Where is OnePass to DataRoom Contact/user association stored?
Ross Bradbury
Where is the association between OnePass and DataRoom user stored? For example, is it stored on the DataRoom contact or is it stored in a separate system?

Hey Ross,
There's not a 1 to 1 mapping of OnePass to Data Room Contact/Users anywhere. OnePass is just the authentication piece. I could have 10 accounts added to a single OnePass username so I only have to login to a product with a single username and password, but then subsequently need to decide which account to use. The mapping of the product account to which data room user for many products that use OnePass is in the business system or SAP. But that's not a rule across the board. Take WestlawNext for an example. SAP keeps track of each user for WLN. They're assigned a user guid. Since WLN access Data Room, at the same time they provision a Data Room account (which ultimately creates a User (Contact Card with a user guid) in the Data Room and associate it within SAP.
So If I'm interpreting what you're asking, the Business System is what contains the mapping, but it doesn't really relate to OnePass. It's less about authentication or Single Sign On and more about account provisioning.

I understood that it was not a 1:1 mapping. It makes a bit more sense now thinking about needing DataRoom "credentials" (in the form of a work product token) to access DataRoom at all. If I understand you, you are saying that the association between DataRoom-assigned user GUID and the authentication piece has to be stored external to data room, correct?
matt.dimich
Yup. Your understanding sounds correct.

Where can one find the definition of *Business System*? I imagine that Prism is one of these? I found

but it doesn't help.
