Web Services Overview

CA Identity Governance exposes web services that support a range of queries and interactions, including the following:

• Data update and exchange—endpoints can submit provisioning changes directly to a CA Identity Governance configuration, and receive provisioning updates from CA Identity Governance.
• What-if queries—provisioning platforms can use CA Identity Governance analytical tools to test proposed provisioning changes for compliance or pattern issues.
• Service extension and integration—external applications or resources can be integrated with CA Identity Governance workflows. For example, certification and other processes can interface with SMS or other messaging platforms to send users task or status notifications.

Javadoc of the public classes, methods, and services is contained in the CA-RCM-rel#-Language-Files.zip file of the CA Identity Governance installation package.
