Cyber Ark Integration

Just following up to see if you ever found any solutions for this, as our team is embarking on something similar soon.

No Mike, I guess the best solution for this is to run it through scripting/ shell scripting. So the following steps can be performed to get it done through script:

1. Run  configure.bat at <APPIAN_HOME>/_admin/_scripts/configure
2. select 6 - Tools
3. Select 1 - Encode password for JBoss Security Domain
4. Read Password from a file in certain location. (There will be multiple passwords. So step 4-7 will be repeated for each password.)
5. Provide a password to be encoded
6. The encoded password will be returned.
7. Update this password in datasource configuration files in JBoss from existing one.

As Start and stop of Application Server is through .bat file so we can execute that through Task Scheduler.

Alas we're using cloud so I don't think we will have the ability to run custom scripts in the Appian installation folders like this.  I'll reach out to Appian Support regarding this when I'm ready to proceed - thanks for the feedback.

Were you able to integrate CyberArc with Appian Cloud?

We ended up just using CyberArk as a place to store passwords, which we manually synced with the accounts in Appian.  At least for now.
