Create Resource

Initiates a request to Roles Based Provisioning Module (RBPM) for creating a resource specified in the Resource Name field. If the distinguished name of the entitlement is specified in the request, Identity Manager creates a resource with an entitlement. Otherwise, the resource is created without an entitlement. To request for a static resource, specify the value of the entitlement. Specifying an entitlement value is not needed for creating a dynamic resource. When the action is successfully performed, Identity Manager generates a success message in the success.do-create-resource local variable. If a policy containing this action encounters an error, an error message is generated in the error.do-create-resource local variable. For more information about local variables, see Local Variable Selector. This action is available only with the Identity Manager server version 4.6 and later.

Fields

Resource Name: Specify the name of the resource to create. Supports variable expansion. For more information, see Variable Selector.
User Application URL: Specify the URL of the User Application server hosting the Roles Based Provisioning module. Supports variable expansion. For more information, see Variable Selector.
Authorized User DN: Specify the name of the user authorized to request the resource assignment in LDAP format. Supports variable expansion. For more information, see Variable Selector.
Password: Specify the authorized user password. You can enter a clear text password (not recommended) or use the Argument Builder to specify a Named Password.
Timeout Value: Specify the number of milliseconds you want Identity Manager to try to establish a connection to the User Application server before timing out. The default value is 0.
Strings: (Optional) Specify additional argument strings for the Resource creation request. You can enter the strings manually or select the Edit the Strings icon to open the Named String Builder and specify the strings. For more information about the Named String Builder, see Named String Builder.
