Configuring the Veza integration for Privacera

Overview

The Veza integration for Privacera supports discovering Users, Groups, and Roles from a Privacera instance. This provides insights into which users have been granted roles and capabilities on the Privacera data security and governance platform.

Configuring Privacera

This integration uses the Privacera Cloud API to collect identity and authorization data.

  1. Sign in to Privacera Cloud using your account ID or alias, email address, and password.

  2. From Access Management > Users/Groups/Roles create a new user with the Auditor role. Note the username and password for the user.

  3. Go to Settings > API Keys to generate a new API Key and save the value.

  4. Note the Privacera Account ID. This value appears at the top right of the Privacera UI. It must be a 14-digit numerical identifier, not an account alias.
