Active Directory Fields Supported in Xink

Short answer:
Xink can populate data from all standard Active Directory fields. Default AD fields are mapped automatically, and custom fields can be added using the LDAP name.

All Active Directory (AD) fields on-premises can be used to populate employee data in Xink.

Below is a list of standard fields and AD fields that are mapped by default.

Fields outside the default AD schema require special mapping using the /field switch. See Example #5.

Extension attributes such as extensionAttribute1, extensionAttribute2, and similar fields are also supported.

See the full Microsoft Active Directory field reference.

If you want to add your own custom fields, enter the field’s LDAP name in Xink and the value can then be populated.
