Parent Child Relationship for ADSI endpoint mapping

[sab2]

Hi,

We are working on our ADSI connector. We are adding endpoint mappings for our applications which has many child endpoints.

Since ADSI has multiple AD forests, we are trying to create multiple parents endpoints or we want to make one giant parent endpoint which has all entitlements > 2 parent endpoints (one for each AD forest) > all child endpoints which full under one of the parent endpoints.

Is this possible or does anyone have suggestion on how we can create an environment with two parent endpoints which have multiple child endpoints through the ADSI connector?

Parent Endpoint 1 (all has entitlements for Parent A and Parent B)

^^^

Parent A – Parent B (has parent endpoint 1)

^^

Child Endpoints with Parent A as parent – other endpoints with Parent B as parent.

Or is there a way to exist with Parent A and Parent B as parent endpoints without Parent Endpoint 1 needed to exist?

Thanks you!

Hi @sab2 

We recommend importing all the data into one endpoint and having several child endpoints within the same parent endpoint. 

You will not be able to create 2 parent endpoints under the security system.

Alternatively, if this is a hard requirement, you can consider creating 2 security with 2 connection as below...

SS1: Parent EP1
Child EP1 Filter (Grpups starting with A)
Child EP2 Filter (Grpups starting with B)
Child EP3 Filter (Grpups starting with C)

SS2: Parent EP1
Child EP1 Filter (Grpups starting with D)
Child EP2 Filter (Grpups starting with E)
Child EP3 Filter (Grpups starting with F) and so on...

Please note: In this case, EIC will consider this setup as 2 separate applications
