Fetch more parameters from Active Directory to Crowd to have complete user profile and filtering.

Ruwan Mettanand

When we are creating users in Active Directory, there are lot of attributes we are adding to user.

 

1. User-name

2. First-Name

3. Last-Name

4. Initials

5. Password

6. E-Mail

7. Company name

8. Company address etc.

 

But when the user is synced to Crowd, only following set of data are available to access from Crowd side.

 

1. User-name

2. Display Name (First Name + Last Name)

3. E-Mail

 

Can we retrieve more details for the user which are available in Active Directory side (such as Company name) to the Crowd side. We are planing to grant access to different applications (JIRA, Confluence, Bamboo etc) using this data.
