PeopleSoft Connector

Important

Connectors continue to be released outside the IDM release. For the latest documentation, refer to the ICF documentation.

The PeopleSoft connector lets you manage and synchronize accounts between Oracle PeopleSoft and IDM managed user objects. A PeopleSoft administrator account is required for this connector to work.

Before you start

Important

Connectors continue to be released outside the IDM release. For the latest documentation, refer to the ICF documentation.

Before you configure the connector, log in to your PeopleSoft administrator account and note the following:

Host

The host address of the PeopleSoft instance.

Port

The port for the PeopleSoft instance.

UserID

The username to log into the PeopleSoft instance.

Password

The password to log into the PeopleSoft instance.

Domain Connect Password

The domain connection password for the PeopleSoft WebLogic application server.

Install the PeopleSoft connector

Important

Connectors continue to be released outside the IDM release. For the latest documentation, refer to the ICF documentation.

  1. Download the connector .jar file from the ForgeRock BackStage download site.

  2. If you are running the connector locally, place it in the /path/to/openidm/connectors directory, for example: 

    mv ~/Downloads/peoplesoft-connector-1.5.20.12.jar /path/to/openidm/connectors/

  3. If you are using a remote connector server (RCS), place it in the /path/to/openicf/connectors directory on the RCS.

  4. Download the connector dependencies.

    • psjoa.jar is a file unique to each installation of PeopleSoft. It is compiled and provided by your PoepleSoft administrator. If it is not provided to you, see Generate psjoa.jar.

    • psft.jar is created by the following commands: 

      set CLASSPATH=%JAVA_HOME%\lib\tools.jar;%CLASSPATH%
jar cvf psft.jar .\PeopleSoft\Generated\CompIntfc*.class

Generate psjoa.jar

Important

Connectors continue to be released outside the IDM release. For the latest documentation, refer to the ICF documentation.

Note

This procedure is only required if your PeopleSoft Administrator did not provide psjoa.jar.

  1. Start PeopleSoft Application Designer, and open any Component Interface definition.

  2. Select Build > PeopleSoft APIs. The Build PeopleSoft API Binding window displays.

  3. Under the Java Classes group box, select Build, and specify a target directory.

  4. To build the selected bindings, click OK. The app builds the selected bindings in the target directory. If the operation is successful, a Done message appears in the PeopleSoft Application Designer Build window.

  5. Compile the generated APIs: 

    cd %PS_HOME%\class\PeopleSoft\Generated\CompIntfc
javac -classpath %PS_HOME%\class\psjoa.jar *.java
cd c:\pt8\class\PeopleSoft\ Generated\ PeopleSoft
javac -classpath %PS_HOME%\class\psjoa.jar *.java
    cd $PS_HOME/class/PeopleSoft/Generated/CompIntfc
javac classpath $PS_HOME/class/psjoa.jar *.java
cd $PS_HOME/class/PeopleSoft/Generated/PeopleSoft
javac classpath $PS_HOME/class/psjoa.jar *.java

  6. Copy psjoa.jar and generated jar into /path/to/openicf/lib.

Configure the PeopleSoft connector

Important

Connectors continue to be released outside the IDM release. For the latest documentation, refer to the ICF documentation.

Create a connector configuration using the Admin UI:

  1. Select Configure > Connectors and click New Connector.

  2. Enter a Connector Name.

  3. Select PeopleSoft Connector - 1.5.20.12 as the Connector Type.

  4. Provide the Base Connector Details.

  5. Click Save.

When your connector is configured correctly, the connector displays as Active in the admin UI.

Alternatively, test that the configuration is correct by running the following command: 

curl \
--header "X-OpenIDM-Username: openidm-admin" \
--header "X-OpenIDM-Password: openidm-admin" \
--header "Accept-API-Version: resource=1.0" \
--request POST \
"http://localhost:8080/openidm/system/peoplesoft?_action=test"
{
  "name": "peoplesoft",
  "enabled": true,
  "config": "config/provisioner.openicf/peoplesoft",
  "connectorRef": {
    "bundleVersion": "[1.5.0.0,1.6.0.0)",
    "bundleName": "org.forgerock.openicf.connectors.peoplesoft-connector",
    "connectorName": "org.forgerock.openicf.connectors.peoplesoft.PeopleSoftConnector"
  },
  "displayName": "PeopleSoft Connector",
  "objectTypes": [
    "__ACCOUNT__",
    "__ALL__"
  ],
  "ok": true
}

If the command returns "ok": true, your connector has been configured correctly, and can authenticate to the PeopleSoft server.

Operations on PeopleSoft accounts

Important

Connectors continue to be released outside the IDM release. For the latest documentation, refer to the ICF documentation.

You can use the PeopleSoft connector to perform the following actions on a PeopleSoft account:

The following example creates a user with the minimum required attributes: 

curl \
--header "X-OpenIDM-Username: openidm-admin" \
--header "X-OpenIDM-Password: openidm-admin" \
--header "Accept-API-Version: resource=1.0" \
--request POST \
--data '{
  "__NAME__": "Barbara Jensen",
  "UserID": "BJENSEN",
  "IDTypes": [{
    "IDType": "EMP",
    "AttributeValue": "0001"
  }]
}'\
"http://localhost:8080/openidm/system/peoplesoft/__ACCOUNT__?_action=create"
{
  "_id": "BJENSEN",
  "ExpertEntry": 0,
  "LanguageCode": "ENG",
  "EmailUser": "Y",

OpenICF Interfaces Implemented by the PeopleSoft Connector

The PeopleSoft Connector implements the following OpenICF interfaces.

Create

Creates an object and its uid.

Delete

Deletes an object, referenced by its uid.

Schema

Describes the object types, operations, and options that the connector supports.

Script on Connector

Enables an application to run a script in the context of the connector. Any script that runs on the connector has the following characteristics:

  • The script runs in the same execution environment as the connector and has access to all the classes to which the connector has access.

  • The script has access to a connector variable that is equivalent to an initialized instance of the connector. At a minimum, the script can access the connector configuration.

  • The script has access to any script-arguments passed in by the application.

Search

Searches the target resource for all objects that match the specified object class and filter.

Test

Tests the connector configuration. Testing a configuration checks all elements of the environment that are referred to by the configuration are available. For example, the connector might make a physical connection to a host that is specified in the configuration to verify that it exists and that the credentials that are specified in the configuration are valid.

This operation might need to connect to a resource, and, as such, might take some time. Do not invoke this operation too often, such as before every provisioning operation. The test operation is not intended to check that the connector is alive (that is, that its physical connection to the resource has not timed out).

You can invoke the test operation before a connector configuration has been validated.

Update

Updates (modifies or replaces) objects on a target resource.

PeopleSoft Connector Configuration

The PeopleSoft Connector has the following configurable properties.

Configuration properties

PropertyTypeDefault Encrypted [a] Required [b]
host String null

Host name or IP address to connect to PeopleSoft server

port int 0

Port to connect to PeopleSoft server

userId String null

The userid used to login to PeopleSoft server

password GuardedString null

The password used to login to PeopleSoft server

domainConnectPassword GuardedString null

The password for PeopleSoft app server domain

[a] Indicates whether the property value is considered confidential, and therefore encrypted in OpenIDM.

[b] A list of operations in this column indicates that the property is required for those operations.
