Selecting a Unique Key for a Profile Source
Each profile source must include a unique key that is used
to identify the user to the profile provider.
- If the Profile Source Editor is not already open, open
it now and display the Main Settings page.
- Under Profile Unique Key, select
the key that will be used to identify the user to the profile provider.
- Remote Unique Name — This is the default.
The user's imported unique name will be sent to the remote provider
to identify the user. Common examples are the GUID or User Name.
- Remote Authentication Name — The user's
imported authentication name will be sent to the remote provider.
In most cases, this is the same as the unique name.
User Property Value — The value
of a property associated with each user will be sent to identify this
user. Typically, this value is imported by another profile source.
If you select this option, you must also select which property
to use: click Choose
Property, in the Choose Property dialog box, select a
property and click OK.
To change the
selected property, click the property name.
