Bulk load of identity data

A small user population that ranges from tens or a few hundreds of users might allow manual loading of identity data. Most projects require a bulk load process. Manual loading is likely to also require a manual refresh of identity data, which adds significant administrative effort to the project.

The ISIM data load mechanism can include JavaScript to define where each new user is placed in the tree. If we do not include a placement rule, all users are placed into a default organization. We must later move each user into the correct organization container.

To bulk load users into their correct organization container, you must define placement rules to place the user into the appropriate organization container. We can code JavaScript to use some user attribute in an identity feed for incoming Person object data. The process looks up the Organization container in the placement rule definition.
