Certify access by event

Administrators have the ability to configure certifications triggered by specific governance events. This process, known as event-based certification, provides faster certification resolution compared to scheduled campaigns spanning several weeks or months that involve multiple applications, complex rules, and hundreds of reviewers.

Event-based certifications runs an identity certification for any user that triggers the following events:

User create. Identity Cloud detects when a user has been created.
User modify. Identity Cloud detects when an existing user has been modified.
Attribute change. Identity Cloud detects changes in an existing user’s account attributes.
User delete/deactivate. Identity Cloud detects if a user’s account has been deleted or deactivated.

Events tab

To access the Events tab, from the Identity Cloud admin UI, go to Governance > Events.

If you have no events configured in the system, the "There are no events to show" page appears with a New Event button.
