Define a Custom Configuration for the Endpoint

Important! For more information about endpoints, and endpoint objects and attributes, see the Endpoint Guides on CA Support.

If you select Use custom configuration for your endpoint template, you must manually provide mappings between CA Identity Manager and CA Identity Governance so that both systems understand the relationships between objects.

1. Under Define User Accounts, map endpoint account attributes to CA Identity Governance account attributes.

   Note the following:

   • Use the filter to import a subset of accounts from CA Identity Manager.
   • Click Add in the right-hand corner of the User Mapping section to add more user mappings between CA Identity Governance and CA Identity Manager.
2. Click Next.
3. Define associations for the endpoint. This screen allows you to do the following:
   • Define how objects in an endpoint map to objects in CA Identity Governance, for example, a group in Active Directory is a resource in CA Identity Governance
   • Define how different objects are linked
   • Define additional properties for both objects and links, where available

   Define associations as follows:

   1. Under Association List, click Add to the right.
   2. Select the initial object type (specific to the endpoint) to associate in the From object type drop-down list.
   3. Select the relationship attribute used to associate the two objects.
   4. Click Ok.
   5. (Optional) Under Custom association fields mapping, click Add to provide any link attribute mapping information.

      Some associations have additional data related to them stored in attributes. Add the attribute mapping information if there is an attribute related to the association.

      Click Ok.

4. At this point, the object that the account is associated to does not yet relate to a known CA Identity Governance resource. Define the relation to a resource as follows:
   1. Click the 'Select RCM role/resource' active link.
   2. Provide a name for the CA Identity Governance resource.
   3. (Optional) Click Edit to add field mappings for the related object.

      You can map attributes on the endpoint object to fields on the CA Identity Governance resource.

   4. Click Ok.
5. Repeat Steps 3 and 4 for each association.
6. Click Ok.
