Search by attribute

The attributes available for searching are dependent on the type of object being searched. The search drop-down menu lists the attributes that can be selected.

API attributes can be searched

The drop-down menu lists a limited number of attributes that can be searched; however, you can perform an attribute search using the English name of any attribute as it appears in the API (for example, searching on Display Name would be DisplayName: <My Display Name>). Nested attributes can be chained together using a period (.). To see a list of all the attributes, see the API documentation. For more information about the API, see Using the API.

Entering the search string

  1. Click the icon and select the attribute to be searched.

    The selected attribute is added to the search box. For example, if you select Last Name then LastName: is added to the search box.

  2. In the search box, enter the text string after the colon in the attribute label.

    You can specify multiple attributes, repeating these steps to add an additional attribute to the search box. Do not add punctuation marks, such as commas or colons, to separate the different attributes. When multiple attributes are included, all search criteria must be met in order for an object to be included in the results list. In the web client, if conflicting attributes are entered for the same search (for example, both true and false) then the results will expand to show all matches so long as they fit one of those attributes.

    As you type, the list displays items whose selected attributes contain the text that was entered.

    NOTE: The status bar along the bottom of the console shows the number of items returned.

  3. To clear the search criteria, click the button.

    When you clear the search criteria, the original list of objects are displayed.

Exporting data

Throughout the web client, when an Export button appears above a table it indicates that the data appearing in the table can be exported as either a JSON or CSV file.

To export data

  1. Navigate to the page displaying the information to be exported. For example, if you want to export user information in order to see who can log into the product then you would navigate to the Users page.
  2. (Optional) Apply filters or search criteria to the displayed data.
  3. Click the Export button.
  4. On the export dialog, select CSV or JSON. Different information may be available depending on your selection. For example, when the data covers an array of information then the CSV will only report the number of items in the array whereas the JSON will contain the full list. This can be seen when exporting Account Groups data; the CSV will show the number of accounts in a group, but the JSON will show all of the information for all the accounts in a group.
  5. Click Fields to open the Export Fields dialog where you can select which fields to include in the report. The Export Fields dialog will be prepopulated with the selections made during the last export of data from the page.
  6. Click OK to save your selection.
  7. Click Sort By to open the Export Sort Order dialog where you can select the order in which to sort the previously selected fields. This allows you to organize the exported data according to your needs.
    • Add Sort Order: Use this button to add additional fields by which to sort the data.
    • Clear All Sort Orders: Use this button to clear all selected fields.
    • Drag up or down to change the sort order: When you have multiple sort orders, click and hold this icon with your cursor then drag the selected sort order to whichever spot in the list you want.
    • Order By: Use this drop-down to select a field by which to sort the data. Additional drop-downs are added using the Add Sort Order button. The Order By fields will be prepopulated with the selection(s) made during the last export of data from the page.
    • or Change Sort Direction: Clicking this button changes the sort direction for the field. For example, if you have selected FirstName in the Order By drop-down and as the sort direction, your exported data will order the results in alphabetical order based on FirstName.
    • : Clicking this button removes the associated Order By selection.
  8. Click OK to save your selection.
  9. Selecting the Limit Results check box displays the Number of results to include field which is used to limit the number of results that will be included in the exported file. The Number of results to include field will be prepopulated with the selection made during the last export of data from the page.
  10. Click Export.

Home

Click Home to go to the home page. The Home page is tailored to your user rights and permissions. If you are authorized by an entitlement to request, approve, or review access requests, then your Home page gives you a quick view to the access request tasks that need your immediate attention.

Based on your role, the dashboard displays My Requests, Approvals, and Reviews, the number of tasks in each queue, and the status of each task (for example, Available, Denied, Revoked, Pending) as well as whether the task is Due Today.

Additional widgets may also be available. For example: Appliance Resources and Cluster Status.

In addition to tasks based on your role, you can perform the following from the Home page:

  • Customize the information that is displayed on the page. Click Settings.
  • Read the Message of the Day from the Appliance Administrator. For more information, see Message of the Day.

My Requests

If Show Account Availability is enabled you can identify if a privileged account is available or not. Accounts display a warning badge if in use by a request. An account's status is updated immediately after being changed in order to avoid overlapping account requests from multiple users. Hover over the badge to display <X> of <X> accounts in use. Showing account availability requires additional API queries that may impact performance. This toggle is set by the user not an administrator. There is no global toggle.

NOTE: When the policy governing the request has enabled Allow simultaneous access for multiple user access, the request may still be available even though Show Account Request Availability indicates it is in use.

The My Request page has additional settings that can be used to configure the displayed information. Clicking the button will open a panel with the following options:

  • My Request Favorites: Select this option to display a widget showing configured favorite requests.

  • Show Account Request Availability (may impact performance): Select this option to show the account request availability. Depending on the number of requests this may impact performance.
