What is a Resource Adapter Class?

A resource adapter class implements methods that

• Register the resource object in the Identity Manager repository

• Enable you to manage the external resource

• Push information from Identity Manager to the resource

• (Optional) Pull information from the resource into Identity Manager

  This optional pull capability is known as Active Sync, and a resource adapter with Active Sync capability is referred to as Active Sync-enabled. See What Are Active Sync-Enabled Resource Adapters? for more information.
