AD LDS Directory Attribute Variables

AD LDS Directory Attribute Variables

Issue

Customer has an AD LDS installation of Unified Workspace, and their AD Attributes are not parsing.


Solution

As AD LDS is basically running in its own directory, the attributes in the customer's main AD are not available in AD LDS.  Only specific attributes are synchronized from AD into AD LDS.

The following attributes will be synced from Active Directory and added to the AD LDS user object:

Active Directory Attribute
AD LDS Attribute
@@attr:employeeID@@
@@attr:swarehemployeeID@@
