I tried the following UserUpdateJSON in my AD Connector but it is not updating my user object from the AccountImport.

{ "mail": "${user.email}", "telephoneNumber": "${user.phonenumber}" }

Can anyone give me examples of a working JSON?

Hi Anand,

Greetings!!

I am not sure, what are you trying to achieve.

did you mean "UPDATEUSERJSON" which is at connector level.

If yes, it doesn't has any role in Account Import.

To update your users in Saviynt (if AD is the Authoritative source for User Identities in SSM), you could have "USER_ATTRIBUTE" defined with mappings.

In case, you want to update Accounts at AD end, (If AD is your Target Application), you could specify "UPDATEACCOUNTJSON" and pass on your mappings accordingly.

Thanks & Regards,

Hello Anand,

Yes, I am trying to use the UPDATEUSERJSON in the AD Connector.

AD is not my source of record for user identities.

I have a User import running from my HR system.

I have Active Directory configured as an Application, using the AD Connector.

I want to update the Email field from AD to the Email field of the User object.

I thought that if I configure the UPDATEUSERJSON in my AD connection, it will update the user when AD Import job runs.

If that is not the case, do let me know how I can achieve my objective.

This can be achieved via User import. You could configure related mapping in User_Attribute and post import, you would be able to witness changes in your User attributes. To make sure, this will be an additional usersource for you and you should bring only those attributes along with username what you want to update. Thanks and Regards, Anand Kumar Jha
