Overview

The <Column> element specifies a mapping from a column in a database table or an attribute in an LDAP result set to an alternative IdPAttribute ID. In most cases this is equivalent to aliasing a result column in a SQL statement, but may be clearer to look at, and in the case of LDAP it provides the missing aliasing capability.

Reference

Each <Column> element MUST have two attributes:

Name

Type

Description

Name

Type

Description

columnName 

string

Column name in the result set coming from the database or attribute coming from LDAP

attributeID 

string

Identifier to give the IdPAttribute representing the column or attribute

Example

<Column columnName="homephone" attributeID="phonenumber" /> <Column columnName="prenom" attributeID="firstname" />
