About SailPoint IdentityIQ

SailPoint IdentityIQ is an on-premises identity governance platform that provides access management, compliance, and provisioning capabilities. Serval connects to IdentityIQ through its SCIM API using basic authentication (username and password). For the cloud-based SailPoint product, see Identity Security Cloud.

Prerequisites

  • Admin access to your IdentityIQ instance
  • The SCIM API must be enabled and accessible from the network
  • A service account with appropriate permissions for API access

Connect IdentityIQ to Serval

1

Gather your IdentityIQ credentials

You need three pieces of information from your IdentityIQ instance:
FieldDescription
Instance URLYour IdentityIQ server hostname (e.g. identityiq.company.com). Do not include the protocol.
UsernameAn admin username with permissions to access the SCIM API
PasswordThe password for the admin account
Use a dedicated service account rather than a personal admin account. This ensures the integration continues to work if an individual’s credentials are rotated.

Troubleshooting

“Connection refused” or timeout errors
  • Verify that the IdentityIQ SCIM API is reachable from the internet or your network configuration allows Serval to connect
  • Confirm the instance URL is correct and does not include https:// or a trailing path
“401 Unauthorized” errors
  • Double-check the username and password
  • Ensure the account has the necessary permissions for SCIM API access
“SCIM endpoint not found” errors
  • Confirm that the SCIM plugin is installed and enabled on your IdentityIQ instance
  • Verify the SCIM API base path is configured correctly on your server
