Configuring Account Schema

The application schema is used to configure the objects returned from a connector. When a connector is called, the schema is supplied to the methods on the connector interface. This connector currently supports two types of objects, accounts (users and contacts) and group. Account objects are used when building identities Link objects. The group schema is used when building Account_Group objects that are used to hold entitlements shared across identities.

Note

The Account Schema tab is used to define the attributes for each object type in the application being configured. The schema attributes can be defined as Entitlement or Multi-Valued.
The schema attributes that are not present in the out-of-the-box must be defined as string if not specified.
For more information on the account schema attributes, see Schema Attributes Reference.
