Passing on permissions to child sites

SharePoint roles are defined at site level. There are always roles defined for the root site of a site collection. Child sites can inherit these role definitions. In the same way, roles on the root site of a site collection are also assigned to groups or user accounts. These assignments can inherit child sites. The Unique role definition option specifies whether a site inherits roles from the parent site. The Unique role assignment option specifies whether user accounts and groups are explicitly authorized for a site or whether the role assignments are inherited by the parent website.

Setting up SharePoint site collections and sites

Site collections and sites are simply loaded into the One Identity Manager database through synchronization in the default installation of One Identity Manager. You can add new site collections and site in the One Identity Manager and publish them in the SharePoint target system. To do this, the UID_SPSPrefix and UID_SPSWebTemplate columns are provided for the SPSWeb table as well as predefined scripts and processes.

NOTE: You can use the following scripts and processes to request site collections and sites from the IT Shop. Customize these scripts and processes as required!
Script/Process Description
Script VI_CreateSPSSite Creates a new site collection and the associate root site in the One Identity Manager database. Creates a user account that is entered as site collection administrator or root site author.
Script VI_CreateSPSWeb Creates a new site within a site collection in the One Identity Manager database.
Process SP0_SPWeb_(De-)Provision Creates a new site within a site collection. The process is triggered by the event PROVISION when the site in the One Identity Manager database is not labeled as the root site.
Process SP0_SPSite_(De-)Provision Creates a new site collection in a web application and the associated root site. The process is triggered by the event PROVISION.

The following step are required in additions:

  • Define a requestable product through which the site collection/site is requested from the IT Shop.
  • Define product properties that are mapped to the script parameter (for example web application, prefix, or site template). You must include these product properties when the site collection/site is requested.
  • Create a process for the PersonWantsOrg table that is started when the request is approved (event OrderGranted). This process call the matching script and sets the parameter values with the defined product properties you have defined. Then the site collection/site is added to the One Identity Manager database.
