Is this statement true about deploying and configuring IdentityNow's virtual appliance (VA)?
Solution: When using the AWS deployment option, SailPoint shares an AWS Amazon Machine image (AMI) with the customer's AWS account on a region they select.
Yes, when using the AWS deployment option, SailPoint shares an Amazon Machine Image (AMI) with the customer's AWS account in the selected region. This AMI contains the pre-configured Virtual Appliance (VA) image that the customer can use to deploy within their own AWS environment, simplifying the deployment process and ensuring compatibility with AWS services.
Key Reference from SailPoint Documentation:
AWS AMI for VA Deployment: SailPoint provides a dedicated AMI that is shared with customers in their chosen AWS region to facilitate the deployment of the Virtual Appliance.
Is this statement true about using the IdentityNow APIs?
Solution: The APIs are authenticated using a client-certificate.
SailPoint IdentityNow APIs are not authenticated using client certificates. Instead, they use OAuth 2.0 for secure authentication and authorization. API consumers are required to obtain an access token, which is used to authenticate requests made to the IdentityNow API. The token is typically obtained by sending client credentials (client ID and client secret) to the IdentityNow authorization server, which grants the token for API access.
Key Reference from SailPoint Documentation:
API Authentication: SailPoint IdentityNow uses OAuth 2.0 for API authentication rather than client certificates. Detailed steps on how to implement OAuth-based authentication are available in SailPoint's API documentation.
Is this an item that an IdentityNow engineer should configure when implementing a source that uses a JDBC connector?
Solution: Select the checkbox to use database admin as service account.
No, selecting a checkbox to use the database admin as the service account is not a recommended or required configuration when implementing a source that uses a JDBC connector. Typically, for security and least privilege, a dedicated service account with only the necessary permissions to read and manage identities within the database is used. Granting database administrator (DBA) privileges to the service account introduces unnecessary security risks and is against best practices.

Is this an example of a vanity URL?
Solution: https://identityNowacme.com
Key Reference from SailPoint Documentation:
Vanity URL Structure in IdentityNow: Vanity URLs typically feature a customized subdomain that reflects the organization's branding, and identityNowacme.com does not fit this pattern.
In an optimized aggregation, if an account is unchanged since the last aggregation, does this step execute?
Solution: The virtual appliance connects to the target system to retrieve accounts.
In an optimized aggregation, if an account has not changed since the last aggregation, the Virtual Appliance (VA) does not need to connect to the target system to retrieve that account's information again. Optimized aggregation is designed to reduce the load on the system by skipping over accounts that have not been updated, thus preventing unnecessary data retrieval and improving performance.
During optimized aggregation, only accounts or data that have been modified or added since the last aggregation are retrieved. This efficiency is achieved by using timestamps or incremental updates to determine which data needs to be pulled from the target system.
