Configuring Gender Attribute Maps

You can map the LDAP attribute name and values to the Liberty profile values for the Gender attribute. You can use gender to differentiate between people with the same name, especially in countries where national ID numbers cannot be collected. This is a Personal Profile attribute.

  1. Click Devices > Identity Servers > Edit > Liberty > LDAP Attribute Mapping > New > Gender.

  2. Specify the following details:

    Name: The name you want to give the map.

    Description: A description of the map.

    Access Rights: If you set this to Read/Write, you can specify rights for individual data items.

    For user provisioning to succeed, you must select Read/Write for any maps that use an attribute during user provisioning.

    User Stores: The user store that a map applies to. If a user logs into a user store that is not in the map’s user store list, that map is not used to read or write attributes for that user.

  3. In LDAP Attribute Name, type the LDAP attribute name that you want to map to the Liberty element Gender.

  4. In LDAP Attribute Value, type the predefined LDAP attribute values that you want to map to the Gender values.

    These are the values that you want to store in the LDAP attribute for each given Liberty attribute value. The LDAP attribute map then maps the actual Liberty URI value, back and forth, to this supplied value.

  5. Click Finish > OK.

  6. Update Identity Server.
