How to Delete User Mappings

  • Article

Use these commands to delete one or more user mappings, as specified in the XML file. The following is an example XML file.

<sso>  
<mapping>  
<windowsDomain>domain</windowsDomain>   
<windowsUserId>WindowsUserName</windowsUserId>   
<externalApplication>Application name1</externalApplication>   
<externalUserId>App1UserName</externalUserId>   
</mapping>  
<mapping>  
<windowsDomain>domain</windowsDomain>   
<windowsUserId>WindowsUserName</windowsUserId>   
<externalApplication>Application name2</externalApplication>   
<externalUserId>App2UserName</externalUserId>   
</mapping>  
</sso>

If a user is not a member of the Application Users account, or does not exist in Active Directory, you should use this command to remove the user mapping from the Credential database.

If a user account is changed, you must use this command to remove the old user mapping, and then create a new user mapping for the new user account. For more information about creating a mapping, see How to Create User Mappings.
