PeopleSoft connector

The PeopleSoft connector lets you manage and synchronize accounts between Oracle PeopleSoft and IDM managed user objects. A PeopleSoft administrator account is required for this connector to work.

Before you start

Before you configure the connector, log in to your PeopleSoft administrator account and note the following:

Host

The host address of the PeopleSoft instance.

Port

The port for the PeopleSoft instance.

User ID

The username to log into the PeopleSoft instance.

Password

The password to log into the PeopleSoft instance.

Domain Connect Password

The domain connection password for the PeopleSoft WebLogic application server.

Install the PeopleSoft connector

If you are looking for the Advanced Identity Cloud application for this connector, refer to:

You can download any connector from Backstage, but some are included in the default deployment for Advanced Identity Cloud, IDM, or RCS. When using an included connector, you can skip installing it and move directly to configuration.

Connector included in default deployment
Connector IDM RCS

PeopleSoft

No

Yes

Download the connector .jar file from Backstage.

  • If you are running the connector locally, place it in the /path/to/openidm/connectors directory, for example:

    mv ~/Downloads/peoplesoft-connector-1.5.20.26.jar /path/to/openidm/connectors/

  • If you are using a remote connector server (RCS), place it in the /path/to/openicf/connectors directory on the RCS.

Download the connector dependencies.

  • psjoa.jar is a file unique to each installation of PeopleSoft. It is compiled and provided by your PeopleSoft administrator. If it is not provided to you, refer to Generate psjoa.jar

  • psft.jar is generated by the following commands:

    set CLASSPATH=%JAVA_HOME%\lib\tools.jar;%CLASSPATH%
jar cvf psft.jar .\PeopleSoft\Generated\CompIntfc*.class

Generate psjoa.jar

This procedure is only required if your PeopleSoft Administrator did not provide psjoa.jar.

  1. Start PeopleSoft Application Designer, and open any Component Interface definition.

  2. Select Build > PeopleSoft APIs.

    The Build PeopleSoft API Bindings window displays.

  3. Under the Java Classes group box, select Build, and specify a target directory.

  4. To build the selected bindings, click OK.

    The app builds the selected bindings in the specified directory. If the operation is successful, a Done message appears in the PeopleSoft Application Designer Build window.

  5. Compile the generated APIs:

    • Windows

    • Linux

    cd %PS_HOME%\class\PeopleSoft\Generated\CompIntfc
javac −classpath %PS_HOME%\class\psjoa.jar *.java
cd c:\pt8\class\PeopleSoft\ Generated\ PeopleSoft
javac −classpath %PS_HOME%\class\psjoa.jar *.java
    cd $PS_HOME/class/PeopleSoft/Generated/CompIntfc
javac classpath $PS_HOME/class/psjoa.jar *.java
cd $PS_HOME/class/PeopleSoft/Generated/PeopleSoft
javac classpath $PS_HOME/class/psjoa.jar *.java

  6. Copy psjoa.jar and generated jar into /path/to/openicf/lib.

Configure the PeopleSoft connector

Create a connector configuration using the IDM admin UI:

  1. From the navigation bar, click Configure > Connectors.

  2. On the Connectors page, click New Connector.

  3. On the New Connector page, type a Connector Name.

  4. From the Connector Type drop-down list, select PeopleSoft Connector - 1.5.20.26.

  5. Complete the Base Connector Details.

    For a list of all configuration properties, refer to PeopleSoft Connector Configuration

  6. Click Save.

When your connector is configured correctly, the connector displays as Active in the admin UI.

Refer to this procedure to create a connector configuration over REST.

Test the PeopleSoft connector

Test that the configuration is correct by running the following command:

curl \
--header "X-OpenIDM-Username: openidm-admin" \
--header "X-OpenIDM-Password: openidm-admin" \
--header "Accept-API-Version: resource=1.0" \
--request POST \
"http://localhost:8080/openidm/system/peoplesoft?_action=test"
{
  "name": "peoplesoft",
  "enabled": true,
  "config": "config/provisioner.openicf/peoplesoft",
  "connectorRef": {
    "bundleVersion": "[1.5.0.0,1.6.0.0)",
    "bundleName": "org.forgerock.openicf.connectors.peoplesoft-connector",
    "connectorName": "org.forgerock.openicf.connectors.peoplesoft.PeopleSoftConnector"
  },
  "displayName": "PeopleSoft Connector",
  "objectTypes": [
    "__ACCOUNT__",
    "__ALL__"
  ],
  "ok": true
}

If the command returns "ok": true, your connector has been configured correctly and can authenticate to the PeopleSoft system.

PeopleSoft remote connector

If you want to run this connector outside of PingOne Advanced Identity Cloud or IDM, you can configure the PeopleSoft connector as a remote connector. Java Connectors installed remotely on a Java Connector Server function identically to those bundled locally within PingOne Advanced Identity Cloud or installed locally on IDM.

You can download the PeopleSoft connector from here.

Refer to Remote connectors for configuring the PeopleSoft remote connector.

OpenICF Interfaces Implemented by the PeopleSoft Connector

The PeopleSoft Connector implements the following OpenICF interfaces. For additional details, see ICF interfaces:

Create

Creates an object and its uid.

Delete

Deletes an object, referenced by its uid.

Schema

Describes the object types, operations, and options that the connector supports.

Script on Connector

Enables an application to run a script in the context of the connector.

Any script that runs on the connector has the following characteristics:

  • The script runs in the same execution environment as the connector and has access to all the classes to which the connector has access.

  • The script has access to a connector variable that is equivalent to an initialized instance of the connector. At a minimum, the script can access the connector configuration.

  • The script has access to any script arguments passed in by the application.

Search

Searches the target resource for all objects that match the specified object class and filter.

Test

Tests the connector configuration.

Testing a configuration checks all elements of the environment that are referred to by the configuration are available. For example, the connector might make a physical connection to a host that is specified in the configuration to verify that it exists and that the credentials that are specified in the configuration are valid.

This operation might need to connect to a resource, and, as such, might take some time. Do not invoke this operation too often, such as before every provisioning operation. The test operation is not intended to check that the connector is alive (that is, that its physical connection to the resource has not timed out).

You can invoke the test operation before a connector configuration has been validated.

Update

Updates (modifies or replaces) objects on a target resource.
