Re: Returning multiple values for an attribute in Active Directory SOLVED
Thanks, Carey! That works! Sorry for not reading the manual more thoroly before submitting the question. Dwayne Martin James Madison University * From: Carey Matthew Black black@gmail.com Subject: Re: Returning multiple values for an attribute in Active Directory You on v7.1... so your in luck... I know this feature was added in some version.. but I am not sure exactly which one... REF the section Multivalued attributes ( Integrating-710.pdf page 123 ) Which goes on to page 124 to say: To resolve this difference between the two data models, use a special notation when specifying the attribute name in the Field Properties window: attribute_name[*separator_string] Values associated with attribute_name are concatenated into a single value in AR System but separated with separator_string. For example, to concatenate all values associated with the telephoneNumber attribute and separate each value with a comma you would enter the following as the attribute name in the Form Properties window: telephoneNumber[*,] You could then define workflow to extract, add, or modify values in the comma separated list of telephone numbers. If that works...then you should be good to go. -- Carey Matthew Black BMC Remedy AR System Skilled Professional (RSP) ARS = Action Request System(Remedy) * Dear List, We have created a vendor form based on ARSYS.ARDBC.LDAP that queries Active Directory for personal info. One of the pieces of info we need is all of the groups the person is a member of. The “memberOf” attribute can be a multi-value return, and when it is, Remedy is returning only the first one it finds (in our case, the first group). How can we get it to return them all?
