EMPTemplates can be assigned automatically to an Epic user account through SecurityMatrix. To achieve this, SeurityMatrix must be imported into One Identity Manager. On subsequent changes to the security matrix, the updates to the matrix must be imported so that the Epic user account to EMPTemplate assignments are updated.
You can import the SeurityMatrix using these methods
The SecurityMatrix for EMPTemplate can be imported into One Identity Manager using a SecurityMatrix csv file.
The csv file is imported into One Identity Manager using a CSV synchronization project.
Setup Security Matrix Synchronization Project
This project provides a CSV synchronization workflow which imports the SecurityMatrixEMPTemplate into One Identity Manager.
EMPTemplate assignments are setup in the file named SecurityMatrixEMPTemplate.csv

After the Security Matrix CSV files has been setup, the synchronization project can be created using the procedure below.
To create the synchronization project
- In the Synchronization Editor, create a new Synchronization Project using the CSV connector.
- Select the SecurityMatrixEMPTemplate csv file.
NOTE: A sample CSV file can be found in the Miscellaneous folder under the EPC module.
- Set the value of the number of lines in header to 1.
- Select the EPCSecurityMatrix as the template and create the csv project.
- Update the project variable UID_EPCROOT with the UID of the EPCRoot object that has been created for Epic Synchronization project.
- The value can be obtained from the One Identity Manager Object Browser by navigating to the EPCRoot table.
- Save changes to database
The SecurityMatrix for EMPTemplate can be populated into the EPCMatrixEMPTemplate table using a custom solution implemented in the customer environment.
There could be scenarios where the customer would prefer alternate sources for security matrix import other than a csv file, for example a direct interface from the Epic Database or a custom application based on their implementation.
The Security Matrix for EMPTemplate once imported could be viewed using One Identity Manager.
To view the imported matrix
- In One Identity Manager and navigate to the Epic connection that was created.
- In the Task menu, click View Security Matrix for EMPTemplate.
A grid is displayed with the EMPTemplate and the corresponding Property values for Identity.
