Activate and Deactivate Provisioning Bridges

You can use Oracle Identity Cloud Service to activate and deactivate Provisioning Bridges.

  • Activating a Provisioning Bridge enables the link between Oracle Identity Cloud Service and your on-premises apps. The Provisioning Bridge can use connectors to poll the corresponding apps for changes to users and groups in the apps, and synchronize these changes into Oracle Identity Cloud Service. The Provisioning Bridge can also use these connectors to provision users to the apps. This includes managing the lifecycle of users in the apps by creating, modifying, deactivating, activating, and removing users and their profiles across the apps.

  • Deactivating a Provisioning Bridge disables the link between Oracle Identity Cloud Service and your on-premises apps. The Provisioning Bridge can’t use connectors either to poll the associated apps for changes to users and groups in the apps, and synchronize these changes into Oracle Identity Cloud Service, or to provision users to the apps.

Note:

Oracle recommends that you deactivate a Provisioning Bridge before stopping the bridge or performing any maintenance activity on the machine where the client for the bridge is installed.
