Managed Object Attributes

CA IdentityMinder managed objects extend ManagedObject, and ManagedObject extends AttributeCollection.

The methods in AttributeCollection allow a custom object to retrieve and set managed object attributes.

You access a managed object’s attributes using any of the following identifiers:

• Attribute constants defined in each managed object.
• Physical or well-known attribute names. The well-known attribute names are defined as the PROPERTY_ constants in the User, Group, and Organization interfaces, for example:

  User.PROPERTY_EMAIL

• Logical attribute names. When referencing a logical attribute, enclose the name in vertical bars (|logicalAttributeName|).
