System data mapping

This page describes how data retrieved from the source service is mapped into records generated by the connector.

For each record type, the following information is reported:

  • the property name exposed by the connector;
  • the path from which the value is obtained in the source service;
  • any additional note regarding transformations, enrichments or special behaviours.

Each record mapping section is titled {Source Object Name} ({_type}), combining the object name used by the source service with the internal record type produced by the connector.

Common properties​

Each entry returned by an LDAP query becomes a record. The record contains one property for each attribute returned by the search, named after the LDAP attribute. The properties below are shared by all the record types.
