SID Mapping errors
This is a pre-existing issue, so could very well be environmental. We're not meant to be fixing pre-existing issues, but if it's something simple it should be addressed.
Any idea what might be causing this?

I'd recommend speaking with the SharePoint and/or sys admin, as this error is pretty low down in the SharePoint stack and is calling into native API's (advapi32.dll
LookupAccountName).

Add Ability to include query parameters
Currently the default query for Import All is "*"
In TRIM, you can drill this down, such as "login:*" to get all users with a populated login attribute.
Would it be possible to add the ability to fill in a query string on the connector page, which - when filled, would override the "*" sent to the endpoint?
I've tested this with the REST v8 and confirmed it works. Personally I need this for v4.1 but can see it being useful for newer connectors also.

Feature implementation complete and is included in the following releases:
- v4.1.1 RC3
- v5.0.1 RC3
- v5.1.0 RC6
- v5.2.0 RC4

Restrict access to IIS
I have configured IdB to use IIS, but there is nothing in the doco to suggest that it should be restricted.
http://voice.unifysolutions.net/topics/2943-configuring-identity-broker-for-use-with-iis/
Leaving access open to any authenticated user is potentially a security risk.
I have configured IIS to only listed on 127.0.0.1, but presumably there is something else in IdB to perform this role.
How can IdB be restricted when using IIS?

Hi Matt,
We removed the IDB auth settings from 5.0 as it was unmaintanable. From 5.2 onwards, we provide auth settings through Owin (as seen on this page.)
For 5.0 and 5.1, auth settings can be restricted in IIS through groups etc, using examples such as this one or settings found here. Up to the consultant and client how the restrictions look in line with what the requirements are.

Adapter Transformation Trigger Behaviour
Question about what triggers an adapter transformation to recalculate. Say I have a PowerShell adapter transformation that calculates the DN of a manager. Will that transformation only run again if the underlying connector is updated? If not, will an Import All on the connector trigger the adapter transformation to fire even on objects with no change in the connector?

Hi Daniel,
All transformations run when an entity is determined to have changed, see Change Detection for details. PowerShell transformations do not participate in the change detection process. However if you are calculating a manager DN based on another attribute on the adapter entity (e.g. the manager's detnumber or name), then the change to that attribute itself would trigger a change.
If the manager's details are retrieved via a Join Transformation, then any change to the attributes in the Join Criteria of both the entity in the base connector or to any entity in the relational connector which would join to the base entity will trigger a change.
The only issue you should encounter with changes not being automatically triggered for a PowerShell transformation would be if you are actually retrieving information from an external system as part of the transformation. There is currently no way for a PowerShell transformation to monitor external systems for changes.
Please let me know if you need further clarification.

Organisations: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
I am exporting Organisations to Sharepoint. As can be seen in the image below, the IdMParentProfileReference is being updated to include the full DN.
the following error is being thrown:
System.ServiceModel.FaultException`1[System.ServiceModel.ExceptionDetail]: Object reference not set to an instance of an object. (Fault Detail is equal to An ExceptionDetail, likely created by IncludeExceptionDetailInFaults=true, whose value is:

at S...).
The IdMProfileReference is a reference between objects, so is set by the DN of the Parent Object.
Do I need to configure the IdMProfileReference to the full DN, or should the adapter be converting?

Matt,
Please try this one: Unify.Connectors.SharePoint.SharePoint2010WCFService.wsp

An error occurred at the adapter level, before the entity was exported to the connector.

Hi Matt, Please replace the following DLL: Unify.Connectors.Microsoft.SharePoint.dll and re-request the schema - the RecordId field should swap to not required.

Connector Test Harness Not Working v5.1.0 with IdB Plus
I've attempted to install the Connector Test Harness . I unzipped the folder and placed the files in the web bin as directed. After a restart of the service there is no PlugIns link in the menu bar. I navigated manually to http://localhost:8008/plugin and it served a page but with just a title saying PlugIns and nothing else.
Installed components:
- Identity Broker 5.1.0
- Identity Broker Plus 5.1.0
- Identity Broker for Chris21 5.1.0
- Identity Broker for Active Directory 5.1.0

Hi Daniel,
Can you please remove Unify.IdentityBroker.Connector.TestHarness.dll
from the Web\bin
directory and instead add Unify.Connect.Web.Connector.TestHarness.dll

Add request failed as the converted DN blah does not match the request DN otherBlah
Seeing the error below in exporting users to Sharepoint.
Is there a DN requirement in Sharepoint?
Add request failed as the converted DN UID=18df1b3e-7787-429b-b0a0-ddad2ed4b1a4,OU=SPUsers,DC=IdentityBroker does not match the request DN CN=wxli,OU=SPUsers,DC=IdentityBroker.

Hi Matt,
This error indicates that the DN that you are generating in your IDM platform differs from the DN generated by Identity Broker based on the Distinguished Name Template for your adapter. You'll need to reconfigure one or the other so that they match. Just a note that if you use @IdBID in the DN template, you will also need to supply a value for the entryUUID field as part of your add requests.
