Identity Management Module

Identity module is used to manage organization units, roles, users and their permissions, based on the Microsoft Identity library.

See the source code. Documentation will come soon...

Identity Security Log

The security log can record some important operations or changes about your account. You can save the security log if needed.

You can inject and use IdentitySecurityLogManager or ISecurityLogManager to write security logs. It will create a log object by default and fill in some common values, such as CreationTime, ClientIpAddress, BrowserInfo, current user/tenant, etc. Of course, you can override them.

await IdentitySecurityLogManager.SaveAsync(new IdentitySecurityLogContext()
{
	Identity = "IdentityServer";
	Action = "ChangePassword";
});

Configure AbpSecurityLogOptions to provide the application name for the log or disable this feature. Enabled by default.

Configure<AbpSecurityLogOptions>(options =>
{
	options.ApplicationName = "AbpSecurityTest";
});

Organization Unit Management

Organization units (OU) is a part of Identity Module and can be used to hierarchically group users and entities.

OrganizationUnit Entity

An OU is represented by the OrganizationUnit entity. The fundamental properties of this entity are:

  • TenantId: Tenant's Id of this OU. Can be null for host OUs.
  • ParentId: Parent OU's Id. Can be null if this is a root OU.
  • Code: A hierarchical string code that is unique for a tenant.
  • DisplayName: Shown name of the OU.

The OrganizationUnit entity's primary key (Id) is a Guid type and it derives from the FullAuditedAggregateRoot class.

Organization Tree

Since an OU can have a parent, all OUs of a tenant are in a tree structure. There are some rules for this tree;

  • There can be more than one root (where the ParentId is null).
  • There is a limit for the first-level children count of an OU (because of the fixed OU Code unit length explained below).

OU Code

OU code is automatically generated and maintained by the OrganizationUnit Manager. It's a string that looks something like this:

"00001.00042.00005"

This code can be used to easily query the database for all the children of an OU (recursively). There are some rules for this code:

  • It must be unique for a tenant.
  • All the children of the same OU have codes that start with the parent OU's code.
  • It's fixed length and based on the level of the OU in the tree, as shown in the sample.
  • While the OU code is unique, it can be changeable if you move an OU.
  • You must reference an OU by Id, not Code.

OrganizationUnit Manager

The OrganizationUnitManager class can be injected and used to manage OUs. Common use cases are:

  • Create, Update or Delete an OU
  • Move an OU in the OU tree.
  • Getting information about the OU tree and its items.

Multi-Tenancy

The OrganizationUnitManager is designed to work for a single tenant at a time. It works for the current tenant by default.
