Cerner connector

Cerner is a healthcare-related service which provides an integrated healthcare IT solution for large healthcare providers. The Cerner connector lets you manage and synchronize accounts between Cerner and IDM managed user objects. A Cerner system account is required for this connector to work.

Before you start

Before you configure the connector, log in to your Cerner system account and note the following:

Bearer token

The bearer token associated with your system account.

Tenant

Your Cerner tenant ID.

Region

The Cerner Cloud region where the tenant resides.

Install the Cerner connector

If you are looking for the Advanced Identity Cloud application for this connector, refer to:

You can download any connector from Backstage, but some are included in the default deployment for Advanced Identity Cloud, IDM, or RCS. When using an included connector, you can skip installing it and move directly to configuration.

Connector included in default deployment
Connector IDM RCS

Cerner

No

Yes

Download the connector .jar file from Backstage.

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

    mv ~/Downloads/cerner-connector-1.5.20.23.jar /path/to/openidm/connectors/

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

Configure the Cerner connector

Create a connector configuration using the IDM admin UI:

  1. From the navigation bar, click Configure > Connectors.

  2. On the Connectors page, click New Connector.

  3. On the New Connector page, type a Connector Name.

  4. From the Connector Type drop-down list, select Cerner Connector - 1.5.20.23.

  5. Complete the Base Connector Details.

    For a list of all configuration properties, refer to Cerner Connector Configuration

  6. Click Save.

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

Refer to this procedure to create a connector configuration over REST.

Test the Cerner connector

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/Cerner?_action=test"
{
  "name": "Cerner",
  "enabled": true,
  "config": "config/provisioner.openicf/Cerner",
  "connectorRef": {
    "bundleVersion": "[1.5.0.0,1.6.0.0)",
    "bundleName": "org.forgerock.openicf.connectors.cerner-connector",
    "connectorName": "org.forgerock.openicf.connectors.cerner.CernerConnector"
  },
  "displayName": "Cerner Connector",
  "objectTypes": [
    "__ORGANIZATION__",
    "__ACCOUNT__",
    "__ORGANIZATIONGROUP__",
    "__ALL__",
    "__PERSONNELGROUP__"
  ],
  "ok": true
}

If the command returns "ok": true, your connector was configured correctly, and can authenticate to the Cerner system.

Cerner remote connector

If you want to run this connector outside of PingOne Advanced Identity Cloud or IDM, you can configure the Cerner connector as a remote connector. Java Connectors installed remotely on a Java Connector Server function identically to those bundled locally within PingOne Advanced Identity Cloud or installed locally on IDM.

You can download the Cerner connector from here.

Refer to Remote connectors for configuring the Cerner remote connector.

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

Create a Cerner user

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 "Content-Type: application/json" \
--request POST \
--data '{
  "given": "Barbara",
  "family": "Jensen",
  "aliasType": "USER",
  "__NAME__": "Jensen, Barbara"
}' \
"http://localhost:8080/openidm/system/Cerner/__ACCOUNT__?_action=create"
{
  "_id": "5170a9cd-e501-4cbf-a1bf-9e6d293362c6",
  "updatedAt": "2022-04-29T22:54:08Z",
  "given": "Barbara",
  "name": {
    "given": "Barbara",
    "family": "Jensen",
    "formatted": "Barbara Jensen"
  },
  "id": "5170a9cd-e501-4cbf-a1bf-9e6d293362c6",
  "languages": [],
  "formattedName": "Barbara Jensen",
  "aliases": {
    "type": "USER",
    "value": "Jensen",
    "system": "Barbara"
  },
  "aliasValue": "Jensen",
  "__NAME__": "Jensen,Barbara",
  "createdAt": "2022-04-29T22:54:08Z",
  "aliasType": "USER",
  "family": "Jensen",
  "isManual": true,
  "aliasSystem": "Barbara"
}

When you create a new user, you must specify at least __NAME__, aliasType, given, and family. Refer to the list of account attributes for more information.
Update a Cerner user

You can modify an existing user with a PUT request, including all attributes of the account in the request:

For example, to add the user’s middle name:

curl \
--header "X-OpenIDM-Username: openidm-admin" \
--header "X-OpenIDM-Password: openidm-admin" \
--header "Content-Type: application/json" \
--header "If-Match:*" \
--request PUT \
--data '{
  "given": "Barbara",
  "family": "Jensen",
  "aliasType": "USER",
  "__NAME__": "Jensen, Barbara",
  "name": {
    "middle": "Simone"
  }
}' \
"http://localhost:8080/openidm/system/Cerner/__ACCOUNT__/5170a9cd-e501-4cbf-a1bf-9e6d293362c6"
{
  "_id": "5170a9cd-e501-4cbf-a1bf-9e6d293362c6",
  "updatedAt": "2022-04-29T23:03:57Z",
  "given": "Barbara",
  "name": {
    "given": "Barbara",
    "middle": "Simone",
    "family": "Jensen",
    "formatted": "Barbara Simone Jensen"
  },
  "id": "5170a9cd-e501-4cbf-a1bf-9e6d293362c6",
  "languages": [],
  "formattedName": "Barbara Simone Jensen",
  "aliases": {
    "type": "USER",
    "value": "Jensen",
    "system": "Barbara"
  },
  "aliasValue": "Jensen",
  "__NAME__": "Jensen,Barbara",
  "createdAt": "2022-04-29T22:54:08Z",
  "aliasType": "USER",
  "family": "Jensen",
  "isManual": true,
  "aliasSystem": "Barbara"
}
Query Cerner users

