Configure Integration with Oracle Unity

You can establish a connection between Oracle Access Governance and Oracle Unity application as a Managed System. To configure, use Orchestrated Systems in the Oracle Access Governance Console.

Prerequisites

Before you install and configure the Oracle Unity orchestrated system. You should consider the following prerequisites and tasks.

  • You must have an existing active connection with Oracle Cloud Infrastructure for your Oracle Access Governance service instance.
  • Oracle Cloud Infrastructure and Oracle Unity must reside within the same tenancy and domain.
  • Users must exist in the same domain as Oracle Unity service instance and Oracle Cloud Infrastructure IAM connected to Oracle Access Governance.
  • You must have an Instance Admin role in Oracle Unity.
  • Obtain application's credentials for your service instance. See Obtain Client Credentials for your Cloud Application.
  • Obtain Tenant ID and Tenant Keys for Oracle Unity. See Tenant Access Keys and Tenant IDs..

Obtain Client Credentials for your Cloud Application

Obtain your Client ID and Client Secret for an application.

  1. Go to https://cloud.oracle.com.
  2. Navigate to Identity & Security, and select Domains.
  3. Select one domain where your application instance is located.
  4. Select the Oracle cloud services tab.
  5. Select the Oracle Unity application instance, and then select the OAuth configuration tab.
  6. Under General Information, copy Client ID and Client Secret, and save them securely.

Configure

You can establish a connection between Oracle Cloud Enterprise Performance Management and Oracle Access Governance by entering connection details. To achieve this, use the orchestrated systems functionality available in the Oracle Access Governance Console.

Navigate to the Orchestrated Systems Page

The Orchestrated Systems page of the Oracle Access Governance Console is where you start configuration of your orchestrated system.

Navigate to the Orchestrated Systems page of the Oracle Access Governance Console, by following these steps:
  1. From the Oracle Access Governance navigation menu icon Navigation menu, select Service Administration → Orchestrated Systems.
  2. Click the Add an orchestrated system button to start the workflow.

Select system

On the Select system step of the workflow, you can specify which type of system you would like to integrate with Oracle Access Governance.

You can search for the required system by name using the Search field.

  1. Select Oracle Unity.
  2. Click Next.

Add details

Add details such as name, description, and configuration mode.

On the Add Details step of the workflow, enter the details for the orchestrated system:
  1. Enter a name for the system you want to connect to in the Name field.
  2. Enter a description for the system in the Description field.
  3. For this orchestrated system, Oracle Access Governance can manage permissions
  4. Click Next.

Add Owners

Add primary and additional owners to your orchestrated system to allow them to manage resources.

You can associate resource ownership by adding primary and additional owners. This drives self-service as these owners can then manage (read, update or delete) the resources that they own. By default, the resource creator is designated as the resource owner. You can assign one primary owner and up to 20 additional owners for the resources.

Note:

When setting up the first Orchestrated System for your service instance, you can assign owners only after you enable the identities from the Manage Identities section.
To add owners:
  1. Select an Oracle Access Governance active user as the primary owner in the Who is the primary owner? field.
  2. Select one or more additional owners in the Who else owns it? list. You can add up to 20 additional owners for the resource.
You can view the Primary Owner in the list. All the owners can view and manage the resources that they own.

Account settings

Manage account settings when setting up your orchestrated system including notification settings, and default actions when an identity moves or leaves your organization.

  1. Select to allow Oracle Access Governance to create new accounts when a permission is requested, if the account does not already exist. By default this option is selected meaning that an account will be created if it does not exist, when a permission is requested. If the option is unselected then permissions can only be provisioned where the account already exists in the orchestrated system. If permission is requested where no user exists then the provisioning operation will fail.
  2. Select where and who to send notification emails when an account is created. The default setting is User. You can select one, both, or none of these options. If you select no options then notifications will not be sent when an account is created.
    • User
    • User manager
  3. When an identity leaves your enterprise you should remove access to their accounts. You can select what to do with the account when this happens. Select one of the following options:
    • Delete
    • Disable
    • No action

    Note:

    The options above are only displayed if supported in the orchestrated system type being configured. For example, if Delete is not supported, then you will only see the Disable and No action options.
  4. When all permissions for an account are removed, for example when moving from one department to another, you may need to adjust what accounts the identity has access to. You can select what to do with the account when this happens. Select one of the following options:
    • Delete
    • Disable
    • No action

    Note:

    The options above are only displayed if supported in the orchestrated system type being configured. For example, if Delete is not supported, then you will only see the Disable and No action options.
  5. If you want Oracle Access Governance to manage accounts created directly in the orchestrated system you can select the Manage accounts that are not created by Access Governance option. This will reconcile accounts created in the managed system and will allow you to manage them from Oracle Access Governance.

Integration settings

Enter details of the connection to your Oracle Unity system.

  1. On the Integration settings step of the workflow, enter the details required to allow Oracle Access Governance to connect to your Oracle Unity system and then click Add.
