Microsoft Identity Manager 2016 SP1 Portal (4.4.1459.0 or Later) – Support for CustomObject (ExplicitMember) Membership Management

 

Hello folks, David Steadman Here!!

Today with the release of the Microsoft Identity Manager 2016 SP1 March 2017 Hotfix (4.4.1459.0), We released a enhancement that allow you to extend the functionality that was originally hardcoded to the group object. Yes I am talking about the Join, Leave,Add Member,Remove Member controls

To use this control in your custom object simply add the attribute ‘ExplicitMember, ComputedMember and Membership Locked)’ to the custom object binding. More information on custom object management can be found here: https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff608270(v=ws.10).aspx

Repeat this binding and you should have the 3 required bindings

Make sure you configured all required MPR / Sets / Search Scopes based on the article mention above

We now go to custom group object and see the navigation bar like a OOB Group management

Custom Group created now you can join

enjoy…..

Note:
For the FIM MA:  "Member" attribute require from resource type to have all three bound properties: "ExplicitMember", "ComputedMember" and "Filter"
