User onboarding with help from AMS

Initial Argus Cloud Service onboarding requires you to create and/or to migrate users to IDCS. To do so, you can use the out-of-the-box option to import users to IDCS.

You can also perform bulk import with help from Oracle AMS team. The AMS team uses proprietary automation when bulk importing users.

Note:

If you have a requirement to authenticate by using a Custom Identity Solution (OKTA or Azure for example), it is recommended that you set up Federation before migrating users to IDCS.

For bulk user migration:

1. You prepare the CSV files for Users and Groups.
2. Create an Life Sciences CX ticket for the AMS team in which you request the users and group import. Make sure you attached the CSV files to the ticket.
3. The Oracle AMS team generates a pre-validation report by using the CSV files and then shares the report with you.
4. You review the report and either:
   1. Confirm that the information is correct.
   2. Correct any discrepancies in the CSV file and then send the updated file to the Oracle AMS team.
5. After your confirmation, the AMS team imports the users and groups information to IDCS.
6. The AMS team generates a post-import validation report and then shares it with you.
7. In case of any changes, see step 4.
