Add Active Directory Custom Attributes

In Data Synchronisation Studio you can add additional custom attributes to the Active Directory synchronisation. When you save and re-open the project it will generate an additional file called projectName.properties.xml in this file you can add the additional custom mappings.

For example the default list looks like this.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Properties>
  <Property Name="objectguid" DisplayName="DSID" />
  <Property Name="displayname" DisplayName="Display Name" Updateable="True" />
  <Property Name="givenname" DisplayName="First Name" Updateable="True" />
  <Property Name="sn" DisplayName="Surname" Updateable="True" />
  <Property Name="telephonenumber" DisplayName="Telephone Number" Updateable="True" />
  <Property Name="mobile" DisplayName="Mobile Number" Updateable="True" />
  <Property Name="facsimiletelephonenumber" DisplayName="Fax Number" Updateable="True" />
  <Property Name="ipphone" DisplayName="IP Phone Number" Updateable="True" />
  <Property Name="homephone" DisplayName="Home Phone Number" Updateable="True" />
  <Property Name="pager" DisplayName="Pager" Updateable="True" />
  <Property Name="info" DisplayName="Info" Updateable="True" />
  <Property Name="company" DisplayName="Company" Updateable="True" />

  <Property Name="memberof" DisplayName="Member Of" />
  <Property Name="description" DisplayName="Description" Updateable="True" />
  <Property Name="physicaldeliveryofficename" DisplayName="Physical Delivery Office" Updateable="True" />
  <Property Name="streetaddress" DisplayName="Street" Updateable="True" />
  <Property Name="l" DisplayName="City" Updateable="True" />
  <Property Name="st" DisplayName="State" Updateable="True" />

  <Property Name="postofficebox" DisplayName="POBox" Updateable="True" />
  <Property Name="wwwhomepage" DisplayName="Homepage" Updateable="True" />
  <Property Name="objectcategory" DisplayName="Category" />
  <Property Name="distinguishedname" DisplayName="Distinguished Name" />
  <Property Name="adspath" DisplayName="AD Path" />
  <Property Name="samaccountname" DisplayName="Account Name" />
  <Property Name="userprincipalname" DisplayName="Logon Name" />
</Properties>

To add an additional mapping you would just add a new entry to this file and re-load the project or refresh the datasource.

You can also modify which properties can be written by modifiying the Updateable Flag to True or False.
