Agent Integration Framework

The agent integration framework allows you to integrate custom agents into DirX Identity. You can configure these agents via job descriptions that are controlled by workflows and activities within the C++-based Identity server. Start workflows via schedules or with the runwf tool.

The following DirX documentation explains how to integrate your custom agent into the DirX Identity Agent Integration Framework

  • DirX Identity Tutorial → Follow-on Tutorials → "Integrating a Customer-Specific Agent" - this section of the tutorial provides procedures and examples that explain how to use all of the features that permit custom agents to be integrated into DirX Identity.

  • DirX Identity Customization Guide → "Customizing Connectivity Objects" - the sections in this chapter provide reference information about the agent integration features illustrated in the tutorial, including how to:

    • Use virtual object extensions to extend the DirX Identity objects with custom attributes.

    • Use design mode to hide custom attributes at specific object instances.

    • Find detailed information about automatic references that can be used to transfer your custom attributes into any type of control file (for example, INI files).

    • Create your own wizards for smooth and easy-to-use configuration of C++-based batch workflows.

    • Use the DirX Identity naming conventions, which make it easier to understand complex object structures.
