Mover Testing

This article will help you test and verify the proper Mover process in Clarity.

Testing

We recommend replicating the process you currently utilize for cases where users move and their access is changed, but limited to a specific role to begin with. Most often, these events are triggered through changes in your Source(s) of Truth.

Report

You can run the State of Access Report, to get a snapshot of the access the Identity has before the mover process.
Head to the Reports section, then load the State of Access report and filter to your Identity.

Verify your Identity Modified Workflow

Confirm in Clarity, that the workflow for Identity Modified is configured as expected. The image below shows the options available when a role change has been detected. You can choose to remove all access that doesn't overlap with the new role immediately, never, or a custom number of days.

Verification

You can confirm that the workflow was successful in a few different ways.

Clarity Identity Page

Loading the specific Identity the tests were run with, you can check the Applications and Entitlements tabs to verify what Apps and Entitlements they currently have access to. You can also check the Audit Log tab to view changes to this Identity. These views can be compared against the State of Access report to see changes.

State of Access Report

In the Reports section, you can run the State of Access Report again for an updated Date and Time will give you another point-in-time overview of the application(s) you are validating.

Audit Log Report

To access, navigate to the Report section of Clarity, then open the Workflow Audit Logs report, and finally search using the Identity ID of the particular user. You will want to filter this report to the correct workflow for your termination event, and use the context options to find your particular user. You can paste the Identity ID found in the URL address bar when you load an identity.

# Example Clarity Identity URL
# 50856 is the Identity ID for this Clarity Identity

Verify in your Applications Downstream

Compare the access provided by each of the roles, the role the Identity is starting in, and the new role in the relevant application(s). When an Identity triggers a Mover workflow, Clarity will compare the 2 Roles and their access. Clarity will grant any new access the Identity should have in the new role.

By default, access from the previous Role is retained during these events, but you can configure these to be removed immediately, or after a set time period.
