The authentication object is assigned during automatic synchronization. You can assign an authentication object when setting up a new user account in the Manager. The authentication object cannot be changed after saving.

The following authentication objects can be assigned to a group authenticated user account:

  • Active Directory groups with the type "Security group" from the domain assigned to the farm or a trusted domain
  • LDAP groups from the domain assigned to the farm
Authentication modeClosed Authentication mode used for logging in on the SharePoint server with this user account.

The login name of new user accounts depends on the authentication mode. The authentication mode is set by a template. The value depends on the Claims-based authentication option of the associated web application. If you have defined custom authentication modes, select your authentication mode in the menu.

NOTE: Modify the template for this column (SPSUser.UID_SPSAuthSystem) to assign a custom authentication mode to user accounts.

Enter the following main data of a user authenticated user account.

Table 23: User authenticated user account main data
Property Description
Employee

Employee that uses this user account. An employee is already entered if the user account was generated by an account definition. If you create the user account manually, you can select an employee in the menu. If an authentication object is assigned, the connected employee is found through the authentication object by using a template. If there is no authentication object assigned, the employee can be assigned automatically or manually.

You can create a new employee for a user account with an identity of type Organizational identity, Personalized administrator identity, Sponsored identity, Shared identity, or Service identity. To do this, click next to the input field and enter the required employee main data. Which login data is required depends on the selected identity type.

Manage level Manage level of the user account. Select a manage level from the menu. You can only specify the manage level can if you have also entered an account definition. All manage levels of the selected account definition are available in the menu.

Account definition

Account definition through which the user account was created.

Use the account definition to automatically fill user account main data and to specify a manage level for the user account. One Identity Manager finds the IT operating data of the assigned employee and enters it in the corresponding fields in the user account.

NOTE: The account definition cannot be changed once the user account has been saved.

NOTE: Use the user account's Remove account definition task to reset the user account to Linked status. This removes the account definition from both the user account and the employee. The user account remains but is not managed by the account definition anymore. The task only removes account definitions that are directly assigned (XOrigin=1).

NOTE: If employees obtain their SharePoint user accounts through account definitions, the employees must own user accounts in the Active Directory domain or LDAP domain. This domain is stored in the SharePoint farm in which the SharePoint user accounts are to be created.
Site collection Site collection the user account is used in.
Group authenticated Specifies whether the user account's authentication object is a group. This option is disabled for user authenticated user accounts.
Authentication objectClosed Authentication object referencing the user account. Each SharePoint user account represents an object from an authentication system trusted by the SharePoint installation.

The following authentication objects can be assigned to a user-authenticated user account:

  • Active Directory user accounts from the domain that is assigned to the farm or a trusted domain
  • LDAP user accounts from the domain assigned to the farm

User accounts that refer to the default SIDs of an Active Directory environment cannot reference an authentication object in One Identity Manager.

NOTE: The SharePoint user account is also created if the user account that is used as the authentication object is disabled or locked.
Authentication modeClosed Authentication mode used for logging in on the SharePoint server with this user account.

The login name of new user accounts depends on the authentication mode. The authentication mode is set by a template.
