Configure Multi-Valued Attributes in the Self-Service Portal

Applies To

Directory Manager 11

Overview

This article explains how to configure the Self-Service portal in Netwrix Directory Manager (formerly GroupID) to support multi-valued attributes, using carLicense as an example.

Multi-valued attributes in Active Directory, such as carLicense or phone numbers, allow users to store multiple unique values in a single field. In contrast, single-valued attributes, such as names, can hold only one value. Active Directory does not create attributes with empty values, and each value in a multi-valued attribute must be unique.

Instructions

1. In the Directory Manager Admin Center, go to Applications. On the application or portal where you want to add the attribute, click the three-dot icon and select Settings.

   

2. Under Design Settings, expand your identity store’s name.

   

3. On the Properties tab, select User from the Select Directory Object list.

4. Select General in the Name list and click the edit symbol under Actions.

   

5. On the Edit Design Category page, click Add Field.

   

6. Select the carLicense attribute in the Field list, enter the display name as carLicense, and set the display type to MultiValue.

   

7. Click OK. Scroll down and click Save.

8. Launch the user portal. The carLicense multi-valued box appears on the General tab in user properties.

9. To add a license number, click Add, enter the license number, and click OK. You can add multiple license numbers to this field.

   

10. View the license numbers added to the user's profile.
