accountId

Specifies the name of the account to correlate. This is automatically obtained from the view ID.

accountGUID

Specifies the GUID of the account to correlate. Required only if accountId and resource cannot clearly and unambiguously identify the resource.

resource

Specifies the name of the resource where the account resides. This value is automatically obtained from the view ID.

accountAttributes

Specifies the attributes of the account. If present, the viewer will not fetch the current account attributes to pass to the correlation/confirmation rules. Instead, these attributes will be passed in.

correlator

Specifies the correlation rule to use. If not present, the correlation rule specified by reconciliation policy for the resource will be used. If present, but null, no correlation rule is used.

confirmer

Specifies the confirmation rule to use. If not present, the confirmation rule specified by reconciliation policy for the resource will be used. If present, but null, no confirmation rule is used.

These lists consist of GenericObjects that contain the summary attributes of users.

List 

claimant

Lists claimants that are calculated independent of the correlation algorithm, so claimants may also appear in another of the lists. Claimant discovery can be disabled by setting ignoreClaimants to true in the view options. A user claims an account if it has a ResourceInfo explicitly referencing the account.

correlated

Lists the users who were correlated to the resource account.

unconfirmed

Lists users who were selected by the correlation rule, but were rejected by the confirmation rule. This list is only present if the includeUnconfirmed is set to true in the view options.
