What is a one sentence summary of your feature request?
Display a warning during configuration deployment if the authentication entity changes, or if a different entity is used for setInternalUserProfiles, as this can lead to loss of access.
Please describe your idea in detail. What is your problem, why do you feel this idea is the best solution, etc.
I would like a warning to be displayed whenever I perform a configuration deployment and there has been a change in the type of entity used for authentication (for example, switching from “AD_Entry” to “Directory_User”).
Additionally, if the entity in setInternalUserProfiles is different from the one used for authentication, all affected profiles are deleted.
For example, if “Directory_User” is used for authentication but “AD_Entry” is still set as the entity for setInternalUserProfiles, all affected profiles will be deleted.
This warning during the deployment process will help to prevent any user from losing access to NIM due to a mismatch between the two configured entities.
How do you currently solve the challenges you have by not having this feature?
Before deployment, we utilize tools to monitor configuration changes and ensure that all related settings are consistently updated.
