Populations

Note:

All PingOne user resources must exist within a population.

The PingOne synchronization destination provides the following methods for managing a user's population:

  • If a single population is in use, set the configuration attribute default-population-id on the sync destination.
  • If multiple populations are in use, use a constructed attribute mapping.

The following syntax provides an example with a constructed attribute mapping:

dsconfig create-attribute-mapping \
   --map-name PingDirectory_to_PingOne_User_Map  \
   --mapping-name population  \
   --type constructed  \
   --set 'value-pattern:{{"id":"[DEFAULT_POPULATION_ID]"}}'

To set the population, construct a valid JSON object.

Multivalued attributes

If your incoming data is in JSON format, configure your PingOne multivalued attribute as JSON and use a JSON attribute mapping.

If your incoming data is not in JSON format, you can configure your PingOne multivalued attribute as JSON and use a constructed attribute mapping. Otherwise, you must configure your PingOne multivalued attribute as DECLARED and use a direct attribute mapping.

Important:

Direct attribute mapping does not work with JSON multivalued PingOne attributes even with an attribute with the same name and value in PingDirectory.
