SailPoint Non-Employee Risk Management is introducing improvements to the user experience and performance of Profile tables across the product.

Background

Some customers with large numbers of Profiles in production have reported slow performance of these tables when searching, paging, or sorting.

Enhancements

With these enhancements, we have significantly improved the performance of these Profile tables. The improvements utilize a new back-end microservice (the "Profile Service") coupled with a read-optimized store of Profile data.

FAQ

Where have these changes been made?

  • Profile table visible on the lower 1/3 of the Dashboard page, visible upon login.
    •  
  • Profile table found under Lifecycle menu -> Profiles
    •  
  • Profile table found under Admin -> Lifecycle menu -> Profiles
    •  

What is changing?

  • Profile Service: The content of the dashboard Profile table will now be queried from a new read-optimized store of Profile data, which will allow for faster load times when displaying and refreshing the table.
  • User Interface: Key improvements to the Profile table look and feel.
  • Tab display: Tabs now feature borders for improved navigation.
  • Tab order: (Dashboard Profile table only): Actions and Requests tabs have been moved to the front, to highlight workflows that are awaiting user input.
  • Count: Table now displays count of items visible in the table. The count will adjust to what is displayed based on tab selection, as well as search criteria.
  • Profile name search field: users can now search for Profile names using regular expressions in addition to the simpler 'contains' search capability offered before.
