3.3 Using the GoToMeeting Connector

You can use the connector for performing reconciliation and provisioning operations after configuring it to meet your requirements.

Note:

These sections provide both conceptual and procedural information about configuring the connector. It is recommended that you read the conceptual information before performing the procedures.

• Configuring Reconciliation for the GoToMeeting Connector

• Configuring Scheduled Jobs

• Performing Provisioning Operations

• Uninstalling the GoToMeeting Connector

3.3.1 Scheduled Jobs for Lookup Field Synchronization

The GoToMeeting Group Lookup Reconciliation and GoToMeeting License Lookup Reconciliation scheduled jobs are used for lookup field synchronization. Values fetched by these scheduled jobs from the target system are populated in the Lookup.GTM.Group and Lookup.GTM.License lookup definitions, respectively.

Table 3-13 Attributes of the Scheduled Jobs for Lookup Field Synchronization

Attribute	Description
Code Key Attribute	Name of the connector attribute that is used to populate the Code Key column of the lookup definition (specified as the value of the Lookup Name attribute). Default value: __UID__
Decode Attribute	Name of the connector attribute that is used to populate the Decode column of the lookup definition (specified as the value of the Lookup Name attribute). Default value: __NAME__
IT Resource Name	Name of the IT resource for the target system installation from which you want reconcile user records. Default value: GoToMeeting
Lookup Name	Enter the name of the lookup definition in Oracle Identity Manager that must be populated with values fetched from the target system. Depending on the scheduled job that you are using, the default values are as follows: For GoToMeeting Group Lookup Reconciliation: Lookup.GTM.Group For GoToMeeting License Lookup Reconciliation: Lookup.GTM.License If you create a copy of any of these lookup definitions, then enter the name of that new lookup definition as the value of the Lookup Name attribute.
Object Type	Enter the type of object you want to reconcile. Depending on the scheduled job that you are using, the default values are as follows: For GoToMeeting Group Lookup Reconciliation: __GROUP__ For GoToMeeting License Lookup Reconciliation: __LICENSE__

3.3.2 Configuring Reconciliation for the GoToMeeting Connector

You can configure the connector to specify the type of reconciliation and its schedule.

This section provides details on the following topics related to configuring reconciliation:

• Full Reconciliation

• Performing Limited Reconciliation

• Reconciling Large Number of Records

• Reconciliation Scheduled Jobs for the GoToMeeting Connector

3.3.2.1 Performing Full Reconciliation

Full reconciliation involves reconciling all existing user records from the target system into Oracle Identity Manager. After you deploy the connector, you must first perform full reconciliation.

To perform a full reconciliation run, ensure that no value is specified for the Filter attribute of the scheduled job for reconciling users. If the target system contains more number of records than what it can return in a single response, then use the Flat File connector to perform full reconciliation. See Reconciling Large Number of Records.

3.3.2.2 Performing Limited Reconciliation

You can perform limited reconciliation by creating filters for the reconciliation module, and reconcile records from the target system based on a specified filter criterion.

Limited or filtered reconciliation is the process of limiting the number of records being reconciled based on a set filter criteria. By default, all target system records that are added or modified after the last reconciliation run are reconciled during the current reconciliation run. You can customize this process by specifying the subset of added or modified target system records that must be reconciled. You do this by creating filters for the reconciliation module.

This connector provides a Filter Suffix attribute (a scheduled task attribute) that allows you to use any of the attributes of the target system to filter target system records. You specify a value for the Filter Suffix attribute while configuring the user reconciliation scheduled job.

Note:

If the target system contains more number of records than what it can return in a single response, then use the Flat File connector to perform limited reconciliation. See Reconciling Large Number of Records.

For more information on GoToMeeting filters, see the filtering information related to GoToMeeting Administration REST API Implementation on the GoToMeeting Developer Center page at https://goto-developer.logmeininc.com/.

3.3.2.3 Reconciling Large Number of Records

During a reconciliation run, if the target system contains more number of records than what it can return in a single response, you can fetch all the records into Oracle Identity Manager using the Flat File connector. The Flat File connector consumes information in a flat file, and generates connector metadata using the metadata generation utility.

To reconcile a large number of records from the target system into Oracle Identity Manager:

1. Export all users in the target system to a flat file.
2. Copy the flat file to a location that is accessible from Oracle Identity Manager.
3. Create a schema file representing the structure of the flat file. See Creating a Schema File in Oracle Identity Manager Connector Guide for Flat File.
4. Install the Flat File connector. See Running the Connector Installer in Oracle Identity Manager Connector Guide for Flat File.
5. Configure the Flat File IT resource. See Configuring the IT Resource in Oracle Identity Manager Connector Guide for Flat File.
6. Configure and run the Flat File Accounts Loader scheduled job.
   While configuring this scheduled job, ensure that you set the value of the Target IT Resource Name attribute to GoToMeeting and Target Resource Object Name to GoToMeeting User.
   See Flat File Accounts Loader and IT_RES_NAME Flat File Accounts Loader in Oracle Identity Manager Connector Guide for Flat File for information about the attributes of the Flat File Accounts Loader scheduled job.

