The following table lists common attributes that can be mapped for user provisioning. The Salesforce Connector dynamically retrieves custom attributes that you configure in the Salesforce console.

For a more complete list of Salesforce attributes, see Users in the Salesforce documentation.

Attribute Description
Username

The user’s username and Salesforce login.

This value must be in the format of an email.
Community Nickname

The user's nickname used in Salesforce Communities.

Must be 40 characters or less.

This must be unique in your Salesforce organization. Consider matching the username attribute.
Alias

The user’s short name used on list pages, reports, and other pages here the entire name does not fit.

Must be eight characters or less.

If the attribute value exceeds eight characters, you can use an OGNL expression to truncate the value. Below is an example where sAMAccountName is truncated to eight characters.

#result=#this.get("sAMAccountName").toString(),
#result.length() > 8 ? #result.substring(0,8):#result
