Service Data Sources allow you to connect PlainID to external services for real-time retrieval and enrichment of identity or contextual data. These integrations allow you to evaluate access requests based on up-to-date information from your organization’s systems and identity providers.
Each Service Data Source is designed to handle specific types of connections or data structures, ensuring secure and efficient communication between PlainID and the external service.
The following Service Data Sources are supported:
REST Data Source
– Connect to any RESTful API to retrieve or exchange data dynamically during Policy evaluation.
Microsoft Entra ID Data Source
– Integrate with Microsoft Entra ID (Azure AD) to access identity attributes, group memberships, and enriched claims for authorization decisions.
Azure Cosmos DB Database
– Query and retrieve data from Azure Cosmos DB to support fine-grained, data-level access control.
OAuth2 Authentication Support
– Use OAuth2-based integrations to securely connect PlainID with external systems that require token-based authorization.
These Service Data Sources provide a foundation for building adaptive, data-driven access policies that align with your organization’s security and compliance requirements.
