Working with dynamic roles
Dynamic roles are used to specify role memberships dynamically. Employees, devices, and workdesks are not permanently assigned to a role, just when they fulfill certain conditions. A check is performed regularly to assess which employees (devices or workdesks) fulfill these conditions. The means the role memberships change dynamically. For example, company resources can be assigned dynamically to all employees in a department in this way; if an employee leaves the department they immediately lose the resources assigned to them.
Role memberships through dynamic roles are implemented as indirect, secondary assignments. Therefore secondary assignment of employees, devices, and workdesks to role classes must be permitted. If necessary, further configuration settings need to be made.
Example of dynamic role functionality
All external employees are added to a new dynamic role. These employees should be assigned to a company resource ABC. The dynamic role is initially defined with the following data:
Dynamic role |
External employees |
Description |
All external employees |
Object class |
PERSON |
Condition |
IsExternal = 1 |
Department |
A_1 |
The department A_1 is now assigned the resource ABC. All employees who fulfill the condition at the time the dynamic role was defined are assigned to department A_1 and therefore inherit the resource ABC. Employees who fulfill the condition at a later date, are assigned to department A_1 from that moment. Conversely, employees in department A_1 are removed the moment the are no longer known as external employees by One Identity Manager. The resource ABC is no longer available to those employees assuming they have not been assigned the resource through other channels.

All dynamic role memberships are checked using this schedule and recalculation requests are sent to the DBQueue Processor if necessary. Use the Designer to customize schedules or set up new ones to meet your requirements. For more detailed information, see the One Identity Manager Operational Guide. |
