Global Search Configuration Requirements

The attributes used for Global Search must fulfill both of the following criteria:

  • The attribute must be in the set of GAL items configured for the following properties in the LDAP Users configuration: username, firstName, lastName, email, distinguisher, image, or mobilenumber.

    • For RapidIdentity configured against Active Directory, the following values constitute a valid example configuration:

      • username: sAMAccountName

      • firstName: givenName

      • lastName: sn

      • email: mail

      • distinguisher: mail

      • image: idautoPersonPhotoURL

      • mobileNumberAttribute: null

  • The GAL item must be searchable.

    • For RapidIdentity configured against Active Directory, the following constitutes a valid example set of GAL configuration for the above attributes:

      • username: searchable

      • firstName: searchable

      • lastName: searchable

      • email: searchable

      • With the remaining attributes either not configured or not searchable

    • In this example, the users portion of the global search will only be able to search using this set of attributes: username, firstName, lastName, email.
