To certify that your users have the appropriate levels of access to your resources and applications, you need to populate the OpenText Identity Governance catalog with the identities, application accounts, and application permissions that exist in your environment. OpenText Identity Governance organizes data according to their type of source: identity or application. When you create a data source, you also configure the settings for data collection.
OpenText Identity Governance must collect information about users from identity sources. After OpenText Identity Governance collects this information, you must publish the information to populate the catalog. You can then assign these users administrative authorizations in the product. For more information, see Section 2.2, Adding OpenText Identity Governance Users.
