How are group filters marked in SailPoint?

In SailPoint, group filters are marked as Group Factory. This distinction is significant because the Group Factory serves as a foundational element in the application where groups are created and governed. It allows administrators to manage the attributes and enforce policies related to group membership, ensuring that the groups reflect the necessary criteria and comply with organizational requirements. Group Factory essentially represents the mechanism through which the lifecycle of groups is controlled, including creation, maintenance, and deletion.

While the terms like Group Manager, Group Resource, and Group Entity refer to different aspects of identity and access management within SailPoint, they do not specifically denote the categorization related to group filters. Group Manager relates more to the roles assigned to manage group memberships, Group Resource refers to the external resources defined in the system, and Group Entity pertains to the overall representation of a group within the identity management context. Therefore, recognizing Group Factory as the correct term clarifies the specific functionality related to group filtering in SailPoint IdentityIQ.
