Attribute Definition Basics
All attribute definitions are configured in the IdP's resolver.xml
file.
Basic Attributes
Each attribute definition supports the following basic XML attributes in their definition:
- id - (required) used by the definition to determine its source, or input, attribute and by other definitions and data connectors to refer to this definition
- sourceName - (optional) used to explicitly specify the name of the source, or input, attribute used by the definition
Source Attributes
Most attribute definitions transform other attributes. A definition will determine the name of its source attribute in the following way:
- If sourceName is present use an attribute whose name exactly matches the given source name
- Use an attribute whose name exactly matches the definitions id
- Use an attribute whose name exactly matches the last token of the definitions id split on / or :
