Table 1: Known issues

Known issue

Issue ID

Unexpected behavior when you use an attribute of type "String, Object Reference" provided by the Exchange Server Connector to update data in Exchange Server:

Quick Connect updates data in Exchange Server each time you run the synchronization workflow step that includes the attribute, even through no data synchronization is required.

This issue only occurs if all of the following is true:

  • You synchronize data from a source string attribute to the target attribute of type "String, Object Reference" provided by the Exchange Server Connector.
  • The source string attribute value can take a number of formats, including Canonical DN.
  • The source string attribute value is specified in any other format except Canonical DN.

For example, this issue may manifest itself when you do the following:

  1. Run a synchronization step that updates data in Microsoft Exchange Server.
  2. When the synchronization step completes, run the step again.

Observed result: The synchronization step updates the same attribute value as in step 1, even though the attribute value requires no synchronization.

WORKAROUND

Make sure the source attribute value is specified in the Canonical DN format.

Unexpected behavior of a workflow step that updates the ExternalMessage attribute in Microsoft Exchange Server with a plain text value: Each time you run the step, it updates the ExternalMessage attribute value, although the attribute value is up to date.

The cause of this behavior is that Exchange Server uses HTML tags to surround the plain text value you write to the ExternalMessage attribute. As a result, the value written to the ExternalMessage attribute is different from the original source plain text value known to Quick Connect, which triggers the update operation.

WORKAROUND

Use the following HTML tags to format the value you want to write to the ExternalMessage attribute:

<html>

<body>

[AttributeValue]

</body>

</html>

where [AttributeValue] is the actual value of the ExternalMessage attribute.
