Hi,
For the scenario that I described (I have a pull task that is pulling an
attribute from an LDAP user into the realm, and I want to process the value of
that attribute and populate 2 other attributes
that are the results of the processing), how does my code in the pull action
class access the attribute that was pulled and how does it store the resulting
2 attribute values into the realm?
Thanks,
Jim

Hi,
I can accept that and move on :)...
FYI, the reason that I was aware of, and was able to find the Javadocs is that,
as you probably know, we have already worked with, and have several,
ItemTransformers. And that was also the reason that led me to that dead end
(because they only return the transformed attribute).
I have taken a closer look again at your documentation on the pull actions and
will see if we can leverage that.
Thanks, and again (truly), my apologies.

Hi,
Thanks. I did read that information and also some information that we had
gathered by another person, but you know, it is not easy to comprehend some of
the Syncope functionality/concepts via just the documentation, and mind you, I
have been doing this kind of work for a long time with other similar products.
And, I want to say that I/we are really trying, as you know via other
channels, so "there is really no reason to be nasty" :(!
Sorry, my intention was absolutely not to be nasty; I was honestly surprised
that you were able the Javadocs about ItemTransformer ...
Regards.
My apologies for having to say that...

Hi, for some reason it seems that it's easier for you to find Javadocs
than documentation :-O
Anyway, take a look at:
PullActions (to inject Java or Groovy logic during Pull)
http://syncope.apache.org/docs/2.1/reference-guide.html#pullactions
PropagationActions (to inject Java or Groovy logic during Propagation)
http://syncope.apache.org/docs/2.1/reference-guide.html#propagationactions
Regards.

Hi,
I was looking at the
ItemTransformer(https://syncope.apache.org/apidocs/2.0/org/apache/syncope/core/provisioning/api/data/ItemTransformer.html)
but it looks that is applied to/bound to an individual attribute, and returns
the transformed attribute value, but in my use case, I want to receive an
attribute value and I want to output to two different attributes (that are not
the incoming attribute).
How can THAT be done?
Thanks,
Jim

Hi,
I have now got Syncope connectors, etc. so that I can cause a change in a
user that came in via the CSV in the realm when I do a pull on my LDAP2 pull
task. Now I need find out how I can some how inject a Java class to (a)
process the incoming attribute, and to (b) output the two constructed attribute
values into two attributes (presumably in the realm).
How do I do that? What mechanism/approach in Syncope can I use?
Thanks, Jim

Hi,
I am trying to accomplish the following with Syncope:
- We currently have been trying to use Syncope to take user information from
a flat file (CSV) and then push information from the flat file to an LDAP
server (call this LDAP1). We have this part working already.
- There is a separate LDAP server (call this LDAP2) that has the same set of
users as in LDAP1, but in LDAP2, each user has an attribute that is not put
into the users in LDAP1 from the first flow above.
So what I am now trying to do is (a) pull that attribute from LDAP2, and (b)
do some processing (Java) on that attribute, and then (c) get the results of
that processing, which is 2 attributes in LDAP2, to the user profile in LDAP2.
So I wondering what is the best way to accomplish the above with Syncope?
I think that would involve something like:
- Have a connection to LDAP2 and a pull task that pulls the attribute from
LDAP2, and then - "Something" (Java?) that take the attribute value and
calculates the 2 new attribute values and pushes those values into the realm
But I am not sure what that "Something" is in Syncope?
Thanks, Jim
