Configuring LDAP Collector

Hi,

The scenario is: I am trying to setup a LDAP connection where the user data is like -

User Role

John Role1, Role2, Role3

Bob Role2, Role3

So, basically it becomes a multi-valued attribute and the results are not as expected in the test.I am able to get the first value from the role column and rest are rejected. I have so many applications which could not be automated and have being doing manual review generation which is quite dis-satisfying and time taking.

Does anyone came across this requirement? or any alternative which can be used would be helpful.

Thanks!

As Ian said, it is not currently supported with out LDAP-based collector. Feel free to raise an new Idea on RSA Ideas for RSA Identity Governance & Lifecycle

You could also export the data (using PowerShell for example) into a CSV file and collect from that file instead.

Is there any alternative to setup such applications?

You should use ldap groups and group memberships to represent roles or entitlements.

This will work when I have AD groups but this case is for user attributes which are multi valued.

You can write your own collector in Java. This is always an option though not an easy way (or at least not easy for me).

Also you can write a script which exports your multi-valued AD attributes into csv and in a second step you can collect from that csv. Also not a nice solution but it can work.
