SailPoint Certified IdentityIQ Engineer Exam Practice Test

Answer : B

The statement that 'the staging period is required' for certifications is not true. In SailPoint IdentityIQ, the staging period is an optional phase during the certification campaign configuration. The staging period is used to pre-generate certifications and allow for any preparatory actions or adjustments before the certifications are officially launched and sent to reviewers. However, it is not a mandatory component for all certification campaigns.

Administrators may choose to bypass the staging period entirely depending on the specific requirements of the certification process or the urgency of the certification campaign. Therefore, while the staging period can be beneficial for managing large or complex certifications, it is not a required step.

Answer : A

Yes, this action can be performed as part of configuring an application definition in IdentityIQ. When defining an application, you can specify provisioning policies, including which users should be provisioned with a basic account as part of a joiner event. This is typically done by setting up account creation rules or provisioning policies that trigger when a new user (joiner) is detected, ensuring they receive the necessary basic accounts and entitlements.

Therefore, the correct answer is A. Yes.

Answer : A

Yes, this is a valid step to take when importing SailPoint XML file objects into IdentityIQ. The IdentityIQ console (iiq console) is a command-line tool used for various administrative tasks, including importing and exporting XML objects.

To import an XML object through the IdentityIQ console, the general procedure involves:

Navigating to the IdentityIQ installation directory.

Running the console with the import command:

iiq console import <filename>.xml

The console will process the XML file, importing the defined objects (roles, policies, identity mappings, etc.) into the IdentityIQ database.

This method is officially documented and is a common practice for importing configuration and objects into SailPoint IdentityIQ. Therefore, the answer is A. Yes.

Reference: This explanation is derived from the SailPoint IdentityIQ Administration Guide, which details how to manage XML imports and exports using the IdentityIQ console tool.

Answer : A

In SailPoint IdentityIQ, every Link object, which represents an account on an application for an identity, must be associated with an Identity object. The Link object is inherently tied to an identity, as it is a representation of that identity's account on a target system. Without this association, the Link would not have context within IdentityIQ. This is a fundamental aspect of IdentityIQ's data model. Refer to the SailPoint IdentityIQ Data Model documentation for detailed information on the relationships between Link objects and Identity objects.

Answer : A

Syslog can be used to identify the details of a system error presented in the UI. When a system error occurs, IdentityIQ typically logs detailed error messages, stack traces, and other relevant information to Syslog or other logging frameworks configured in the environment. By reviewing these logs, an administrator or engineer can identify and diagnose the specific error that was encountered in the UI.

Answer : A

Yes, defining account correlation via a rule is an action that can be performed as part of configuring an application definition in SailPoint IdentityIQ. Account correlation rules are often used to determine how accounts from different sources are linked to identities within IdentityIQ. These rules allow for complex logic to be applied when matching accounts to identities, beyond simple attribute matching.

Answer : B

Syslog is not intended for querying or identifying specific objects, such as all Link objects from a particular application. Syslog is used to record events and log information related to system activities, errors, and operations. To identify all Link objects from a particular application, you would use IdentityIQ's internal search functionality or reports that allow you to filter and retrieve such objects. These tasks involve querying the database and application-specific data structures rather than examining log files.
