Creating, editing, and deleting adaptive cards for attestations

One Identity Manager provides adaptive cards for requesting attestation in German and English. These can be displayed in the Manager. You can create your own templates for adaptive cards, for example to make changes to the content or to provide adaptive cards in other languages. The recipient's language preferences are taken into account when an adaptive card is generated. If a language cannot be identified or there is no suitable template for the language found, en-US is used as fallback.

To use your own adaptive cards for attestations, configure the ATT_AttestationHelper approve anywhere process accordingly.

Deploying and evaluating adaptive cards for attestations

If an attestor is found in an approval step and this approval step has a mail template allocated to it, the ATT_AttestationHelper approve anywhere process is run. The process is generated if the following conditions are fulfilled:

  • The attestor is registered as the recipient in Starling Cloud Assistant.

  • A default email address is stored for the attestor.

  • The QER | Person | Starling | UseApprovalAnywhere configuration parameter is set.

  • An expiry date is entered in the QER | Person | Starling | UseApprovalAnywhere | SecondsToExpire configuration parameter.

  • The QER | Attestation | MailTemplateIdents | RequestApproverByCollection configuration parameter is not set.

    - OR -

    Always send notification of pending attestations is set on the attestation policy.

The process calls the ATT_CloudAssistant_CreateMessage_AttestationHelper script passing to it the name and UID of the adaptive card to send. The script creates the adaptive card from the JSON template for adaptive cards and the data in the attestation case and then sends it to the attestor. The QER_CloudAssistant_CheckMessage_AttestationHelper script checks if the attestor has sent a response, evaluates the response and updates the attestation case according to the approval decision.

NOTE: If you want to use your own adaptive cards template, check the ATT_CloudAssistant_CreateMessage_AttestationHelper, ATT_CloudAssistant_CreateData_AttestationHelper, and ATT_CloudAssistant_CheckMessage_AttestationHelper scripts and adjust them if necessary to reflect content changes in the template. For more information about overriding scripts, see the One Identity Manager Configuration Guide.
