Warning
This guide is still a work in progress and does not yet list all the connectors that are supported.
The CSV file connector is useful when importing users, either for initial provisioning or for ongoing updates. When used continuously in production, a CSV file serves as a change log, often containing only user records that have changed.
The XML File connector is really useful only in a demonstration context and should not be used in the general provisioning of XML data stores.
The Database Table connector enables provisioning to a single table in a JDBC database.
The generic LDAP connector is based on JNDI, and can be used to connect to any LDAPv3 compliant directory server, such as OpenDJ, Active Directory, SunDS, Oracle Directory Server Enterprise Edition, IBM Security Directory Server, and OpenLDAP.
The scripted Groovy Connector toolkit enables you to run a Groovy script for any OpenICF operation, such as search, update, create, and others, on any external resource.
The Scripted Groovy Connector does not support connector pooling.
The Scripted Poolable Groovy Connector supports connector pooling for improved performance and scalability.
The Scripted SQL Connector uses Groovy scripts to interact with a JDBC database.
The Scripted REST Connector enables you to connect to any resource over HTTP/REST. The connector creates the HTTP/REST context (specifying the content type, authentication mode, encoding, and so on), and manages the connection.
The Scripted CREST sample is a generic implementation that takes a schema configuration file to define the attribute mapping from the OpenICF connector object to the CREST resource.
The scripted SSH connector is an implementation of the Scripted Groovy Connector Toolkit, and is based on Java Secure Channel (JSch) and the Java implementation of the Expect li
The Kerberos connector enables you to manage Kerberos user principals. Users of the Kerberos connector are not expected to edit the bundled Groovy scripts. The bundled scripts use the kadmin utility to communicate with the Kerberos server.
The scripted PowerShell Connector toolkit allows you to create a connector customized to communicate with Microsoft systems such as Azure AD and Active Directory.
The Active Directory connector is a legacy connector, written in C# for the .NET platform.
The Exchange connector is a legacy connector, written in C# for the .NET platform.