The following example queries all Cerner users:

curl \
--header "X-OpenIDM-Username: openidm-admin" \
--header "X-OpenIDM-Password: openidm-admin" \
--header "Content-Type: application/json" \
--request GET \
"http://localhost:8080/openidm/system/Cerner/__ACCOUNT__?_queryId=query-all-ids"
{
  "result": [
    {
      "_id": "7d9538c8-1c2a-4894-a403-129b35308f39"
    },
    {
      "_id": "8f1c2671-9ebb-4105-9537-a3a0fc24afce"
    },
    {
      "_id": "ac944860-705f-4487-99bf-6959c5e6157c"
    },
    {
      "_id": "d308e459-51fa-469a-a07e-72f96906a4b4"
    },
    {
      "_id": "ff9d6902-20be-4c6e-821a-5a0f3ccaebc8"
    },
    {
      "_id": "bf2b9346-715e-4f59-9dc5-2bc89b8216cd"
    },
    {
      "_id": "055def33-a845-4100-bcd1-2b59a3526ec5"
    },
    {
      "_id": "167609b8-dfd0-4302-9022-4a3e8809b166"
    },
    [ ... ]
    {
      "_id": "9f4ea23d-bacc-46ee-b8c9-75916a5f5128"
    },
    {
      "_id": "a4d6be21-a5ce-4a56-91af-94c627701d4f"
    }
  ],
  "resultCount": 1020,
  "pagedResultsCookie": null,
  "totalPagedResultsPolicy": "NONE",
  "totalPagedResults": -1,
  "remainingPagedResults": -1
}

Querying all ids can take a significant amount of time to return when the data set is large. Consider using paginated results instead, for example:

curl \
--header "X-OpenIDM-Username: openidm-admin" \
--header "X-OpenIDM-Password: openidm-admin" \
--header "Content-Type: application/json" \
--request GET \
"http://localhost:8080/openidm/system/Cerner/__ACCOUNT__?_queryFilter=true&_fields=_id&_pageSize=2&_pagedResultsOffset=50"
{
  "result": [
    {
      "_id": "878c87d4-8322-4908-a858-555a1cb45e36"
    },
    {
      "_id": "9ecaa98b-58df-4dd1-bc99-34341411b151"
    }
  ],
  "resultCount": 2,
  "pagedResultsCookie": null,
  "totalPagedResultsPolicy": "NONE",
  "totalPagedResults": -1,
  "remainingPagedResults": -1
}

The following command queries a specific user by their ID:

curl \
--header "X-OpenIDM-Username: openidm-admin" \
--header "X-OpenIDM-Password: openidm-admin" \
--header "Content-Type: application/json" \
--request GET \
"http://localhost:8080/openidm/system/Cerner/__ACCOUNT__/5170a9cd-e501-4cbf-a1bf-9e6d293362c6"
{
  "_id": "5170a9cd-e501-4cbf-a1bf-9e6d293362c6",

    "given": "Barbara",
    "middle": "Simone",
    "family": "Jensen",
    "formatted": "Barbara Simone Jensen"
  },
  "id": "5170a9cd-e501-4cbf-a1bf-9e6d293362c6",
  "languages": [],
  "formattedName": "Barbara Simone Jensen",
  "aliases": {
    "type": "USER",
    "value": "Jensen",
    "system": "Barbara"
  },
  "aliasValue": "Jensen",

  "aliasType": "USER",
  "family": "Jensen",
  "isManual": true,
  "aliasSystem": "Barbara"
}

You can use the Cerner connector to delete an account from the Cerner repository.

The following example deletes a Cerner account:

curl \
--header "X-OpenIDM-Username: openidm-admin" \
--header "X-OpenIDM-Password: openidm-admin" \
--header "Content-Type: application/json" \
--request DELETE \
"http://localhost:8080/openidm/system/Cerner/__ACCOUNT__/5170a9cd-e501-4cbf-a1bf-9e6d293362c6"
{
  "_id": "5170a9cd-e501-4cbf-a1bf-9e6d293362c6",
  "updatedAt": "2022-04-29T23:03:57Z",
  "given": "Barbara",
  "name": {
    "given": "Barbara",
    "middle": "Simone",
    "family": "Jensen",
    "formatted": "Barbara Simone Jensen"
  },
  "id": "5170a9cd-e501-4cbf-a1bf-9e6d293362c6",
  "languages": [],
  "formattedName": "Barbara Simone Jensen",
  "aliases": {
    "type": "USER",
    "value": "Jensen",
    "system": "Barbara"
  },
  "aliasValue": "Jensen",
  "__NAME__": "Jensen,Barbara",
  "createdAt": "2022-04-29T22:54:08Z",
  "aliasType": "USER",
  "family": "Jensen",
  "isManual": true,
  "aliasSystem": "Barbara"
}

All supported resources can be queried. You can update user accounts, organizations, organization groups, and personnel groups, but only user accounts can be created or deleted. Available additional operations include:

OpenICF Interfaces Implemented by the Cerner Connector

The Cerner Connector implements the following OpenICF interfaces. For additional details, see ICF 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.
