Issue/Introduction

Is it possible to create Privileged Access Management (PAM) Target accounts of a user via Identity Manager (IM)?

Working as designed.

Resolution

PAM cannot create target accounts, it can only make logic maps to Target accounts, hence why there is no create API

IM can assign and revoke PAM Target accounts, but it cannot create them:
