FIM Reference: How to Flow msExchHideFromAddressList but Filter if the Value Is True

  • Article

PROBLEM STATEMENT / GOAL

In this issue, we had made changes to the msExchHideFromAddressList attribute to flow a constant value. However, now we need it to be null if the source attribute is null, and if the source attribute is equal to true, then we need to filter the source object from the metaverse. We need to ensure that a null value is allowed on Export Attribute Flow (EAF) as well.

HOW TO

  1. In the properties of the Source GalSync Management Agent
    1. Navigate to Select Attributes and ensure that the msExchHideFromAddressList is selected. If it is not, please select it.
    2. Navigate to Configure Connector Filter and ensure that you have a Filter Rule for msExchHideFromAddressList to filter objects if the value is equal to True
    3. Navigate to Configure Attribute Flow and ensure that msExchHideFromAddressList has Direct Import Flow to the Metaverse for User to Person
  2. In the properties of the Target GalSync Management Agent
    1. Navigate to Select Attributes and ensure that the msExchHideFromAddressList is selected. If it is not, please select it
    2. Navigate to Configure Attribute Flow and ensure that msExchHideFromAddressList has Direct Export Flow from the Metaverse for Contact to Person
      1. Additionally, on this Configure Attribute Flow, please ensure that Allow nulls is checked just below the word Export
