Cerner is a healthcare-related service which provides an integrated healthcare IT solution for large healthcare providers. The Cerner connector lets you manage and synchronize accounts between Cerner and IDM managed user objects. A Cerner system account is required for this connector to work.

## Before you start

Before you configure the connector, log in to your Cerner system account and note the following:

* Bearer token

  The bearer token associated with your system account.

* Tenant

  Your Cerner tenant ID.

* Region

  The Cerner Cloud region where the tenant resides.

## Install the Cerner connector

Download the connector .jar file from the [Backstage download site](https://backstage.forgerock.com/downloads).

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

  ```
  mv ~/Downloads/cerner-connector-1.5.20.15.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.

## Configure the Cerner connector

Create a connector configuration using the admin UI:

1. Select Configure > Connectors and click New Connector.

2. Enter a Connector Name.

3. Select Cerner Connector - 1.5.20.15 as the Connector Type.

4. Provide the Base Connector Details.

5. Click Save.

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

Alternatively, 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/Cerner?_action=test"
{
  "name": "Cerner",
  "enabled": true,
  "config": "config/provisioner.openicf/Cerner",
  "connectorRef": {
    "bundleVersion": "[1.5.0.0,1.6.0.0)",
    "bundleName": "org.forgerock.openicf.connectors.cerner-connector",
    "connectorName": "org.forgerock.openicf.connectors.cerner.CernerConnector"
  },
  "displayName": "Cerner Connector",
  "objectTypes": [
    "__ORGANIZATION__",
    "__ACCOUNT__",
    "__ORGANIZATIONGROUP__",
    "__ALL__",
    "__PERSONNELGROUP__"
  ],
  "ok": true
}
```

If the command returns `"ok": true`, your connector was configured correctly and can authenticate to the Cerner system.

## OpenICF Interfaces Implemented by the Cerner Connector

The Cerner Connector implements the following OpenICF interfaces. For additional details, see [OpenICF interfaces](interfaces.html):

* 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.

## Cerner Connector Configuration

The Cerner Connector has the following configurable properties:

### Configuration properties
