How to Import Data from Dynamic Connectors

When using Connector Xpress, perform the following these steps to import data from a dynamic connector to CA Identity Governance.

1. In Connector Xpress, define a dynamic connector.

   Be sure to select the 'Is Interesting to Compliance' check box for any attribute that you want to be interesting to CA Identity Governance. For example, an attribute of an account marked as interesting to compliance is available to CA Identity Governance as a resource for analysis. Typically these attributes signify the assignment of a permission or entitlement on the endpoint system.

   Note: For more information, see the Connector Xpress Guide.

2. Deploy the dynamic connector to the CA IAM Connector Server on the CA Identity Governance server.
3. In the CA Identity Governance portal, create a CA IAM Connector Server connector to import data from the endpoint.

   When you create this connector, you define the attribute mappings between endpoint objects and CA Identity Governance roles and resources.

Note: There are two ports (non-TLS/SSL and SSL) that a client can use to communicate with the CA IAM Connector Server. To allow Connector Xpress to access the CA IAM Connector Server, configure the firewall on your CA IAM Connector Server server host to allow communication on these ports.
