33.2 Exporting and Downloading Data

Downloaded data format and procedures vary based on the type of data you have. You can export data from functional areas in any order. Depending on the type of data, you can additionally download references such as references to business or technical roles, or associated applications.

To enable you to continue performing tasks even as the entities are being downloaded, Identity Governance saves the file to a download page from which you can download the saved file at a later time. The download page enables you to search for a file by description or download type (typically, the page where the user initiated the download). You can also use search strings to search for a file. You can delete downloaded files manually or allow them to expire on the date displayed in your Downloads window. You can delete all files individually or in bulk.

To export and download data:

  1. Log in to Identity Governance.

  2. Navigate to the respective page.

  3. Click the download link or select the appropriate action. For more information, see Section 33.6, Exporting and Importing Quick Reference.

  4. Type a meaningful filename and select Download.

  5. Select the download icon on the top title bar to access the saved file and download the file.

  6. (Optional) Delete the file from the Download area. If you do not delete the file, the file will be automatically deleted based on your download retention setting.
