Mailbox Type |
Select which button for mailbox type must be selected by default on the New User creation wizard:
The third option for Office 365 or Exchange remote mailbox types depends on whether the Microsoft Exchange extension is enabled or not: if this extension is enabled, Exchange remote button will be displayed. If Microsoft Exchange extension is disabled, you will see Office 365 button. The default value is No mailbox. Note: To create Office 365 or Exchange remote mailbox, you also need to assign the user the Office 365 license plan with Exchange Online option.
In case of Exchange remote mailbox, the exchange-related attributes will be created in your on-premise exchange server. So both the Cloud and on-premises environment will have the knowledge that the user has the exchange online mailbox. In case of Office 365 mailbox, there won't be any flag created in the Active Directory and Exchange On-premises that the user has a mailbox in the Cloud. |
Hybrid License Options |
|

Specify the way how the Office 365 licenses will be assigned to a user if a matching Office 365 account is going to be created:

Other Attributes |
|
Other Attribute 1 - Other Attribute 20 |
If you use Active Directory extension attributes to store additional information for user accounts, you could select these attributes and map them to Other Attributes. To set labels or default values for these attributes, please use Attribute Policies. |
Virtual Attributes |
|
Virtual Attribute 1 - Virtual Attribute 25 |
Virtual Attributes allow extending the attribute list for users in Active Directory without extending the Active Directory schema. Select the virtual attributes from the list and map them to Virtual Attribute 1 - Virtual Attribute 25. For more details, please see Configuring Virtual Attributes article. |
DynamicAttribute Mapping |
|
Data Source Separator used in file Column name > Attribute Mapping (optional) |
If the user's properties depend on its organizational unit, then when creating a new user in Web Interface, it would be convenient to populate the default attribute values such as Department, Office, etc depending on the user's organizational unit. Dynamic Attribute Mapping solves this problem. For configuration, please see Dynamic attribute mapping in Web Interface article. |
Custom Generation Tokens |
|
Custom Generation Tokens |
Custom generation tokens allow using the values of the attributes of the user who is running the action (initiator) in the Attribute Policies that are applied to the creation of Active Directory and Office 365 objects. Custom generation tokens should be set in corresponding Web Action configuration form. Example: {@{'InitiatorDepartment'=GetInitiatorProperty('department')}} After that InitiatorDepartment token can be used in Attribute Policy that is applied to this Web Action. For details see this KB article: https://cayosoft.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360043017952
