How Access Profiles Work

Alex Tebbs·Senior Software Engineer·3 min

Alex Tebbs explains how access profiles in C1 group entitlements together and make them available to users through self-service requests, automatic provisioning, or attribute-based assignment.

Main Takeaways

Access profiles define groups of entitlements that can be made available to users in flexible ways.
The same entitlement can belong to multiple access profiles, allowing reuse across teams.
Profile entitlements can be requested and provisioned one by one or as a complete bundle.
C1 creates an entitlement for the entire profile, which integrates seamlessly with access reviews, automations, and delegated provisioning flows.
Profile membership can be granted automatically using attributes on the user profile.
Access profiles scale from simple self-service requests to complex identity management scenarios, all within a single framework.
