Windows Server 2016, Windows Server 2019, or Windows Server 2022.

To grant permissions for Administration Service publication in Active Directory

  1. Open the ADSI Edit console and connect to the Domain naming context.

  2. In the console tree, expand the System container, right-click the Aelita subcontainer, and then click Properties. If the Aelita container does not exist, create it: right-click System, point to New, click Object, and then, in the Create Object wizard, select the Container class and specify Aelita for the cn value.

  3. On the Security tab in the Properties dialog box, click Advanced.

  4. On the Permissions tab in the Advanced Security Settings dialog box, click Add.

  5. On the Permission Entry page, configure the permission entry:

    • Click the Select a principal link, and select the desired account.

    • Verify that the Type box indicates Allow.

    • Verify that the Applies onto box indicates This object and all descendant objects.

    • In the Permissions area, select the Create container objects and Create serviceConnectionPoint objects check boxes.

    • Click OK

  6. Click OK to close the Advanced Security Settings dialog box, and then click OK to close the Properties dialog box.

All script modules are executed under the security context of the Active Roles Service Account

The permissions needed by custom scripts will vary according to the needs of the scripts, and ideally should be reviewed on a case-by-case basis as a Best Practise security model.

Connecting to the Microsoft SQL database

In some configurations, assigning these permissions to the service account are optional, as a SQL Authentication credential may also be specified and the necessary permissions then be assigned to that SQL Authentication credential. For more information on the necessary SQL Server permissions, see SQL Server Permissions topic in the Active Roles Quick Start Guide.

Synchronizing native permissions to Active Directory

The service account must have the Read Permissions and Modify Permissions rights on the Active Directory objects and containers where it is desired to use the Active Roles security synchronization feature.
