Edit the Configuration of an Active Directory Context Table
To edit the configuration of an Active Directory context table:
On the Overview tab, click the Options icon (
) to the right of a specific Active Directory table and select Edit. The Configuration panel opens on the right. On the Definition tab, you can modify the following information:
Context Table Name – Enter a new name for the context table.
Note
Changing context table names is currently prohibited in order to avoid breaking functionality in downstream applications.
Active Directory Collector – Select a different Active Directory collector as the source of the context table.
Click on the Review Attributes tab to modify the attribute mapping for the context table.
The attribute mapping table has the following columns:
– Shows whether a specific attribute is visible as a column in the context table. Use the icon next to each attribute to toggle the display on or off.Source Attribute – Shows a default set of attributes available from your Microsoft Active Directory. Some source attributes are listed simply as Calculated attribute. These are attributes that are calculated, either in format or in value. To view a description of an attribute and its calculation, hover over the Calculated attribute tag in the Source Attribute column.
Target Attribute – The Target Attributes column shows the Exabeam common user information model attributes that are mapped to the AD attributes in your context table. For an easy-to-read table of the default attribute mapping, see Default Active Directory Attribute Mapping.
– Indicates that an attribute is designated as the key attribute for the context table. The designated key and its mapping cannot be changed.
– Indicates that an attribute and its mapping cannot be changed.
You can modify the mapping of Active Directory attributes, that are not key or locked attributes, in the following ways:
Add an attribute that is not mapped by default – At the top of the Source Attributes column, click Add New Attribute. Enter a custom attribute name and click the plus icon (
) to add it to the column. It will be added with a custom icon (
) to the left of the attribute name. In the corresponding row of the Target Attributes column, click Add Target Attributes to map the newly added custom attribute to a target (see the next bullet).Add a target attribute – In the Target Attributes column click Add Target Attribute. Do one of the following to add a custom attribute:
Search for and select an existing target attribute to map it as the target.
Click Add Custom Attribute, enter a new attribute name, and click the plus icon (
) to add it to the list of available target attributes. It will be added with a custom icon () to the left of the attribute name. Then select the newly created custom attribute to map it as the target.
Remap an Active Directory attribute to a different target attribute – Hover over an attribute row where you want to change the mapping and click the delete icon (
) to remove the currently mapped target attribute. Then click Add Target Attributes to map a different target (see the previous bullet).
When you are satisfied with the configuration edits, click Update to save the changes.
