columnsToSearch

The columnsToSearch body parameter is used to return Management Roles meeting one or more conditions. Each condition specifies a property with a specific value to search. For example, to return a list of deprecated “All Access” Management Roles, the value for columnsToSearch would be set to that shown below.

"%[[][[]%<Conditions><Condition PropertyName=\"FriendlyName\" SearchValue=\"deprecated\" Operator=\"EqualTo\" QuerySuffix=\" AND \" StartGroupString=\"\" EndGroupString=\"\" Index=\"0\" SearchType=\"String\"/><Condition PropertyName=\"Description\" SearchValue=\"All Access\" Operator=\"EqualTo\" QuerySuffix=\"\" StartGroupString=\"\" EndGroupString=\"\" Index=\"1\" SearchType=\"Boolean\"/></Conditions>"

Remarks

In the above example, columnsToSearch contains two search conditions. The API returns roles matching both conditions. Each condition includes the PropertyName to search, the SearchValue to search for, an Equality Operator, a QuerySuffix and a SearchType for the relevant data type.

Search Examples

The below examples demonstrate how to use IncludedProperties, parameters, and conditions in columnsToSearch to query the API for a list of Management Roles matching the search conditions. Attributes returned for each record are set by the properties specified in IncludedProperties.

Get all High Security Management Roles that a specific person has been directly assigned to

Set the HighSecurity parameter to true, the PersonID parameter to the GUID of an EmpowerID Person and the ShowDirectPersonAssignmentsOnly parameter to true

{ "IncludedProperties": [ "FriendlyName", "ManagementRoleTypeFriendlyName", "Description", "OwnerAssigneeFriendlyName", "IsHighSecurity", "RiskFactorTotal" ], "Parameters": { "HighSecurity": true, "LinkedToApplicationID": null, "ManagementRoleDefinitionID": null, "ManagementRoleGUIDInherited": null, "NotAssignedToPersonID": null, "OrgZoneID": null, "OwnerPersonGUID": null, "PersonID": null, "ShowDirectPersonAssignmentsOnly": 1, "ShowTRBACRoles": null, "textToSearch": "AdvancedSearch", "columnsToSearch": "%[[][[]%<Conditions/>", "pageLength": 10, "resourceTags": null, "start": 0, "totalCount": null } }

 

Get all Management Roles owned by a specific person

Set the OwnerPersonGUID parameter to the GUID of an EmpowerID Person to return roles owned by that person.

{ "IncludedProperties": [ "FriendlyName", "ManagementRoleTypeFriendlyName", "Description", "OwnerAssigneeFriendlyName", "IsHighSecurity", "RiskFactorTotal" ], "Parameters": { "HighSecurity": null, "LinkedToApplicationID": null, "ManagementRoleDefinitionID": null, "ManagementRoleGUIDInherited": null, "NotAssignedToPersonID": null, "OrgZoneID": null, "OwnerPersonGUID": "d399765d-fcd7-45c9-913f-2b0c9e65f8b7", "PersonID": null, "ShowDirectPersonAssignmentsOnly": 1, "ShowTRBACRoles": null, "textToSearch": "AdvancedSearch", "columnsToSearch": "%[[][[]%<Conditions/>", "pageLength": 10, "resourceTags": null, "start": 0, "totalCount": null } }

 

Get all Management Roles by specific

Use columnsToSearch to return “Feature Set (UI)” Management Roles. Note the PropertyName for the search condition is set to ManagementRoleTypeID, SearchValue is set to 7, the Operator is set to EqualTo and the SearchType is Int.

 

SearchTerms

Each identity object in the EmpowerID Identity Warehouse has a SearchTerms property with a specific set of search values that can used to return all objects matching those values. For Management Roles, SearchTerms include the Name, FriendlyName, Email, DistinguishedName, and Description properties. When used, the API returns all roles where the specified search value finds a match in any of those properties. For example, if the search value is set to “Doc”, the API would return all the following roles:

  • Any Management Role with a match in the name

  • Any Management Role with a match in the friendly name

  • Any Management Role with a match in the email address

  • Any Management Role with a match in the Distinguished Name

  • Any Management Role with a match in the description

The following examples illustrate how to use SearchTerms to return a subset of roles:

Get all Management Roles where the search value for SearchTerms is set to “help”

Use SearchTerms to return the Friendly Name, Management Role Type Friendly Name, Description and Risk Factor Total for Management Roles where the search value is set to "Help"

 

Get all Management Roles where the SearchValue of the SearchTerm is a Description containing "Azure"
