The following article presents a brief description of common LDAP attributes.

Such attributes can be mapped directly into Bizagi's WFUser System Entity's attributes through the LDAP synchronization feature.

For more information about this feature, refer to Importing LDAP Users.

Refer to the table below to view how to address attributes in your LDAP Server as information possibly useful in your Bizagi end users.

For further and official information about LDAP attributes and the filtering possibilities, refer to Microsoft guides at http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/5392.active-directory-ldap-syntax-filters.aspx.

LDAP Attribute (alphabetically)	Description / example
c	Stands for country or region. Most likely to contain a two-letter ISO country code. Example: c=DE
cn	Stands for common name. Composed from the givenName attribute, concatenated to the SN attribute. Example: CN=Guy Thomas.
company	Stands for Company (or organization name).
description	The description seen in LDAP Users and Computers. Not to be confused with displayName.
displayName	If you script this property, be sure you understand which field you are configuring. Often, displayName can be confused with CN or description.
dc	Stands for domain component, which means that this string holds one component, a label of a DNS domain name. Example: DC=cp, DC=com
dn	Stands for distinguished name. Composed from the CN attribute and additional organization information. Example: CN=Guy Thomas, OU= Newport,DC=cp,DC=com
givenName	Refers to the Firstname. Example: givenName=Guy
name	The same as CN.
objectCategory	Defines the Schema category. Example: objectClass=Person
objectClass	Also used for Computer, organizationalUnit, even container. Important top level container. Example: objectClass=User.
ou	Defines the Organizational unit. Example: OU=Newport
physicalDeliveryOfficeName	Defines the Office on the user's General property sheet.
sAMAccountName	Old NT 4.0 logon name, must be unique in the domain. Can be confused with CN. Example: sAMAccountName=guyt
sn	Stands for surname (or last name). Example: SN=Thomas.
st	Contains the State or province. Example: ST=California.
street	Contains the address (first line). Example: street=15 Main St.
telephoneNumber	Contains phone numbers (it is multi-valued). Example: telephoneNumber=+1 234 567 8901
userAccountControl	Used to disable an account. A value of 514 disables the account, while 512 makes the account ready for logon.
userPrincipalName	Often abbreviated to UPN, and looks like an email address. Very useful for logging on especially in a large Forest. Note UPN must be unique in the forest. Example: userPrincipalName=guyt@CP.com

Refer to the table below to view other attributes which are found in Exchange:

Exchange Attribute	Description
homeMDB	Here is where you set the MailStore
legacyExchangeDN	Legacy distinguished name for creating Contacts. In the following example, Guy Thomas is a Contact in the first administrative group of GUYDOMAIN: /o=GUYDOMAIN/ou=first administrative group/cn=Recipients/cn=Guy Thomas
mail	An easy, but important attribute. A simple SMTP address is all that is required billyn@ourdom.com
mailNickname	Normally this is the same value as the sAMAccountName, but could be different if you wished. Needed for mail enabled contacts.
mDBUseDefaults	Another straightforward field, just the value to:True
msExchHomeServerName	Exchange needs to know which server to deliver the mail. Example: /o=YourOrg/ou=First Administrative Group/cn=Configuration/cn=Servers/cn=MailSrv
proxyAddresses	As the name 'proxy' suggests, it is possible for one recipient to have more than one email address. Note the plural spelling of proxyAddresses.
targetAddress	SMTP:@ e-mail address. Note that SMTP is case sensitive. All capitals means the default address.
showInAddressBook	Displays the contact in the Global Address List.
