On Demand Migration Current - Active Directory - Directory Sync Advanced Mapping Guide

NewGUID()

• Purpose: This method is used to generate a random GUID

• Syntax: NewGUID()

• Example 1: The following expression will set the target object's CN as a random GUID; this is needed to avoid possible name collision as CN is not a unique attribute in Active Directory.

  Select mapping for ‘DistinguishName and double click, enter the below expression under value field:

  GetDn(NewGuid())

• Example 2: The following expression will set the target object's samAccountName with a random GUID of 20 characters long.

  Select mapping for ‘samAccountName and double click, enter the below expression under value field:

  Left(NewGuid(), 20)

Default Advanced Mappings

The following are the target attributes which contain advanced mapping values by default. The defaults differ based on the source and target environment type.

Note: Changing the default advanced mappings may result in unexpected behavior.

distinguishedName

Target Attribute    : distinguishedName

Value        : GetDN(cn)

Condition    : Null

Target Attribute    : groupType

Value        : GetGroupType()

Condition    : Action = "create"

Definition    : This will set the group type on creation. The GetGroupType function looks up the setting in the Template selected to determine the target group type.

legacyExchangeDN

Target Attribute    : legacyExchangeDN        

Value        : GetLegacyExchangeDN(Target.ExchangeOrg, objectGuid)

Condition    : Null        

Definition    : This default mapping will read the exchange org info from the target environment and create the LegacyDN using this value.
