Program Output

The conversion program can load the UAC database either of two ways:

  • Using the UAC RESTful API.
  • Writing to file XML.

Both methods have their pro's and con's, but the API is recommended. Use it especially when you are doing a phased transition instead of a big-bang.
 

Method

Pro's

Con's

UAC RESTful API

  • Easy loading.
  • Does not overwrite existing objects.
  • No Script and Credential support *

Write to file XML

  • Supports all object types.
  • Overwrites existing objects.

Manual load step.

* Credentials and Scripts are written to disk in a directory called //InputFileDirectory/@Stonebranch_Converted_XML/

(InputFileDirectory represents the directory where your input file resides.)
 

Import Generated XML

The following example describes the loading of a credential, but the same procedure is valid for every UAC object type.

You can import XML files in UAC by right-clicking on one of the column headers in almost every screen.
 


 

A pop-up will appear asking you to enter the full path name of the converted output.
 


 

Paste the path string in the text field and then click OK.

The UAC's console will let you know whether or not the import succeeded.
