PowerShell
You can use the PowerShell Connector Toolkit to create connectors that can provision any Microsoft system, including but not limited to Active Directory, Microsoft SQL, MS Exchange, SharePoint, Office365, and Azure. Any task performed with PowerShell can be executed through connectors based on this toolkit.
The PowerShell Connector Toolkit lets you develop connectors in PowerShell that address the requirements of your Microsoft Windows ecosystem. The framework is included with the .NET RCS server. Note that the framework itself is not a connector.
The Powershell Connector toolkit is built-in to the .NET RCS server.
Connectors created with the PowerShell Connector Toolkit run on the .NET platform and require the installation of a .NET connector server on the Windows system. To install the .NET connector server, refer to Sync identities.
The PowerShell connector combines a command-line shell and scripting language, built on the .NET Framework. For more information, refer to PowerShell Documentation. |

-
(Optional) Apply a conditional update to the mapping.
-
(Optional) Apply a default value to the mapping.
-
Click Save to save the mapping and close the mapping configuration modal.
Apply a transformation script to a mapping
You can apply a transformation script to a mapping to compute a target value using a combination of source values and string manipulations. For example, you may want to combine first name and last name attributes into a single name attribute.
-
Refer to steps 1–4 in Create or edit a mapping.
-
In the mapping configuration modal:
-
Check Apply transformation script.
-
Insert your transformation script into the Transformation Script editor. Refer to these examples:
-
(Optional) To use custom global variables in the script, refer to Define custom global variables for a script.
-
Click Save to save the mapping and close the mapping configuration modal.
-
Source object behavior
The source
object in a transformation script changes depending on what you select from the
drop-down list of sources:
-
If you select a source attribute, such as
source.name
, thesource
object represents just that attribute. For example, to accessname.familyName
you would referencesource.familyName
. -
If you don’t select a source attribute, the
source
object represents the entire identity object and its attributes. For example, to accessname.familyName
you would referencesource.name.familyName
.
Transformation script example 1
source.name ? source.name.familyName : null ;
In this example, the script checks if a value exists for source.name
. If it does, we know
source.name
is an object and familyName
is one of the attributes on that object, so the script
sets the field with the value of source.name.familyName
. Otherwise, the script sets this field
to null
.
Transformation script example 2
source.givenName + ' ' + source.sn ;
In this example, the script sets the field to a combination of the given name and surname, with a space in the middle; for example, "Jane Fergus".
Transformation script example 3a
source.active ? 'active' : 'inactive';
In this example, the script checks if the source.active
property has any value set. If true
,
the script sets this field to the string active
. Otherwise, the script sets the field to inactive
.
Transformation script example 3b
You can configure the previous script slightly differently if you prefer (as described in
Source object behavior). If you select source.active
from the drop-down list of sources,
source.active
is represented as source
in the transformation script. So the transformation
script would be:
source ? 'active' : 'inactive';
Apply a conditional update to a mapping
You can apply a conditional update to a mapping so that the target attribute is only updated when
certain conditions evaluate to true
.
-
Refer to steps 1–4 in Create or edit a mapping.
-
In the mapping configuration modal:
-
Click Show advanced settings.
-
Check Apply conditional update.
-
Choose one of the following ways to conditionally update the attribute:
-
To use filter fields:
-
Make sure Filter is selected.
-
Use the fields to set the conditions that must occur to update the attribute.
For example, if you want to update the attribute only for users in the United States, select "Country" from the list of attributes, select "is" from the list of operators, and enter "United States" in the open text field:
-
-
To use a filter query:
-
Make sure Filter is selected.
-
Click Advanced Editor.
If you build a filter with the filter fields, it is automatically populated as a query filter in the advanced editor. -
In the editor, edit the query filter.
For example, if you want to update the attribute only for users in the United States, enter
/object/country eq "United States"
:
-
-
To use a script:
-
Click Script.
-
In the Conditional Update Script field, modify the script that defines the condition.
For example, if you want to update the attribute only for users in the United States, enter
object.country == "United States"
: -
(Optional) To use custom global variables in the script, refer to Define custom global variables for a script.
-
-
-
Click Save to save the mapping and close the mapping configuration modal.
-
Apply a default value to a mapping
You can apply a default value to a mapping. The default value is applied to a target attribute if
the result of a mapping (including after any transformation script or conditional update) is a
value of null
.
-
Refer to steps 1–4 in Create or edit a mapping.
