# Mapped Security

The Objective Connector supports mapped security. When you set the configuration parameter `MappedSecurity` to `TRUE`, the connector generates Access Control Lists (ACLs) and sets the `SECURITYTYPE` field in each document.

Supported security fields | The connector adds the following fields to each document. Each of these fields contains an Access Control List (ACL). `AUTONOMYMETADATA` - evaluate this ACL to determine read permission. `AUTONOMYMETADATA_BROWSE` - evaluate this ACL to determine browse permission (the ability to see that an item exists, but not read it). `AUTONOMYMETADATA_WRITE` - evaluate this ACL to determine write permission.
Security Type |
    Type=AUTONOMY_SECURITY_V4_GENERIC_MAPPED
    SecurityACLFormat=<E=B!>:U:<U=SLE+>:NU:<NU=SLE->:G:<G=SLE+>:NG:<NG=SLE->
    SecurityACLCheck=NU=[U]?F:-,NG=[G]?F:-,E=1?P:-,U=[U]?P:-,G=[G]?P:F
Use these values when you configure your Content component to process ACLs that originated from Objective Connector.
`SECURITYTYPE` Field Value | `OBJECTIVEREST` An index might contain documents that originated from different connectors. Objective Connector adds the `SECURITYTYPE` field to each document, so that you can configure your Content component to recognize documents that originated from this connector, and process each document using the appropriate security type.
Group server configuration | Create a new security repository and configure OmniGroupServer to populate the repository with user and group information by calling the connector's `SynchronizeGroups` action (`GroupServerJobType=Connector`).
