Spotfire® Server and Environment - Installation and Administration

Supported attributes for user and group schemas

Spotfire supports all mandatory SCIM attributes, in addition to several optional attributes in the user and group schemas.

For a list of the user and group schemas and protocol supported in Spotfire, see User and group schemas for SCIM.

User schema attributes

AttributeComment
userNameRequired, unique. A service provider's unique identifier for the user, typically used by the user to directly authenticate to the service provider.
externalIDOptional. A string identifier for the resource as defined by the provisioning client.
displayNameRequired. The name of the user, suitable for display to end-users.
nameOptional. The casual way to address the user in real life.
activeOptional. A Boolean value indicating the user's administrative status.
passwordOptional. Intended to be used as a means to set, replace, or compare (filter for equality) a password.
emailsOptional. Email address for the user.
Note: SCIM specifies that the email address of a user is a multi-valued attribute, but Spotfire expects the email address to be a single-valued attribute. When a user is created, Spotfire uses the primary email address (denoted by the SCIM attribute primary:true) from a list of email addresses. For example, when Spotfire returns a user, it returns the email address with primary as true and type as work.
groupsOptional. A list of groups to which the user belongs, either through direct membership, through nested groups, or dynamically calculated.

More detailed information about the supported user attributes is listed in the following sections of the SCIM schema specification.

Group schema attributes

AttributeComment
displayNameRequired, unique. A human-readable name for the group.
externalIDOptional. A string identifier for the resource as defined by the provisioning client.
membersOptional. A list of members of the group.

More detailed information about the group attributes is listed in the SCIM schema specification Section 4.2: "Group" Resource Schema.
