Attribute Mapping in Laserfiche Cloud
Use the Attribute Mapping page to direct how Laserfiche locates additional user claims in a SAML token.
Configuring attribute mappings is optional for the default use case, but it is required to for Just-in-time provisioning.
Use Case | Is Required | Notes |
Signing in through single sign-on (SSO) | No | Administrators can choose to optionally map attributes like display name for cosmetic display, but no mapping is required for users to sign in through SSO. |
SCIM Provisioning | No | SCIM synchronizes data using an API and does not need to map SAML token claims. |
Just-in-time Provisioning | Yes | Laserfiche Cloud needs mapped attributes in order to create and update user account information during sign-in. |
