Email Address changes in Google Apps

Boyd Bostock 7 years ago in UNIFYBroker/Google Apps updated by anonymous 7 years ago 6

I am using the email address in the DN and have a requirement to allow accounts to be renamed. There are no other attributes that are suitable for use in the DN.

If I change the email address attribute it will fail (error attached) as it is being used in the DN. I have attempted change the DN however MIM is processing it as an attribute flow instead of a rename (error and screenshot attached).

User rename split out from user update so that it does only what is required. See v5.0.0.2.

Hi Boyd,

How are you attempting to change the DN?

Have you considered using the IDB ID in the DN template if no attributes are stable enough to be used?

In addition to what Curtis said, the email update is a little convoluted in code. I've done up another version that dramatically simplifies it (instead of debugging and copious amounts of logging). Would you be able to test?

Hi Curtis

I am attempting to change the dn using a Sync Rule. It is not treating it as a typical rename, normally I would expect it to be processed as a rename not an attribute flow.

I am using Sync Rules so cannot generate a GUID on creation, therefore the IDB ID is not suitable.

Hi Adam

If there is a way to roll back I can test, I would obviously need a solution to the rename first.
