targetAddress attribute is mapped to exch_externalEmailAddress in AD?

[Prashanth1812 (Prashanth Pullammagari)]

Hi All,

Anyone encountered the issue with targetAddress provisiong into AD, as we see in the IQservices logs that it is being mapped to exch_externalEmailAddress attribute automatically even though we did not enable exchange settings in the connector config. Please let me know, Thanks

Hi @Prashanth1812 ,

A question, what do you mean by targetAddress, I do not see any such attribute in the list of schema attributes of AD in the document too. Do you mean externalEmailAddress attribute?

Hi Uday,
Thanks for the response.

No, we have an attribute called targetAddress(think of it as a custom attribute in our ENV) in AD and we want to update the value while creating an account. No we don’t need “externalEmailAddress” to be updated or created.

Hi Prashanth,

Add a schema attribute in Create/Update provisioning policy for targetAddress and it should work. Ensure you have the proper format SMTP: in the value

Hi All,

FYI - looks like exchange settings was enabled on the source and I had to remove exchange settings section completely( not even with null values) from the source through full source update API, and it started working as expected.
