Description

We’ve added new event triggers specifically for Identity Lifecycle State changes. These triggers are now available in both the Workflows and Event Triggers, giving admins more flexibility and precision when building automated processes tied to identity state transitions.

New Capabilities

Two new workflow triggers:

  • Identity Lifecycle State Changed
    Fires when the identity’s cloudLifecycleState attribute changes (e.g., from Active to Inactive).
    (It offers a more targeted alternative to the broader Identity Attributes Changed trigger.)
  • Identity Lifecycle State Change Processed
    Fires after the system evaluates and processes any configured actions for the lifecycle state change, even if no changes to access were made.

These triggers are now available under:

  1. Admin → Workflows → Triggers selection
  2. Admin → Event Triggers → Available triggers

Who is affected?

All Identity Security Cloud customers.

Action Required

No immediate action is required. To start using the new triggers, navigate to Workflows or Event Triggers and select ‘Identity Lifecycle State Changed’ or ‘Identity Lifecycle State Change Processed.’
