Build and Configure NIM
Build & configure
Build reliable identity automation in the same order work happens: connect systems, prepare the right data, define controlled changes, and run them safely.
This area is the Studio-aligned feature reference. Use it when you know the NIM capability you need, or follow the sequence below when building a new process. For an outcome-focused path, start with Identity solutions; for routine monitoring and maintenance, use Administration & operations.
