An identity management system detects the occurrence of a trigger event, such as a time period expiration, or an action on the identity management system. The identity management system accordingly generates a new password for an account of a user on a third-party service and causes the account of the user on the third-party service to use the new password. The identity management system can also detect a manual user change of a password for a third-party service and cause configuration of client devices of the user to reflect the new password.

Automated password generation and change

An identity management system provides single sign-on (SSO) services to clients, logging the clients into a variety of third-party services for which the clients have accounts. An SSO integration is stored for each of the third-party services, the SSO integration including information that allows the identity management system to automate the login for the corresponding third-party service, such as locations of the login pages, and/or identities of username and password fields. The identity management system uses different techniques in different embodiments to detect that a given SSO integration is broken (i.e., no longer permits login for its corresponding third-party service) and/or to repair the SSO integration.

Detection and repair of broken single sign-on integration

An identity management system detects the occurrence of a trigger event, such as a time period expiration, or an action on the identity management system. The identity management system accordingly generates a new password for an account of a user on a third-party service and causes the account of the user on the third-party service to use the new password. The identity management system may also a mobile device management system to configure a client of the user with the new password.
