Identity (dynamic)

NOTE: This authentication module is available if the Identity Management Base Module is installed.

Credentials

Identity's central user account and password.

Prerequisites

  • The identity exists in the One Identity Manager database.

  • The central user account is entered in the identity main data.

  • The system user password is entered in the identity main data.

  • The configuration data for dynamically determining the system user is defined in the application. Thus, an identity can, for example, be assigned a system user dynamically depending on their department membership.

Set as default

Yes

Single sign-on

No

Front-end login allowed

Yes

Web Portal login allowed

Remarks

If an identity has a main identity or several subidentities, the QER | Person | MasterIdentity | UseMasterForAuthentication configuration parameter controls which identity is used for authentication.

  • If this configuration parameter is set, the identity’s main identity is used for authentication.

  • If this configuration parameter is not set, the identity’s subidentity is used for authentication.

NOTE: Identities that are classified as a security risk are no longer be able to log in to One Identity Manager. To allow login, set the QER | Person | AllowLoginWithSecurityIncident configuration parameter.

The application configuration data is used to find a system user, which is automatically assigned to the identity. The user interface and permissions are loaded through the system user that is dynamically assigned to the logged in identity.

Changes to the data are assigned to the logged in identity.
