Managing Directory Services Attributes

Workflow Manager 2014 / AdminStudio Enterprise Server 2014

When creating a Workflow Manager template, you can assign a Data Element the Data Type of Directory Service. This means that when a directory service-authenticated account completes the workflow step requesting that particular data element, information is pulled from the directory service to automatically populate the field, such as that account’s name, email address, or location.

Each piece of information that can be returned from the directory service is referred to as an attribute. Workflow Manager allows you to select which of the many directory service attributes you want available for use as data elements in workflow templates.

Example of Fields Populated With Directory Services Attributes

Note: If a person is using Workflow Manager through an account not authenticated from a directory service, such fields will be enabled and left blank, ready for manual entry.
