If you have Microsoft SharePoint and are running the User Profile service, you can configure EmpowerID to synchronize user profile properties. Then if a user changes a property on their profile, EmpowerID can bring in that change and push it to any connected account stores, such as Active Directory. You determine how SharePoint changes affect EmpowerID using attribute flow rules. You can also create a provisioning policy for SharePoint user profiles.

If you configure EmpowerID as a claims-based authentication provider for your SharePoint farm, you can extend EmpowerID's RBAC model to your corporate SharePoint environment for greater flexibility and control over how you assign user access.

EmpowerID SharePoint web parts can make the following functions available to a SharePoint Web Part page:

• EmpowerID management functions
• SharePoint Site functions
• SharePoint Group management functions
