OpenText Identity Manager uses four main components to synchronize data between the Identity Vault and the connected system (external application).
The engine that provides the framework.
The OpenText Identity Manager policies that control the mapping of attributes and classes and the matching and creation of entries.
Event filters that control the direction of data synchronization.
The OpenText Identity Manager driver shim that serves as an interface between the application and the engine.
This section contains a brief explanation of the OpenText Identity Manager processes applied to data that flows between OpenText Identity Manager and the connected system.
