Considerations for Adopting Universal Role-Based Access

You are encouraged to migrate to universal role-based access as soon as your organization is ready.

Before migrating to universal role-based access, note the following:

  • Customers can continue to use legacy authentication until they are prepared to migrate.

  • Migration to universal role-based access is permanent.

  • Universal role-based access supports concurrent local authentication and SAML 2.0 compliant third-party IdP authentication.

  • Universal role-based access does not support authentication from services such as LDAP, MS Active Directory, common access card (CAC), and personal identity verification (PIV).

  • Advanced Analytics and Data Lake are migrated separately.

  • User email addresses are required for migration. Each email address designates a single identity.

  • Customers using third-party IdPs need to update their IdP configuration to complete the migration process.

  • Legacy Advanced Analytics identities are still needed to authenticate into Cloud Connectors.

    Note

    When universal role-based access becomes available for Cloud Connectors, Cloud Connectors will automatically migrate to it.

  • Universal role-based access is not available for on-premises applications.
