About Organizational Identity Sources

Organizational Identity Sources allow for the creation of Organizational Identities linked to an external source or "system of record". These sources can include LDAP servers, REST APIs, SQL databases, flat files, and so on. Custom plugins can be written for arbitrary sources.

• View Organizational Identity: Retrieves the current Org Identity operational record used by Registry in normal operations.
• View Organizational Identity Source: Performs a live query against the Org Identity Source backend and retrieves the current data as known to the backend. ie: This is the source's current data.
• View Organizational Identity Source Record: Retrieves the last data retrieved from the backend and used to create or update an Org Identity. ie: This is Registry's copy of the source data.
• Add New Org Identity From Source: Create a new Org Identity based on the Org Identity Source's data. In addition, this will create an Organizational Identity Source Record.
• Resync Org Identity From Source: Update the Org Identity and Organizational Identity Source Record using the latest (current) data available from the Org Identity Source.
• Configuration >> Organizational Identity Sources: Manage the plugins used to define and query one or more Org Identity Sources.

Sync Modes

 When called from Registry Job Shell, Organizational Identity Sources

...

can be configured in the following sync modes:

• Full: Create new Org Identities for any record in the Organizational Identity Source that does not yet have one, and update (or delete, if appropriate) existing records.
• Query: Similar to Enrollment Sources Search mode, query the Organizational Identity Source for any records matching verified email addresses of all Org Identities, looking for new matching records to link. Also update (or delete, if appropriate) existing records.
• Update: Update and delete (if appropriate) records that are already synced to Org Identities.
• Manual: Do not automatically sync records. Currently, manual syncing is only available on an individual record basis. (CO-1309)
