Env Source

The Env Organizational Identity Source Plugin is designed to pull attributes from environment variables, generally populated by web server authentication modules.

Modes

Configuration

Each environment variable must be mapped to the appropriate data element to populate using the value made available in that variable.

• An environment variable must be mapped to Identifier (System of Record ID), which will serve as the unique key for the record.
• In order for an identifier to be used for login to Registry, the Login box must be ticked for that identifier in the configuration.
• As a valid Organizational Identity requires a Primary Name, the environment variables should collect a name from the external identity provider in order for an Organizational Identity to be created. If the environment variable mapped to Given Name (Official) is empty the value of the environment variable mapped to Identifier (System of Record ID) will be used. If the environment variable mapped to Family Name (Official) is empty the value from the localization text pl.envsource.name.unknown is used (the localization texts for the plugin are found in the Lib/lang.php file under Plugin/EnvSource).
•  Be sure to click Save when presented the initial configuration page, even if accepting the default environment variable names presented.
