Edit schema properties

Important: SchemaClosed properties should only be added, modified, or deleted by experienced Synchronization EditorClosed users and system administrators.

All schema properties of a schema class are displayed in the mapping editor's schema view. There are two different sorts of schema property:

  • Schema properties of schema types from the target system and One Identity Manager schema.

  • Virtual schema propertiesClosed,

    • Added by the system connector to extend the target system schema or the One Identity Manager schema

    • Added by the user to extend the connector schema or the One Identity Manager schema

You can use virtual schema properties to represent combinations of schema properties as well as processing stepClosed results as schema properties. They are used amongst other things to map lists of members to One Identity Manager database auxiliary tables. Some virtual schema properties are added by the system connector when you set up the synchronization projectClosed. You can create user specific schema properties. You can use these, for example, to include customClosed One Identity Manager database schema extensions in the mapping.

NOTE: Virtual schema properties are only saved in the synchronization project. They do not modify basic One Identity Manager schema or target system schema.

NOTE You can use variables with fixed values in schema properties. In this case, variable names with dollar signed are included. If the schema property value contains a dollar sign, which is not used to label a variable, it must be masked with $.

Example: Enter the value '300 $$' for a variable with the value '300 $$'.
