Import CA Identity Manager Data to CA Identity Governance

After you define the connector between CA Identity Manager and CA Identity Governance, you can import information about users, roles, and endpoint privileges into CA Identity Governance. Role engineers can then analyze that data using various tools in CA Identity Governance. Once the role engineers determine the role structure, they can apply changes, based on that structure, to CA Identity Manager.

You import data from endpoints managed by CA Identity Manager by defining connector jobs in the CA Identity Governance portal. You can then run a connector job, or define a schedule that automatically runs a job at specified intervals.

Note: For more information about running an import connector job, see the CA Identity Governance Configuration Guide.

The import creates the configuration files (CFG) you specified in the universe and populates them with CA Identity Manager data. Also after import, the connection object between CA Identity Manager and CA Identity Governance is automatically created.
