iiq.properties
Config file holding database connection, keystore path, plugin list, and home-directory settings for the IdentityIQ application server.
iiq console install
Creates the initial IdentityIQ database schema and loads the base configuration objects; used only on a fresh, empty database before first startup.
iiq console upgrade
Applies the schema changes and configuration updates required to move an existing IdentityIQ database from an older release to the current version.
Check Configuration task
Built-in task that validates database connectivity, keystore access, plugin state, and object configuration; run it after install, upgrade, or major configuration change.
Loss of keystore file
If the keystore file is lost, values stored encrypted in configuration, such as application passwords, cannot be decrypted and must be re-entered manually.
Delimited File connector
Connector that reads accounts from CSV-style files; it requires a file location, delimiter, header-row setting, and a defined account schema with attribute types.
Application correlation configuration
Maps account attributes from an application to identity attributes so that aggregated accounts attach to the correct identity cube during aggregation and refresh.
Authoritative application
Application flagged as the authoritative source of identity data; its accounts create new identity cubes and update identity attributes during aggregation.
Account aggregation task
Task that reads accounts from an application through its connector and creates or updates Link objects on the matching identity cubes.
Provisioning policy
Form-based definition of the fields, defaults, and validation required when creating, updating, or deleting an account on an application.
Refresh Identity Cube
Recomputes identity attributes, correlates accounts and managers, detects and assigns roles, and runs policy scans for the identities in scope.
LCM Provisioning workflow
Default workflow that converts approved access requests into provisioning plans, executes the plans against applications, and records the outcome.
Provisioning plan
Object containing one or more account requests; the provisioner compiles it into per-application provisioning projects and executes the requested operations.
Identity trigger rule
Rule that fires on identity create or attribute-change events and drives lifecycle behavior such as joiner, mover, or leaver processing.
Link object
Record associating one identity cube with one account on a specific application, storing that account's attributes and assigned entitlements.
IT role
Role whose profile constrains application entitlements directly; assigned to identities manually or by propagation and used to drive provisioning.
Business role
Role whose profile lists other roles and membership criteria; used to group IT roles for business-level assignment, approval, and certification.
Role profile constraint
Filter on application, attribute, or entitlement values that determines which accounts and entitlements a role matches during role detection.
Role propagation
Process that assigns or removes roles for identities based on business role membership criteria and the role hierarchy.
Separation of duty policy
Policy defining combinations of roles or entitlements that must not be held by the same identity; violations are created when a scan detects them.
Policy scan task
Task that evaluates policy definitions against identities and creates or updates PolicyViolation objects for each conflict it detects.
Certification sign-off
Final phase of a certification campaign in which the campaign owner reviews completed decisions and formally closes the campaign.
Certification remediation
Post-decision process that revokes, modifies, or mitigates access according to reviewer decisions made during the certification campaign.
Entitlement owner certification
Certification in which the owner assigned to each entitlement reviews which identities hold that entitlement and approves or revokes it.
BeanShell rule
Custom code attached to applications, workflows, or tasks; it runs in the IdentityIQ context with access to the sailpoint API and a log object.
Workflow step
Building block of a workflow definition; types include approval, script, subprocess, condition, and end, connected to each other by transitions.
Identity attribute transform
Configuration that computes an identity attribute value from source attributes using operations such as concatenation, case conversion, date formatting, or a rule.
WorkflowCase object
Persistent record that tracks the state, variables, and pending approvals of a running workflow instance until it completes.
checkConfig console command
Console command that validates installation configuration, database connectivity, and required settings without starting the full application server.
TaskResult object
Stored record of a task run containing status, timing, messages, and exceptions, and the primary source for troubleshooting failed tasks.
Aggregation partitioning
Splitting a large aggregation into several concurrent tasks by defining partition boundaries so each task processes a subset of the accounts.
Clear object cache
Console or debug-page action that flushes IdentityIQ's in-memory object cache so changed configuration objects reload immediately.
