Identity operations automation
Keep identity management workflows running when timing, order, and reliability matter.
UNIFYNow monitors connected applications for identity events and triggers the right operational steps so synchronisation, provisioning, and governance workflows run consistently.
Why it matters
Identity management is only reliable when the operations around it are reliable.
Many identity environments depend on scheduled jobs, synchronisation steps, imports, exports, and operational workflows that have to happen in the right order.
UNIFYNow gives those operations a dedicated automation layer, reducing manual intervention and helping identity teams keep business-critical identity processes moving.
Proactively monitor connected applications
Connect to applications in the identity management solution, subscribe to notifications where possible, and query for changes on a schedule where needed.
Operate identity management processes
Automatically trigger imports, exports, synchronisation steps, and operational tasks so identity workflows continue to run reliably.
Build repeatable workflows
Group operations into workflow lists that can run consistently in response to defined events, timings, and dependencies.
Extend to fit the environment
Adapt monitoring, application connectivity, operational steps, and reporting patterns to match the identity platform being managed.
Operating model
Monitor events, sequence operations, and keep identity workflows observable.
UNIFYNow sits alongside the identity management platform and connected applications. It watches for the triggers that matter, runs the defined operations, and gives teams a clearer operational model for recurring identity work.
Detect
Identify identity events, data changes, schedules, or operational conditions that should start a workflow.
Sequence
Run the right operations in the right order across connected applications and identity management components.
Observe
Keep operators informed about execution, exceptions, and the health of recurring identity operations.
Where it fits today
UNIFYNow is valuable where established identity operations still need disciplined automation.
UNIFYNow is often most relevant in environments that still depend on MIM-era operational workflows, hybrid directory processes, or custom identity management tasks that need predictable scheduling and sequencing.
For new lifecycle integration patterns, explore UNIFYConnect. For existing Microsoft Identity Manager environments, see MIM support and transition.
Works with
UNIFYNow supports identity operations across familiar enterprise systems.
UNIFYNow is commonly used around directory, database, scripting, and identity management components where operational jobs need to be monitored, scheduled, or sequenced.
Integration role
Product type
Vendor
Microsoft Active Directory Domain Services
Supported by UNIFYNow and UNIFYConnect
Microsoft Active Directory Domain Services is a core supported directory target in UNIFY hybrid identity architectures for provisioning and lifecycle control.
Microsoft Forefront Identity Manager
Supported by UNIFYMonitor, UNIFYNow, and UNIFYConnect
Microsoft Forefront Identity Manager is supported by UNIFY for provisioning, synchronisation, and governed identity lifecycle operations.
Microsoft Identity Manager
Supported by UNIFYMonitor, UNIFYNow, and UNIFYConnect
Microsoft Identity Manager is supported by UNIFY for provisioning, synchronisation, and governed identity lifecycle operations.
Microsoft SQL Server
Supported by UNIFYConnect and UNIFYNow
Microsoft SQL Server is supported by UNIFY as a data source for identity automation and governance workflows backed by operational databases.
PowerShell
Supported by UNIFYConnect and UNIFYNow
PowerShell can be used by UNIFY as a supported automation interface for downstream provisioning, orchestration, and operational identity tasks.
UNIFYConnect
Supported by UNIFYMonitor, UNIFYNow, and UNIFYConnect
UNIFYConnect is UNIFY’s identity lifecycle integration platform for linking authoritative sources to downstream provisioning, access control, and governance outcomes.
Deployment patterns
Use it where operational continuity is the problem to solve.
UNIFYNow is not a replacement for the identity platform itself. It is an operational automation layer for environments where reliability depends on recurring jobs, system events, and controlled sequencing.
MIM and legacy identity operations
Useful where Microsoft Identity Manager or similar operational workflows still need stable orchestration.
Hybrid synchronisation support
Coordinate jobs that bridge directories, SQL data, PowerShell tasks, and other connected systems.
Operational control
Reduce dependency on manual runbooks by making repeatable identity operations explicit and traceable.
