5. Filter and Schema Map Editors: What's New

(Home)     Previous     Next

1. Clear Option in Schema Map Editor

The Schema Map editor now provides a Clear button in the editors toolbar. This option allows the user to clear the contents/mappings of the schema map. The editor appears in its default state on clearing the contents.



2. Enhanced Synchronization Between Schema Map and Filter

If you specify the Default attribute settings option in the Filter editor, any attribute added to the schema map is created in the filter, according to those attribute settings.

For example, let's say that the default attribute settings defined in the filter are: Publish-Synchronize, Subscribe-Ignore, Merge Authority-Identity Vault, and Optimize Modifications-Yes. If a new attribute, say "cn", is added in the Schema Map editor, this attribute is added to the filter, as well with those default attribute settings that you have specified.



3. Add Comments in Filter Editor

The Filter editor now provides a way for users to add comments on the filter settings that is also in their Identity Management deployment. This way, users can explain the reasons behind values settings, like optimize modify and merge authority. The feature is available on per attribute/class basis. For each attribute/class, once they are selected, a text box appears in the settings column where you can enter comments. The first few words of the comment can be seen in the Comments section in the tree on the left side, prompting that a class or attribute has a comment without having to select it.
