I m trying to map my skills and responsibilities profile sections to one of the custom properties in Active Directory (extensionattribute1 , 2, etc). I m entering comma seperated values in AD and it s importing the values fine but sees the comma seperated values as one value on import. i.e. C#,asp.net,javascript rather than C# , asp.net , Javascript .
Any ideas. I m almost there it s just not spliting the values correctly on import.
thanks in Advance
I don t think you can just put a CSV string into an AD property and have SharePoint treat this as a multi valued property. This is because the AD property is still classified as a single valued property. Some AD properties are actually/inherently multi-valued, which wouldn t require the use of any CSV construct to input the multiple values into AD. I believe if the AD property is multi-valued, then SharePoint can import this into a SharePoint multi-valued property. Otherwise you ll have to run some custom code in a timer job or something that would parse out the CSV components of the AD property and update the user s profile directly via the SharePoint object model.
This page explains the difference between single and multi valued AD properties:
If you have these values in an external database, you can use those as a secondary data source using Business Data Catalog (BDC).
You could map your data as either 1:1 mapping or 1:many
