SailPoint IdentityIQ Engineer Exam - Topic 4 Question 34 Discussion

Yes, this is a valid step to take when importing SailPoint XML file objects into IdentityIQ. The IdentityIQ console (iiq console) is a command-line tool used for various administrative tasks, including importing and exporting XML objects.

To import an XML object through the IdentityIQ console, the general procedure involves:

Navigating to the IdentityIQ installation directory.

Running the console with the import command:

iiq console import <filename>.xml

The console will process the XML file, importing the defined objects (roles, policies, identity mappings, etc.) into the IdentityIQ database.

This method is officially documented and is a common practice for importing configuration and objects into SailPoint IdentityIQ. Therefore, the answer is A. Yes.

Reference: This explanation is derived from the SailPoint IdentityIQ Administration Guide, which details how to manage XML imports and exports using the IdentityIQ console tool.
