Configure Attribute Mapping at the Relying Party

Define a set of mapping rules that Federation Manager can apply to the assertion attributes. Federation Manager lets you map a specific assertion attribute or a combination of several attributes. The result of the mapping can be a single application attribute or multiple attributes.

To configure attribute mapping

  1. Navigate to the Application Integration step in the Partnership wizard.
  2. Select the Enable Attribute Mapping check box in the Map to Application Attribute group box.

    An Application Attribute Definitions table displays.

  3. Modify any existing application attribute or define new ones in the table. All application attributes are delivered to the target application.

    The syntax of the value in the Assertion Attribute column must comply with Unified Expression Language (UEL).

    Select the slider button (<<) to open the expression builder and display the options available to you. To add the item from the list to the attribute value, select the assertion or special character and click Append.

  4. (Optional) If the default mappings are not sufficient, add as many rows as you like.

    By default, all assertion attributes defined at the remote Producer or IdP entity are included in the table with default (straight) mappings, which means that there is no change to the original assertion attribute. You can modify these mappings.

  5. Configure the method by which the application attributes are sent to the target application. You configure the method in the Target Application section of the Application Integration dialog.

Attribute mapping configuration is complete.
