Linking an IDM Task to the Portal

[former_member2987]

Hello experts!

We have a reqirement to place a link for an IDM task in portal.

I suspect that is not all that difficult. Here's the difficult part:

We want the link to show up after login and not allow any other portal access until the user completes a task in IDM (filling out their anonymous authentication questions)

If anyone can point me to some documentation on this, I'd appreciate it.

Cheers,

Matt

Hi Matt

We have got this solution working at a few customers; in brief u2026

IDM creates a user and assigns their business roles but assigns a portal role called u201Cauthentication_questions_requiredu201D that symbolises authentication questions are to be set

The portal then has a display rule based upon that role that directs them to a desktop/framework page that contains only the IDM authentication questions iView

Once the user has set their authentication questions IDM then removes the portal role u201Cauthentication_questions_requiredu201D

This allows the user to logon to the portal and in turn is assigned the default portal framework displaying their standard business functions/roles.

Hope it helps

Hi,

I would suggest to ask on portal forum. Guys over there might have some ideas how to achieve this in portal. But I have an idea for case when you use IdM for portal roles provisioning. You can remove all portal roles from all users and assign a basic role which access only to IdM task. After a user sets answers for security questions you can provision proper roles to user.

Martin,

That's the tentative solution we are looking at it, but we really don't like it for a number of reasons. I'll try over on Portal as well.

Thanks,

Matt
