  • 1.  Using Admin Tasks in a URL

    Posted Sep 04, 2018 06:39 AM

    Hello,

     

    I have a  URL "www.newurl.mypage.com".

    I have made an Admin Task on CA IDM which is used to identify users based on a set of attributes and allow them to modify their profiles.

    I need the CA IDM Admin task to be triggered when any user uses the URL on the browser., i.e. when any user types "www.newurl.mypage.com" on the Browser window the user is automatically redirected to the IDM Task screen.

     

      User types "www.newurl.mypage.com" -> Redirected to "http://myidm.mycompany.in/idm/selfservice/imcss/index.jsp?task.tag=ModifyProfile "

     

    Where the Admin Task Name that I am using is "ModifyProfile".

     

    How to do this kind of configuration in CA IDM.. Any help on this would be highly appreciated.

     

     

    Thanks & BR
    Sandipan

    You can do a simple redirect on the index.html on  www.newurl.mypage.com:

     

    <meta http-equiv="Refresh" content="5; url= http://myidm.mycompany.in/idm/selfservice/imcss/index.jsp?task.tag=ModifyProfile ">

    Hello Gil,

     

    Thank you so much for response. It worked.

     

    However now I like to incorporate that IDM Task to the website itself.

     

    Website URL ->  www.newurl.mypage.com

    IDM Tasks URL -> http://myidm.mycompany.in/idm/selfservice/imcss/index.jsp?task.tag=ModifyProfile

     

    New URL -> www.newurl.mypage.com/idm/selfservice/imcss/index.jsp?task.tag=ModifyProfile

     

    How do I achieve the same? 

     

    When the User would be hitting the "New URL (www.newurl.mypage.com/idm/selfservice/imcss/index.jsp?task.tag=ModifyProfile) , the would automatically be redirected to the IDM Task URL, i.e. the IDM Task screen page would appear for the user.

     

    Awaiting your inputs on the same.

     

     

    Thanks in advance, 

    BR

    Three options:

    1. If the webserver has a redirector for the www.newurl.mypage.com/idm, then this can be done.
    2. Another option is to move the index.html to www.newurl.mypage.com/idm, but change the url to: http://myidm.mycompany.in/idm/selfservice/imcss/index.jsp?task.tag=ModifyProfile&task.RedirectURL=http://www.newurl.mypage.com
    3. A third option is to but a link on www.newurl.mypage.com to http://myidm.mycompany.in/idm/selfservice/imcss/index.jsp?task.tag=ModifyProfile&task.RedirectURL=http://www.newurl.mypage.com which will redirect the user and then sent them back.
