SharePoint permission policies

On the permission policy overview form, you can view the web application and the user policies to which the permission policy is assigned. All permissions are listed that have been explicitly granted or denied.

To obtain an overview of a permission policy

  1. Select the SharePoint > Permission policies category.
  2. Select the permission policy from the result list.
  3. Select the SharePoint permission policy overview task.

The denied SharePoint permission "Deny write" is displayed. SharePoint groups internally several single permissions together that are only found as single permissions in the SharePoint interface. One Identity Manager maps the SharePoint internal permission. That is why only the permission "Deny write" appears in the One Identity Manager interface. Single permissions are therefore not known to One Identity Manager.

SharePoint user policies

User policies have a dynamic foreign key (column AuthenticationObject) that references the appropriate authentication object. An additional employee can be assigned if the dynamic foreign key references an Active Directory or an LDAP user account.

Each user policy represents an object from an authentication system. This object can be a group or a user.

To edit user policy main data

  1. Select the SharePoint > User accounts category.
  2. Select the SharePoint role in the result list. Select the Change main data task.
  3. Enter the required data on the main data form.
  4. Save the changes.

The following properties are displayed for user polices.

Table 36: Main data for a user policy
Property Description
Display name Display name for the user policy.
User account Specifies whether the user policy's authentication object is a user account.
Login name Login name for the user policy. It is found using a template.
System account Specified whether the user policies in the SharePoint environment operates as a system account.
Employee Employee using the user policy. If an authentication object is assigned, the connected employee is found through the authentication object by using a template. If there is no authentication object assigned, the employee can be assigned manually.

An employee can only be assigned if the User account option is set.

Web application Unique identifier for the web application for which the user policy is setup.
Zone Unique identifier of the SharePoint zone for which the user policy is valid.
Authentication objectClosed Authentication object referencing the user policy. Each user policy represents an object from an authentication system trusted by the SharePoint installation. If this authentication system is managed as a target system in One Identity Manager, the object used for authentication can be saved as the authentication object in the user policy.

The authentication object is assigned during automatic synchronization. If the User account option is set, the following authentication objects can be assigned:

  • Active Directory user accounts
  • LDAP user accounts

If the User account option is disabled, the following authentication objects can be assigned:

  • Active Directory groups
  • LDAP groups
NOTE: When an authentication object assigned to a SharePoint user policy is deleted from the One Identity Manager database, the link to the authentication object is removed from the user policy. Employees assigned to it remain assigned if necessary.
Global user policies

Global user polices are user policies that are valid for all zones. They are mapped in the SharePoint > Hierarchical view > <farm> > Web applications > <web application> > Global user policies category.

Zone-specific user policies

Zone specific user policies are user policies that are valid for a single zone in a web application. They are displayed in the SharePoint > Hierarchical view > <farm> > Web applications > <web application> > Zone specific user policies > <zone> category.

Reports about SharePoint objects

One Identity Manager makes various reports available containing information about the selected base object and its relations to other One Identity Manager database objects. The following reports are available for SharePoint farms.

NOTE: Other sections may be available depending on the which modules are installed.

Overview of all assignments

The Overview of all assignments report is displayed for some objects, such as authorizations, compliance rules, or roles. The report finds all the roles, for example, departments, cost centers, locations, business roles, and IT Shop structures in which there are employees who own the selected base object. In this case, direct as well as indirect base object assignments are included.

Examples:
  • If the report is created for a resource, all roles are determined in which there are employees with this resource.

  • If the report is created for a group or another system entitlement, all roles are determined in which there are employees with this group or system entitlement.

  • If the report is created for a compliance rule, all roles are determined in which there are employees who violate this compliance rule.

  • If the report is created for a department, all roles are determined in which employees of the selected department are also members.

  • If the report is created for a business role, all roles are determined in which employees of the selected business role are also members.
