IdM - Temporarily Stop Emails

[former_member393151]

Is there a way to temporarily stop emails from the IdM System? We are loading privileges in a test system, and we want to shut off the emails on a temporary basis.

Thanks,

Heather

Hi Heather,

what you would usually do is setting the constant MAIL_DEBUG of package com.sap.idm.util.notification to "1". Mails will still be send, but only to the debug recipients (which is usually IdM admins). This way you assure ALL mails will be send to debug recipients.

If you want to disable it completely, you can either remove the mail-settings from the different mail events (e.g. NOTIFYEVENT_ASSIGNMENT_COMPLETED event) of the same package. This way you assure ALL mails related to those events will not be send at all anymore, but there might be other events, like approval mails. In order to provide the best answer, it would be helpful to know which type of mails you are referring to (approval, account creation, assignment completion...).

Regards

Norman