3.3.2.4 Reconciliation Scheduled Jobs for the GoToMeeting Connector

When you run the Connector Installer, reconciliation scheduled jobs are automatically created in Oracle Identity Manager. You must configure these scheduled jobs to suit your requirements by specifying values for its attributes.

This section discusses the following scheduled jobs that you can configure for reconciliation:

• GoToMeeting User Reconciliation

• GoToMeeting Update Access Token

3.3.2.4.1 GoToMeeting User Reconciliation

The GoToMeeting User Reconciliation scheduled job is used to reconcile user account data from the target system in the target resource (account management) mode of the connector.

Table 3-14 Attributes of the GoToMeeting User Reconciliation Scheduled Job

Attribute	Description
Filter Suffix	Enter the search filter for fetching user records from the target system during a reconciliation run. See Performing Limited Reconciliation. Sample value: “?filter=firstName%20%3D%20%22.*UserA.*%22”
IT Resource Name	Enter the name of the IT resource for the target system installation from which you want to reconcile user records. Default value: GoToMeeting
Object Type	This attribute holds the name of the object type for the reconciliation run. Default value: User Do not change the default value.
Resource Object Name	Name of the resource object against which reconciliation runs are performed. Default value: GoToMeeting User Do not change the default value.

3.3.2.4.2 GoToMeeting Update Access Token

The GoToMeeting Update Access Token scheduled job is used to automatically refresh the access token value (configured as part of the IT resource) before it expires.

Table 3-15 Attributes of the GoToMeeting Update Access Token Scheduled Job

Attribute	Description
Access Token Endpoint	This attribute holds the GoToMeeting Administration API endpoint to get a new access token value. Default value: https://api.getgo.com/oauth/access_token Do not modify the value of this attribute.
IT Resource Name	Enter the name of the IT resource for the target system installation from which you want to reconcile user records. Default value: GoToMeeting
Task Name	This attribute holds the name of the scheduled task. Default value: GoToMeeting Update Access Token You must not change the default value.

3.3.3 Configuring Scheduled Jobs

Configure scheduled jobs to perform reconciliation runs that check for new information on your target system periodically and replicates the data in Oracle Identity Manager.

You can apply this procedure to configure the scheduled jobs for lookup field synchronization and reconciliation.

To configure a scheduled job:

1. Log in to Oracle Identity System Administration.
2. In the left pane, under System Management, click Scheduler.
3. Search for and open the scheduled job as follows:
   1. In the Search field, enter the name of the scheduled job as the search criterion. Alternatively, you can click Advanced Search and specify the search criterion.
   2. In the search results table on the left pane, click the scheduled job in the Job Name column.
4. On the Job Details tab, you can modify the parameters of the scheduled task:
   • Retries: Enter an integer value in this field. This number represents the number of times the scheduler tries to start the job before assigning the Stopped status to the job.
   • Schedule Type: Depending on the frequency at which you want the job to run, select the appropriate schedule type. See Creating Jobs in Oracle Fusion Middleware Administering Oracle Identity Manager.

   In addition to modifying the job details, you can enable or disable a job.

5. On the Job Details tab, in the Parameters region, specify values for the attributes of the scheduled task.

   Note:

   • Values (either default or user-defined) must be assigned to all the attributes. If even a single attribute value is left empty, then reconciliation is not performed.

   • See Reconciliation Scheduled Jobs for the GoToMeeting Connector for the list of scheduled tasks and their attributes.

6. Click Apply to save the changes.

   Note:

   You can use the Scheduler Status page in Identity System Administration to either start, stop, or reinitialize the scheduler.

3.3.4 Performing Provisioning Operations

You create a new user in Identity Self Service by using the Create User page. You provision or request for accounts on the Accounts tab of the User Details page.

To perform provisioning operations in Oracle Identity Manager:

1. Log in to Identity Self Service.
2. Create a user as follows:
   1. In Identity Self Service, click Manage. The Home tab displays the different Manage option. Click Users. The Manage Users page is displayed.
   2. From the Actions menu, select Create. Alternatively, you can click Create on the toolbar. The Create User page is displayed with input fields for user profile attributes.
   3. Enter details of the user in the Create User page.
3. On the Account tab, click Request Accounts.
4. In the Catalog page, search for and add to cart the application instance configured in Associating the Form with the Application Instance, and then click Checkout.
5. Specify value for fields in the application form and then click Ready to Submit.
