Search a Submitted IM Task by Task ID on View Submitted Tasks

Products

• CA Identity Manager
• CA Identity Governance
• CA Identity Portal

Issue/Introduction

When reviewing Identity Manager (IM) server logs, an administrator may obtain a specific IM Task ID and need to search for that task under View Submitted Tasks to inspect its details. Searching for a task strictly by name can yield multiple identical results, creating confusion and increasing triage time.

Configuring View Submitted Tasks to allow direct searches by Task ID streamlines troubleshooting and provides immediate access to specific task details.

Environment

Release : 14.5
Component : Identity Manager

6. Save panel settings

6.Save panel settings:

7. Submit changes

7.Submit changes:

Click Submit to commit the task configuration changes.

 

After applying these changes, running View Submitted Tasks will display an additional search filter: "Task ID equals". Entering an IM Task ID into this field filters the search directly to that specific task.

 

Additionally, the resulting task details page—and all individual tasks—will now display the Task ID at the top of the task window.
