# Configure Content and Community

This section describes the configuration changes that are required in Content and Community to enable mapped security for documents that originate from Microsoft Teams. For more information about configuring mapped security, refer to the Document Security Administration Guide.

## Content Component

The first requirement is to add a field processing rule so that the Content component can determine whether a document is protected by Microsoft Teams security. Field processing rules are configured in the `[FieldProcessing]` section of the Content component configuration file.

The following example instructs the Content component to search for a field named `SECURITYTYPE` and check for the value `OFFICETEAMS`. The Microsoft Teams Connector automatically adds this field to every document. If the Content component finds this field with the correct value, it applies the property named by the `Property` parameter, which specifies the security type.

    [FieldProcessing]
    ...
    29=DetectTeamsSecurity

    [DetectTeamsSecurity]
    Property=SecurityTeams
    PropertyFieldCSVs=*/SECURITYTYPE
    PropertyMatch=OFFICETEAMS

    [SecurityTeams]
    SecurityType=OfficeTeams

After the Content component has determined that a document is protected by Microsoft Teams security, it must process the ACL that the connector has added to the document. Document security is configured in the `[Security]` section of the Content component configuration file.

    [Security]
    ...
    6=OfficeTeams

    [OfficeTeams]
    SecurityCode=6
    Library=./modules/mapped_security
    ReferenceField=*/AUTONOMYMETADATA
    //Logging=TRUE
    Type=AUTONOMY_SECURITY_V4_GENERIC_MAPPED
    SecurityACLFormat=:U:<U=SLE+>:G:<G=SLE+>
    SecurityACLCheck=U=[U]?P:-,G=[G]?P:F
    EscapedEntries=TRUE

IMPORTANT: Ensure that the `SecurityACLFormat` and `SecurityACLCheck` parameters are set exactly as shown in the example above.

## Community Component

The final requirement is to configure user security so that when a user logs on to a front-end application, Community can return a security token that includes their group memberships. User security is configured in the `[Security]` section of the Community component configuration file.

Add a new section for Microsoft Teams, similar to the following example:

    [Security]
    0=OfficeTeams

    [OfficeTeams]
    DocumentSecurity=TRUE
    GroupServerHost=localhost
    GroupServerPort=3057
    GroupServerRepository=TeamsConnector
    SecurityFieldCSVs=username
    DocumentSecurityType=OfficeTeams
    CaseSensitiveUserNames=FALSE
    CaseSensitiveGroupNames=FALSE

The `GroupServerHost` and `GroupServerPort` parameters should specify the host name or IP address, and ACI port, of your OmniGroupServer. The `GroupServerRepository` parameter should specify the name of the repository that you created when you configured OmniGroupServer (see Retrieve User and Group Information).
