We have requirement to create service accounts in bulk directly in Active Directory. We wanted to reconcile all the newly created service accounts with owners in owner tab from Active Directory.

Hi @pmahalle ,

Currently Importing the service account Owners directly from AD (through an import job) is not supported. Enhancement has already been submitted for the same - https://ideas.saviynt.com/ideas/EIC-I-2711

In order to bulk update the owners for the newly imported Service Accounts in Saviynt, you can perform a bulk upload from the Accounts List Page.

The Upload Account option enables you to upload new accounts, associate accounts to new endpoints or add account owners via a CSV file. While uploading account owners, you can add owners, update owners, or delete account owners.

Link for the end to end documentation, steps and sample CSV file can be found at - https://docs.saviyntcloud.com/bundle/EIC-Admin-v2021x/page/Content/Chapter02-Identity-Repository/Upl...

Thanks.

Hi @DaanishJawed ,

Thanks for the response. Yes, we can upload the owner using CSV but that is manual approach I feel.

  • You can’t create bulk service account using EIC
  • Pulling service account owner is not supported currently.

workaround for owners

  • Use accounts property to store owner name
  • Use Sav4Sav connector to map owner to account

Thanks @rushikeshvartak,

But in Sav2Sav also I can not see any mapping for account owner in accountimport XML. Can you provide some sample accountimport xml with account owner mapping.

Regards,

Paddy