-
In the mapping configuration modal:
-
Click Show advanced settings.
-
Check Apply a default if value is
null
. -
Insert your default value into the editor.
-
Click Save to save the mapping and close the mapping configuration modal window.
-
Define custom global variables for a script
-
In the Transformation Script field or the Conditional Update Script field, click + Add Variables.
-
To specify the variables in a JSON format, check the JSON toggle.
-
To give the variable a name, enter a name in the Name field.

Reconcile and synchronize end-user accounts
A reconciliation operation involves a target system (the system with user account updates) and Advanced Identity Cloud admin UI (the system that receives the updates). For example, a Salesforce application and Advanced Identity Cloud admin UI. Mappings define the relationship between the target system and Advanced Identity Cloud admin UI.
The goal of reconciliation is to ensure synchronization and consistency between Advanced Identity Cloud admin UI and the external system application. Reconciliation uses the details you define in the Mappings tab to determine how to map and update properties.
Running reconciliation syncs end-user account changes (New accounts, updated accounts, deleted accounts) and user-associated non-account objects (like Groups) from an authoritative application to Advanced Identity Cloud. This is for an inbound mapping.
The Reconciliation tab prepares an application to run reconciliation jobs; however, to schedule full and incremental reconciliation, go to the Reconciliation > Reconcile > Schedules tab.
Preview associations
To discern how your data reconciles between an external system and Advanced Identity Cloud admin UI, you can preview associations before you run reconciliation.
On the Reconciliation > Reconcile tab, click Preview Associations.
Synchronize an identity
You can synchronize an identity in Advanced Identity Cloud with an identity that exists in a target system. To achieve this, Advanced Identity Cloud models the identity in the target system and makes it available for mapping as a series of objects and properties:
- Account object
-
The account object represents the user entity in the target system. Examples of account object properties are name and email.
For example, in a Salesforce application, the
account.email
object property is mapped tomail
in the Advanced Identity Cloud user identity. - Non-account object
-
Non-account objects represent entities linked to the user entity in the target system. Examples of non-account objects are roles, groups, departments, permissions, and licenses.
For example, in a Salesforce application, the
group
object property is mapped to theGroupIds
field in the Advanced Identity Cloud user identity.
Each templated application in Advanced Identity Cloud contains an account object and may contain one or more non-account objects that are modelled specifically to the target system.
Manually set non-account objects for an account object
After you create certain connectors and run reconciliation, you can start mapping the account object to various non-account objects. These non-account objects are predefined. For more information about connectors with predefined non-account objects, refer to Connectors with predefined non-account objects.
However, connectors for non-authoritative applications, such as a Scripted REST connector, a Scripted Groovy connector, or a Scripted Table connector, don’t have predefined non-account objects. The reason is that these types of connectors can have different non-account objects. These non-account objects are nonpredefined objects.
For connectors for non-authoritative applications, you must manually select the non-account objects that map to specific properties for an account object.
-
Select the Provisioning tab.
-
Select the Properties tab.
-
Edit a property.
-
On the Edit Property screen, enable Constrain values for this property.
-
On the Edit Property screen, enable Application Object Type.
-
In the Select Object Type drop-down field, select a non-account object type to map to the current property.
-
On the Edit Property screen, enable Entitlement.
-
Click Save.
Connectors with predefined non-account objects
The following connectors have predefined non-account object types. After creating a connector that is listed in the table and running reconciliation, you can associate the account object in the second column with the non-account objects in the third column.
Connector | Account object | Predefined non account objects |
---|---|---|
Active Directory |
|
|
Azure AD |
|
|
Google Workspace |

Map target system object properties to Identity Cloud
To ensure all properties that are associated with a user account or role account synchronize during reconciliation, perform the following steps.
-
If your connector is not predefined, perform the steps in Manually set non-account objects for an account object.
-
Select the Provisioning tab.
-
Click Mapping.
-
Click Inbound.
-
Follow steps 3 to 6 in Create or edit a mapping.
Run a reconciliation
Before you perform the following steps, to ensure you synchronize all information for the identity, map all relevant object properties with the identity.
-
On the Reconciliation > Reconcile tab, click the ellipsis (…) to the right of a mapping.
-
Click Reconcile Identity.
-
Verify the information on the page, and click Reconcile Identity.
-
After the reconciliation process is complete, click Done.
