Sync History tab
The Sync History tab allows you to view and selectively clean up the synchronization history. This is the history of sync workflow runs and object mapping operations. For more information, see Synchronization history.
On the Sync History tab, you can use the following elements:
-
Clean up now: Allows you to selectively clean up sync history entries by specifying the age of the entries that you want to clean up.
-
Schedule cleanup: Allows you to schedule a recurring cleanup operation for the sync history.
-
Sync Workflow History: Allows you to view a list of completed sync workflow runs and the details of objects that participated in a particular sync workflow run.
-
Mapping History: Allows you to view a list of completed map and unmap operations and the details of objects that participated in those operations.
-
Search: Allows you to search the synchronization history for completed creation, deprovision, update, and sync passwords operations. You can search by a number of criteria, such as the target connected data system and object type on which the operation was performed and the time period during which the operation completed.
-
Usage Statistics: Allows you to view usage statistics for each connector i.e. a number of processed objects, sync runs, and so on.
Connections tab
The Connections tab allows you to manage connections between the and the external data systems you want to use for data synchronization operations.
For more information on creating connections to external data systems supported out of the box, see External data systems supported with built-in connectors.
On the Connections tab, you can use the following elements (some of these elements become available only after you create at least one connection):
-
Add connection: Allows you to create a new connection to an external data system.
-
Filter by: Allows you to filter existing connections by the letters or text you type in the text box. The filter applies to the connection names.
-
Sort by: Allows you to sort existing connections by connection name, name of the connector used, or the frequency of usage in sync workflow steps.
-
<Connection Name>: Represents a connection to an external data system. You can click a connection name to view or modify the corresponding connection settings.
-
Connection settings: Allows you to view or modify settings for the connection.
-
Synchronization scope: Allows you to view or modify synchronization scope for the connection.
-
Delete connection: Deletes the connection.
Mapping tab
The Mapping tab allows you to manage mapping pairs and mapping rules for existing connections. To view or modify mapping pairs or rules for a connection, click the name of that connection. For more information on mapping pairs and rules, see Mapping objects.
On the Mapping tab, you can use the following elements (some of these elements become available only after you create at least one connection to an external data system):
-
Filter by: Allows you to filter existing connections by the letters or text you type in the text box. The filter only applies to the connection names.
-
Sort by: Allows you to sort existing connections by connection name, name of the connector used, or the frequency of usage in the sync workflow steps.
-
<Connection Name>: Displays the name of a connection. You can click a connection name to view or modify the mapping settings for the corresponding connection.
When you click a connection name on this tab, you can manage mapping pairs for the connection by using the following elements (some of these elements become available after you create at least one mapping pair for the connection):
-
Add mapping pair: Allows you to specify the types of objects in two connected systems for which you want to create a mapping pair.
-
<ObjectType1> - <ObjectType2>: Represents a mapping pair and displays the object types that belong to the same mapping pair. You can click a mapping pair to view and change the scope of conditions where the object types belonging to that mapping pair will be mapped. To define these conditions, you can create mapping rules.
-
Schedule: Allows you to schedule a recurring map operation for the current pair of objects.
-
Map now: Allows you to manually run the map operation on the current pair of objects.
-
Delete: Deletes the mapping pair on which you click this link.
When you click a mapping pair, you can manage mapping rules for the mapping pair by using the following elements (some of these elements become available only after you create at least one mapping rule for the mapping pair):
-
Map now: Allows you to manually run the map operation on the mapping pair by using the conditions specified in the existing mapping rules.
-
Unmap: Allows you to unmap the objects that were earlier mapped according to the settings specified for the mapping pair.
-
Schedule mapping: Allows you to schedule a recurring map operation for the mapping pair.
-
Add mapping rule: Allows you to create a rule that will define a condition for mapping objects that belong to the mapping pair.
-
Delete rule: Deletes the mapping rule on which you click this link.
-
Move up: Moves the current mapping rule one position up in the list.
-
Move down: Moves the current mapping rule one position down in the list.
Mapping rules are applied in the order they are listed.
Password Sync tab
The Password Sync tab allows you to manage password sync rules to automate password synchronization from a specified Active Directory domain to other connected data systems. For more information, see Automated password synchronization.
On the Password Sync tab, you can use the following elements (some of these elements become available only after you create at least one password sync rule):
-
Add password sync rule: Allows you to create a rule for synchronizing passwords from an Active Directory domain to another connected system.
-
Password sync settings: Allows you to specify how many times you want to retry the password synchronization operation in the event of a failure. Also allows you to type a Windows PowerShell script to generate passwords for the target connected system. For more information, see Using PowerShell script to transform passwords.
-
Delete rule: Deletes the password sync rule on which you click this link.
