Hi,
The admin at my client place logs in through the end user interface. Is there a way to assign bulk load capabilities to this admin, so that he can load the users....all from end user page?
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks
Basically, you are asking for the bulk load pages in the admin interface to be exposed through the end user pages?
I do not believe there is an out of the box way to do this through the end user pages.
You would have to create a custom workflow that performed the bulk actions. Since the Bulk Actions functionality has it's own executor, it's would not be easy to seed a bulk actions task without some fairly complex Xpress that utilized the public APIs within IDM.
A little OT, but i increasingly found SPML a more convenient way of letting users do such specific tasks rather than customizing interfaces in IM. Made upgrades a lot easier too.

Hi Mr. Ankush,
Please give some example code to sun girl rather than just talking. I saw in lot of forum question you just talk in air rather than giving any concrete answer with example.
It will help sungirl a lot if you give her some working code about your saying.
Hope you don;t mind and try to keep helping people here
Hello sungirl.
While still OT (off topic), you may find the following somewhat useful, if considering SPML (from http://docs.sun.com/source/819-6127/web_services.html )
How an Add Request is Processed
The following steps describe the processing of an Add Request.
1. An SPML <addRequest> message is received. The request must include a value for the objectclass attribute.
2. The server examines the Configuration:SPML object to find the definition for the class. From the class definition, it obtains the associated view type and form name.
3. The server calls the Session.createView method to construct a new view for that type.
4. The attributes included in the request are processed by the class form. The results of the <Expansion> expressions are assimilated into the view.
5. The view is checked in.
You can process SPML requests in batches, so that effectively gives you a bulk upload of users. Wish I had the code, but I never worked on developing / incorporating the functionality you need.
Cheers,
Ankush
PS gvivek99: You missed the OT remark I made earlier.