View a report about the last reconciliation
You can view information about the last reconciliation, such as:
-
The percent of all accounts successfully reconciled.
-
Information about each reconciled account: mapping source, mapping target, attempted action, and the result of the reconciliation.
Before you perform the following steps, make sure you run reconciliation.
-
On the Reconciliation > Settings tab, click Show advanced settings.
-
To view a searchable table report of the last reconciliation results, set Persist Associations to
true
.-
If set to true, the UI displays a reconciliation report table and a search field that lets you search the table. The table displays below the reconciliation percentage graphic and percentage bars.
-
If set to false, the UI does not display a reconciliation report table.
To filter the report results, enter text in the Search users field.
To view different subsets of the report (1-to-1 match / no match), click View and select an item from the drop-down list.
-
For large reconciliations jobs: To avoid performance issues, ForgeRock recommends that you leave Persist Associations set to false .
|
Manage reconciliation schedules
The Schedules section of the Reconciliation > Settings tab lets you view and schedule reconciliation events for accounts or groups/organizations that have access to your application.
You can schedule two types of reconciliation:
-
Full Reconciliation: A process that completely synchronizes the source and target. This process usually happens once a week on a weekend or once a month but at longer intervals. The long intervals are because the synchronization process is very labor-intensive and can take a large amount of time depending on the reconciliation data.
-
Incremental Reconciliation: Also referred to as liveSync, incremental reconciliation is a process that only synchronizes the deltas between the source and target. You can run incremental reconciliation every few minutes to get new updates. For example, if you run an incremental reconciliation at 12:55 PM, then again at 2:00 PM, Advanced Identity Cloud admin UI only looks at the timeframe in between to update, create, or delete data if anything changes in the source or target. Depending on the application, a timestamp or change number is used to synchronize the delta.
You can edit existing schedules and activate or deactivate them.
Set up a full or incremental reconciliation schedule
The initial state of a schedule is inactive.
-
On the Reconciliation > Settings tab, navigate to the Schedules section.
-
Click an inactive schedule: Full Reconciliation or Incremental Reconciliation.
-
Choose one of the following ways to edit the schedule:
-
Edit the fields on the Set up page and click Save Schedule.
-
To use a text editor to edit the schedule:
-
Enable the Use cron toggle.
-
Enter a valid cron string in the Frequency field.
-
Click Save Schedule.
-
-
Manage reconciliation rules
You use rules to define the actions you want Advanced Identity Cloud to perform when certain events occur during reconciliation. For example, if reconciliation detects that an identity object exists in Advanced Identity Cloud but not in the target application, Advanced Identity Cloud creates an identity object in the target application and links it to a source object in Advanced Identity Cloud if both of the following are true:
-
Reconciliation detects that the identity object exists in Advanced Identity Cloud but not in the target application.
-
You select Advanced Identity Cloud to take the action
CREATE
.
Each rule has an action. Advanced Identity Cloud performs the action when a rule triggers an action to be performed on a record. Advanced Identity Cloud evaluates each record. When an event meets a rule condition, Advanced Identity Cloud performs the action you have defined for that rule.
The Situation Rules section of the Reconciliation > Settings tab displays the name and action of the rules for your application.
Situation (application) rules
Situation rule | Description |
---|---|
|
The source identity object matches multiple target identity objects based on the defined unique attribute. There must be a one-to-one link between a source and target identity object. can’t accurately make this link due to ambiguity. |
|
For authoritative apps only. The target identity object links to a missing source. This usually means the source identity object was deleted. |
|
The source links to a missing target identity object. This usually means the target identity object was deleted. |
|
The target identity object is linked to an old source object, usually deleted,
and can’t be linked to the new source identity object.
This usually the source identity object was deleted
and tried to recreate the source object.
On reconciliation, Advanced Identity Cloud
identified that it already found a source and target identity object linked.
For more information on |
|
The reconciliation finds a valid target identity object with no link established. This usually means another reconciliation needs to happen to establish a link (if you set the action to |
|
The source identity object doesn’t qualify, but target identity objects were found. |
|
A link is found, but the target identity object is missing. Advanced Identity Cloud had a matching source and target with a link but can no longer find the target identity object. |
|
The ideal situation for a record. The source and target identity objects both exist and a valid link between the two are present. This means the source and target both have a unique identifier that can only match one-to-one, and Advanced Identity Cloud established a link between the two. |
|
A valid source and target identity object match, but there is no link between the two. On a following reconciliation, Advanced Identity Cloud creates a link and the record moves from Found to the Confirmed rule. |
|
The source identity object doesn’t find a target identity object. This usually means a new record was created on the source, and typically, the action is Create. This creates a target identity object and links the source and target identity object. |
Rule action types
When a reconciliation determines the situation of a record, you must specify the action to be taken. There can only be one action per situation rule.
