Step 7: Add a mapping to create AD accounts (tutorial)
In this step, we'll create a mapping for AD account creation.
Add the mapping
Go to Output > Mappings.
Click Add.
Enter the following values:
System: AD
Target: Users
Function: UserCreate
Name: HR500_AD_UserCreate
Click Save.
Configure the mapping
For the mapping's Filter, select HR500_AD_User_Create. For the Name Generator, select ng_AD. For the Password Generator, select pg_AD. The columns of these objects are joined together and populated into the Items pane.
In the Items pane, click the > button to preview the first record.
To bind these columns to attributes in the AD target system, drag and drop their rows from the Items pane into Value Specification fields.
Tip
Attributes with bolded names are required.
For this example, we'll map the following attributes:
Attribute
Item
Note
accountPassword
pg_AD
cn
ng_cn
employeeID
employee_id
Enabled
true
You must manually type in
true.givenName
first_name
path
OU=users,OU=docs,DC=t4edemo,DC=com
You must manually type in the path.
sAMAccountName
ng_sAMAccountName
sn
last_name
userPrincipalName
ng_userPrincipalName
Click Save.
Now, we'll manually test a single user create operation. Go to the Run tab. Select one of the rows in the Operation pane and click Run Selected Item.
Ideally, the user is successfully created in the target AD system.
Logs are returned in the Item pane. If an error occurred, click its link in the Context column to view more detail:
