Account Move/Rename Operation

To enable the account move/rename operation, you must provide the uniqueAccountAttribute for the configured LDAP server.

For Oracle Internet Directory (OID), the default Unique Account Attribute (UUID) is orclGUID. If your connector uses a custom UUID attribute, specify that attribute instead. You need to configure this attribute using the following API PATCH request:

Copy
[
  {
    "op": "add",
    "path": "/connectorAttributes/uniqueAccountAttribute",
    "value": "orclGUID"
  }
]

Handling Binary Attribute for Novell (NetIQ) eDirectory

To handle binary attributes for the OID server, the attributesInBinaryFormat multi-valued configuration attribute is required. This attribute specifies which LDAP attributes to fetch in binary format.

Note
While this attribute is optional, the orclGUID attribute for OID is processed as a binary attribute. Therefore, it is important to configure orclGUID in the attributesInBinaryFormat list in addition to setting it as the uniqueAccountAttribute.

Copy
[
  {
    "op": "add",
    "path": "/connectorAttributes/attributesInBinaryFormat",
    "value": ["orclGUID", "<binary attribute 2>"]
  }
]

Provisioning for Move/Rename Operation
