I don’t think that is currently possible, if you need it please open a descriptive jira about it.  I assume that when searching the ID will need to be encoded before running the filter?

 

> How do I map an attribute from this SourceAdaptor to the email value for the subject?

 

Just make an attribute, e.g. “emailAddress”, and then set this:

 

     <!-- If using emails and need email addresses in sources, set which attribute has the email address in this source -->

     <init-param>

       <param-name>emailAttributeName</param-name>

       <param-value>emailAddress</param-value>

     </init-param>

 

Thanks

Hello,

 

First a bit about how I am currently configuring this subject API. ( in case it matters.)

  I am altering the sources.xml file.

 

 

Does this adapter support using Base64 encoded attributes as the SubjectID attribute?

                I am trying to tie to our IDM system and would like to use an operational attribute that is base64 encoded as the Subject ID for this data set.

                However, the system does not appear to “automatically know” that it needs to decode the value being returned from our ldap server.

                Is there a way to “give it a clue” so that it will do that for the attribute?

                If in include the attribute in the list of “attribute” to display when doing a search I see

 

How do I map an attribute from this SourceAdaptor to the email value for the subject? (or is intended to be dealt with some other way than the subject API?

                I was expecting something like, but I am not finding it in any of the docs.

“

<init-param>

       <param-name>Mail_AttributeType</param-name>

       <param-value>mail</param-value>

     </init-param>

“