Action | Description |
---|---|
|
An asynchronous process has started. Don’t perform any action or generate any report. |
|
Create a target identity object and link the source and target. |
|
Delete the target identity object and unlink the source and target. |
|
Flag the link situation as an exception and log the incident. |
|
Don’t change the link or target object state. |
|
Create a link between the source and the correlated target identity object. |

Configure basic and advanced correlation between accounts
You can correlate the user accounts in an application to user accounts in Advanced Identity Cloud admin UI. This correlation is important because account attributes in the application may have different names than account attributes in Advanced Identity Cloud admin UI.
The Account Correlation section of the Reconciliation > Settings tab lets you choose the attribute(s) to use to match users in your application to users in Advanced Identity Cloud admin UI.
-
On the Reconciliation > Settings tab, navigate to the Account Correlation section.
-
Click Match using.
-
In the Attribute(s) to Match drop-down list, choose the attribute(s) to use to match users in the target system to users in Advanced Identity Cloud admin UI.
-
To use a query to set or edit match attributes, click Use advanced query.
-
For an authoritative application:
-
Choose to correlate a user if any or all attributes are matched.
-
Use the User property field to set the user property(s) to match.
-
-
For a target application:
-
Edit the correlation query script.
-
-
-
Click Save.
Manage reconciliation events
Event hooks allow you to set an action that occurs when a specific event happens.
The Event Hooks section of the Reconciliation > Settings tab lets you view and define event hooks for reconciliation events.
Add an event hook
-
On the Reconciliation > Settings tab, navigate to the Event Hooks section.
-
To the right of an event hook, click + Add.
-
Edit the script for the event hook.
-
Click Save or Save and Close.
Restrict reconciliation to specific identities
-
On the Reconciliation > Settings tab, click Show advanced settings.
-
Configure the following settings:
-
To restrict reconciliation to specific identities in an application by defining an explicit source query:
-
Enable Filter Source.
-
Choose to filter the source if Any or All conditions are met.
-
Use the remaining fields to define the explicit source query. You can define the query using all the properties available in the target system.
-
-
To restrict reconciliation to specific identities in Advanced Identity Cloud by defining an explicit target query:
-
Enable Filter Target.
-
Choose to filter the target if Any or All conditions are met.
-
Use the remaining fields to define the explicit target query. You can define the query using all the properties available in Advanced Identity Cloud.
-
-
To filter the application identities that are included in reconciliation using a script:
-
Enable Valid Source Script.
-
Edit the script.
-
-
To view a searchable table report of the last reconciliation results, set Persist Associations to
true
. For more information, refer to View a report about the last reconciliation. -
To filter the Advanced Identity Cloud admin UI identities that are included in reconciliation using a script:
-
Enable Valid Target Script.
-
Edit the script.
-
-
To allow correlation of source objects to empty target objects, enable Correlate empty target objects.
-
To prefetch each link in the database before processing each source or target object, enable Prefetch Links.
-
To allow reconciliations from an empty source to delete all data in a target resource, enable Allow reconciliations from an Empty Source.
-
To tune performance by adjusting the number of concurrent threads dedicated to reconciliation, in the Threads Per Reconciliation field, enter the number of concurrent threads.
-
To set the synchronization token used for incremental inbound reconciliation, enter a value in the Sync Token field.
-
-
Click Save.
Reset the last reconciliation job
You may need to reset the last reconciliation job if it failed or if it made a change you want to revert; for example, if the last reconciliation job added a new application user.
To reset the last reconciliation job, you must reset the sync token attribute. The sync token attribute stores the value of the last incremental reconciliation job that synced data inbound from a target system to Advanced Identity Cloud.
-
In your target system, get or create the reset value for the sync token attribute. To understand how to do this, refer to the documentation provided by the vendor of your target system.
-
In Advanced Identity Cloud admin UI, navigate to Applications > Provisioning > Reconciliation.
-
Click the Settings tab.
-
Scroll down and click Show advanced settings.
-
In the Sync Token text field, enter a new value for the sync token attribute.
-
Click Save.
