Hi ,

I have a REST API whose response looks like below:

{

"unique_id": "ABVd8H-r9fXTQAjYYghAzVxn",

"username": "LVELHO",

"fullname": "VELHO, Lionel Invencao",

"emailaddress": null,

"userdescription": "VELHO, Lionel Invencao",

"password": null,

"alternativeuserid": "",

"activeaccountflag": true,

"temporarydisabledflag": false,

"domains": "FMG",

"logintype": "Automatic",

"timezone": null,

"dashboard": null,

"locality": null,

"roles": [

"BMS Employee Access ",

"FMGL - AOD Schedule",

"FMGL - Case Track - Admin",

"FMGL - Medical",

"FMGL - Workers Comp Officer/Manager"

],

"forceuserpasswordreset": false

}

I have to read the account to entitlement association with this.

Is it possible to seggregate these roles in Saviynt?

Hi Arushi,

The accounts and entitlements can be mapped using the processing type "acctToEntMapping" in acctEntParams This value is specified when the acctEntMapping tag is defined inside the accountParams section. Please find the attached document containing a sample JSON.

Thank you

Hi Vedant,

Is it also possible to import entitlements using this response itself as the application doesnt expose any API exclusively listing the roles?

Hi Arushi,

No, the above response is not in a valid format to import entitlements.

Thank you

Thanks for the response Vedant.

Can the above JSON you provided be used to associate entitlements for inactive accounts as well?

I wish to be able to achieve that as well.

To add to the above, our requirement is to manage all accounts and only 2 roles for the application and the application has not exposed any separate API to import the entitlements.

Would it be possible to be able to do entitlement association with the accounts without importing the entitlements?

NOTE: Entitlements are being created manually from UI.

Hi Arushi,

The accounts and entitlements cannot be mapped if the entitlements are manually created from UI.

Thank you
