Hello All, We are currently deploying the CyberArk SCIM integration with SailPoint IdentityIQ, and I would appreciate input on the recommended approach for managing privileged accounts (secondary IDs) through SailPoint **Current state:** The end user raises a ServiceNow request for secondary ID creation, SailPoint provisions the ID in Active Directory, and the account is then added to CyberArk manually. I am looking to automate the final step via the SCIM integration. I have outlined two candidate approaches below and would welcome any alternatives. **Option A: Discovery-driven onboarding** **1.** SailPoint AD connector creates the secondary ID per the defined naming convention **2.** Account is placed in the designated OU **3.** A CyberArk discovery rule is scoped to that OU **4.** CyberArk scans, detects, and onboards the account automatically **5.** SCIM is used to assign the primary user identity to the relevant safe group **Option B: Chained provisioning via the SailPoint PAM module** **1.** SailPoint triggers the AD connector to create the account **2.** A custom workflow step pauses the pipeline to extract the newly created AD account details **3.** SailPoint issues an outbound REST API call to the CyberArk account onboarding endpoint **Note:** I have previously built full lifecycle automation for this use case at another client, though without...
