NetIQ IDM - Start workflow from policy and catch error



Those who want to avoid slowness of designer UI, use XML editor for fast delivery of code by providing following xml stub for start workflow :-)



<do-start-workflow id="$local.sub.etp.resource.UserId$" time-out="30000" url="$local.sub.etp.resource.Endpoint$" workflow-id="$workflow-ldap-dn$"> <arg-password> <token-local-variable name="local.sub.etp.resource.Password" /> </arg-password> <arg-dn> <token-local-variable name="lv.user.ldap.DN" /> </arg-dn> <arg-string name="Product"> <token-local-variable name="lv.group.ldap.DN" /> </arg-string> <arg-string name="Accounts"> <token-local-variable name="lv.user.ldap.DN" /> </arg-string> <arg-string name="Subscriptions"> <token-local-variable name="local.sub.ctp.Subscriptions" /> </arg-string> <arg-string name="IssueTicket"> <token-text xml:space="preserve">N/A</token-text> </arg-string> </do-start-workflow>


to catch the error use following condition with local variable  error.do-start-workflow


<do-if> <arg-conditions> <and> <if-local-variable mode="regex" name="error.do-start-workflow" op="equal">.+</if-local-variable> </and> </arg-conditions> <arg-actions> <do-trace-message level="3"> <arg-string> <token-text xml:space="preserve">Workflow Error Detected PLACEHOLDER</token-text> </arg-string> </do-trace-message> </arg-actions> <arg-actions /> </do-if>

Experience writing a Java based DirXML Driver

Based on the customer project, I wrote a DirXML driver which provision users through Novell Identity Manager 3.5.1 to their company intranet portal ( A Plone System). The portal exposed the RESTful API interfaces. So I started looking first at the Novell SOAP driver to see if it fit our needs. But while reading the driver documentation i felt it required too much XSLT knowledge + more customization and testing on the driver. And again it used the Apache HttpClient, Which is more a HttpClient rather then it targets to any specific protocol implementation. So If you could build SOAP messages at your own so it would help you in transporting these message back and forth between IDM and Application. The Novell SOAP driver comes up with two built in configurations "SPML and DSML", but in my case none of them were suitable. I had always wished to write my own DirXML driver at my own, so I thought why not just take this opportunity to fulfill my wish and at the same time get s...

NetIQ IDM - Adding operation-data to subscriber command transformaiton custom commands

Recently i had to execute EOL cmdlets using psexecute though new NetIQ azure ad driver, since this operation is fire and forget in nature, i would like to track whole request and response for my own generated commands from subscriber command transofrmaiton policy, so i solved it by following policy: < do-set-dest-attr-value direct = "true" name = "psexecute" > < arg-association > < token-resolve datastore = "src" > < arg-dn > < token-text xml:space = "preserve" > {userref} </ token-text > </ arg-dn > </ token-resolve > </ arg-association > < arg-value type = "string" > < token-local-variable name = "cmdlet" /> </ arg-value > </ do-set-dest-attr-value > < do-append-xml-element expression = "../modify[@direct]" na...
