The PIP Management area in the Platform is where you connect external systems and shape their data so it can be used during Policy evaluation. It lets you define Data Sources, build Views, and optimize performance with caching, so the Runtime can retrieve the right Attributes when making authorization decisions.
This section includes the following articles:
-
Data Sources
Configure connections to external systems, including JDBC and LDAP, as well as Service Data Sources like REST, Entra ID, Azure Cosmos DB, and other supported integrations. It also covers authentication options such as OAuth2. -
Managing Views
Create Views that present external data in a Policy-friendly format, as well as manage cached Views. Views behave like virtual tables and can combine, filter, and transform data from one or more Data Sources so it can be consumed as Identity or Asset information. -
PIP Operator Service
Control how configuration changes are applied across a PAA Group, including safe update workflows that help prevent disruption in production environments.
