Explanation
In SailPoint IdentityNow, provisioning is the process of granting or revoking access to systems and applications based on access requests or changes in user identity attributes. The scenario describes John Doe requesting access to the "Sales" profile in Salesforce, which is approved by However, simply approving an access request does not automatically trigger provisioning unless specific conditions are met: Provisioning Policy: For the access to be provisioned, SailPoint IdentityNow requires a provisioning policy that defines the action to be taken after the approval process. This policy is often configured to specify whether access should be granted or denied after approval. If no provisioning policy is linked to the requested access, no action will be triggered. Source Configuration: The Salesforce source (connector) in SailPoint IdentityNow must also be properly configured to handle provisioning tasks. Without proper configuration of the Salesforce source, no provisioning action will be sent even if the request is approved. Manual Provisioning Workflow: In some cases, IdentityNow might be configured to require manual intervention after approval (e.g., triggering a manual provisioning workflow or an additional step) to enforce the provisioning action. If this configuration is missing, the approved request will not lead to automatic provisioning. Since the scenario does not explicitly state that a provisioning policy or source configuration exists to handle the access request, the correct conclusion is that no provisioning would be sent Key Reference from SailPoint Documentation: Provisioning Concepts in IdentityNow: Documentation emphasizes that provisioning is triggered by defined workflows and provisioning policies that link the request to the connector source. Without these, the approval does not lead to actual provisioning.
