Create a Group Name Attribute Mapping
You define a group name attribute to map a common name to the underlying directory schema that identifies whether a user belongs to a specific group. The result of a group name attribute mapping is a Boolean value. You can use a group name attribute mapping to read or change a user's group name in a user directory. User attribute mappings are directory-specific.
Note: For information about creating a global object that returns group membership, see user classes in the Named Expression chapter in this guide.
To Create a User Attribute Mapping of Type Group
The Create Attribute Mapping pane opens.
The Create Attribute Mapping: Name pane opens.
Note: Common names must conform to the same rules as user attribute names.
Name: IsAdmin
Definition: cn=administrators,ou=groups,o=acme.com
Description: The common name IsAdmin is mapped to the group name cn=administrators,ou=groups,o=acme.com. If the user is a member of cn=administrators,ou=groups,o=acme.com, IsAdmin is TRUE.
The Create Attribute Mapping task is submitted for processing, and the new attribute mapping is added to the list on the Attribute Mapping List group box.
