Panel Provider for Active Directory

The Panel Provider for Active Directory allows data from Active Directory to be scanned and updated from the Identity Panel suite of applications. 

Identity Panel App

The Panel Provider for Active Directory adds the following capabilities to the Identity Panel App

• Scan any objects and attributes for visualization within the Time Traveler
• Restore objects or attributes to Active Directory
• Bulk update Active Directory

Service Panel App

The Panel Provider for Active Directory adds the ability for Service Panel to create, modify, and remove object and attribute data within Active Directory.

Access Panel App

The Panel Provider for Active Directory adds the ability for Access Panel to create, modify, and remove object and attribute data within Active Directory.

Test Panel App

Allows for the Test Panel App to create test data in Active Directory for each test case or suite. Additionally, Test Panel with this Provider allows for the rollback deletion of test case data and results. The capability includes creating, validating (asserting), and removing organizational units, users, groups, and objects, as part of your overall test case or suite. 

Microsoft Identity Manager - MIM Service Port

Allows Microsoft Identity Manager to write to Active Directory through Identity Panel's MIM Service Port. This is used my cloud hosted Microsoft Identity Manager servers that want to scan, provision, and update Active Directory through secure cloud hosted HTTPS REST endpoint, avoiding the need for a VPN to the target Active Directory. 

Licensing

This product is licensed per domain. You need one license for each Active Directory Domain you choose to scan and target. If you are an on-premise customer, you only need one license for all of your instances. If you are a SaaS customer, you only need one license for all of your tenants. This single license per domain across your development, test, and production instances of Identity Panel reduces your license costs. 

You do not need a license if you are not scanning and updating Active Directory directly. For example, if MIM is scanning and updating Active Directory, you will see your scanned and updated Active Directory information in the Time Traveler using the Panel Provider for Microsoft Identity Manager, which is licensed separately. However, many customers choose to purchase the Panel Provider for Active Directory to allow Service Panel or Access Panel to update the directory directly, to perform bulk updates from Identity Panel, and to restore data from the Time Traveler.
