Importing a Single LDAP Attribute with Multiple Values

Individual attributes in LDAP directories or data files can contain multiple values. For example, a MemberOf attribute can contain all the mail groups or email distribution lists that a user belongs to.

Account Import automatically writes multiple LDAP values to multiple values of a specific CA DLP user attribute. For example, you can import all the MemberOf distribution lists that a CA DLP user belongs to as separate values for an attribute renamed to Email Distribution Lists (example 2 in the screenshot below).
