Directory Services › Update Object Attributes Operator

Update Object Attributes Operator

The Update Object Attributes operator performs all of the following tasks simultaneously:

• Add new attributes to an existing LDAP object.
• Replace the values of attributes of an existing LDAP object.
• Remove attributes from an existing LDAP object.

You can perform all three operations on the same object at the same time, or you can choose to ignore any of the operations by not entering anything in the operator's parameters.

Note: The Active Directory will not allow for a user's password to be modified unless CA Process Automation is connected to the Active Directory server through SSL. If CA Process Automation is not connected through SSL, a replace operator on a user password will fail.

For more information about how to import an Active Directory's certificate to CA Process Automation, see Add an SSL Certificate to CA Process Automation. Once the certificate is imported, you can change the Directory Services category's properties to establish an SSL connection with the Active Directory server.
