Identity Manager 8.1 - Administration Guide for Connecting to SharePoint Online

Specifying categories for inheriting SharePoint Online groups

In One Identity Manager, groups can be selectively inherited by user accounts. For this purpose, the groups and the user accounts are divided into categories. The categories can be freely selected and are specified using a mapping rule. Each category is given a specific position within this mapping rule. The template contains two tables; the user account table and the group table. Use the user account table to specify categories for target system dependent user accounts. In the group table enter your categories for the target system-dependent groups. Each table contains the category positions Position 1 to Position 31.

To define a category

1. In Manager, select the site collection in SharePoint Online | Site collections.

2. Select Change master data.
3. Switch to the Mapping rule category tab.
4. Extend the relevant roots of the user account table or group table.
5. Click to enable category.
6. Enter a category name of your choice for user accounts and groups and in the login language used.
7. Save the changes.
