Including and excluding accounts

Click below to view a demonstration of creating a filter that excludes AD user accounts with "admin" in their name. In other words, to prevent Bravura Security Fabric from creating profiles for administrative accounts when auto discovery is run.

To include or exclude users or accounts:

  1. Click Maintenance > Auto discovery > Manage ID filters.

    Bravura Security Fabric displays the Manage ID filters page.

  2. In the Pattern field, type an ID or a regular expression that represents the users or accounts you want to include or exclude.

    Bravura Security Fabric preserves the case of account IDs; however, all profile IDs are treated as case-insensitive.

  3. Select Regular expression if the pattern is a regular expression. Otherwise, Bravura Security Fabric will treat the pattern as an exact ID.

  4. Select Include in system if the filter should include matching account IDs.

    If the Include in system option is not selected, the matching IDs are always excluded.

  5. Select a Filter on item to run the filter on all target systems, a single target system, or profile IDs.

    Filters on ”(All target systems)” includes ”(Profile ID)”. This means the filter will match all account IDs as well as Bravura Security Fabric Profile IDs.

  6. Click Update.

The following are examples for filtering users and accounts:

  1. To exclude all accounts starting with _service from an Active Directory target system:

    Pattern

    ^_service

    Regular expression

    selected

    Include in system

    deselected

    Filter on

    ADDOMAIN

  2. To include the profile ID JANED from a target system with the Use ID filters to include only certain users and accounts checkbox selected:

    Pattern

    janed

    Regular expression

    deselected

    Include in system

    selected

    Filter on

    (Profile ID)
