Getting Started
The standard Web Portal is part of an internet application which you can use from your internet browser. The prerequisite for this is a correctly configured Web server and a One Identity Manager database configured and populated with user data. Using the standard Web Portal, you can request and cancel products, as well as renew limited requests. Authorized employees can approve requests and cancellations, perform attestations, view rule violations and grant or deny exception approval. Furthermore, you can change the main password and generate statistics.
Depending on your role and level of security, you can use the Web Portal to:
- Request access to resources
- Track the progress of your requests
- Approve or deny requests made by your employees
- Subscribing reports
- Manage rule violations
- View reports and statistics on resources or roles assigned to you or your employees
The standard Web Portal can be used without restrictions if the following guidelines are taken into account.
