Question #: 12
Topic #: 2

Is this the recommended way to test lifecycle state transitions in IdentityNow?

Solution: Configure and enable lifecycle states. Find a test identity that is not in the target lifecycle state. Manually change the test identity lifecycle state to the target state from the admin user interface Verify the results of the lifecycle slate in the identity's activity page.

AYes

BNo

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: B

No, the statement 'This item is complete' is vague and does not represent any actionable configuration when implementing a JDBC connector. An IdentityNow engineer needs to focus on specific technical configurations like setting up schemas, defining SQL queries, mapping attributes, and ensuring the correct service account permissions. Simply stating 'This item is complete' is not a valid step in the implementation process.

Haha, I guess manually changing the state is the 'old school' way of doing it. Maybe they'll add a 'Lifecycle State Randomizer 3000' in the next update to make things more exciting!

Sounds like a solid testing strategy. I would also recommend checking the audit logs to verify the state changes are being properly recorded.
