What it is
A machine-generated snapshot of users, account state, groups, roles or application assignments from a central identity system, with the query scope and capture time preserved.
What it can prove
It can establish what the identity provider recorded at a particular time and supply the population for an access review or offboarding reconciliation.
What it cannot prove
It does not show that assignments were appropriate, reviewed or complete across systems outside central identity.
Common request situations
Access reviews, offboarding samples, privileged-access questions and security questionnaires.
Likely owner and source system
IT or security; identity provider or directory service.
Freshness considerations
Match the capture date to the period or event requested. There is no universal freshness period; explain material changes since capture.
Stronger evidence and weaker substitutes
A signed or reproducible export reconciled to application and worker populations is stronger. An untimestamped screenshot or hand-built list is weaker.
Common rejection or follow-up reasons
Missing scope, unclear fields, omitted local accounts, unexplained service accounts or inability to reconcile identifiers.
Redaction and confidentiality
Minimise personal data and never expose credentials, tokens, recovery data or unnecessary group names.
