:alt: User Profile Attributes.
|
||||
|
||||
After configuring those attributes, the User Profile data will be overwritten with the according data from LDAP. The checksum of data from LDAP will be stored in user settings ``user_ldap``, ``lastProfileChecksum`` and profile update is skipped as long as data from LDAP doesn't change. If ``memcache.distributed`` is enabled in ``config.php`` the checksum will be cached and the checking will be skipped, as long as the cached value exists (expires after ``ldapCacheTTL`` seconds).
|
||||
|
||||
Please be aware:
|
||||
- The user can change the data in profile, but it will get overwritten if changed in LDAP
|
||||
- The user can change the visibility scope in profile
|
||||
- The default visibility can be adjusted with setting the ``account_manager.default_property_scope`` array in ``config.php``
|
||||
- If multiple attribute values are present, only the first distributed value is used
|
||||
- All user profile properties are limited to 2048 character
|
||||
- Having misformatted data in LDAP will most probably leave you with empty user profile fields
|
||||
- Setting the global ``profile.enabled => false`` on ``config.php`` skips the code
|
||||
|
||||
By calling ``php occ ldap:check-user --update <uid>`` the users data from LDAP will be displayed and the profile gets updated. To get the correct ``<uid>`` value for any user you can use ``php occ user:list``.
|
||||
|
||||
.. note:: After unsetting an attribute name here, the data won't be deleted from user profile. Setting an nonexisting attribute will empty the corresponding profile field.
|
||||
|
||||
Phone Field:
|
||||
The LDAP Attribute holding the phone number, to copy to the Profile Phone field.
|
||||
The phone number has to be formatted in international syntax without delimiters (E.164).
|
||||
Be sure to format phone numbers like ``+4966612345678``.
|
||||
|
||||
* Example: *telephoneNumber*
|
||||
* Example: *mobile*
|
||||
|
||||
.. note:: You should set your ``default_phone_region`` in ``config.php``.
|
||||
|
||||
Website Field:
|
||||
The LDAP attribute holding the website URI.
|
||||
The URI must start with ``https://`` or ``http://`` others are currently not allowed in Nextcloud user profile.
|
||||
If using ``labeledURI`` attributes the label (everything after first SPACE) gets removed.
|
||||
|
||||
* Example: *wWWHomePage*
|
||||
* Example: *labeledURI*
|
||||
|
||||
Address Field:
|
||||
The LDAP attribute holding the users address. Named Location on user profile page.
|
||||
Nextcloud wants a single line value like ``city, country`` or ``somewhere under the loving sun``.
|
||||
Multi line postalAddress format will get reformatted, DOLLAR sign delimiter gets replaced with COMMA+SPACE.
|
||||
|
||||
* Example: *postalAddress*
|
||||
* Example: *localityName*
|
||||
|
||||
Twitter Field:
|
||||
The LDAP attribute holding the Twitter account name.
|
||||
|
||||
Fediverse Field:
|
||||
The LDAP attribute holding the users Fediverse address.
|
||||
|
||||
Organisation Field:
|
||||
The LDAP attribute holding the Organisation name.
|
||||
|
||||
* Example: *company*
|
||||

||||
|
||||
