  Type: []

  The EntityType entity types that are returned on the SPProviderHierarchyTree tree.

Remarks

Claims can be displayed in the People Picker control through claims picking. Claims picking allows an application to surface claims in the People Picker control.In claims picking, a claims provider provides listing, resolve, search and friendly display of claims functionality in the People Picker control.

A People Picker with claims picking functionality is sometimes referred to as a claim picker. If you want to be able to resolve claims by using the type-in control of the claims picker, you must implement this method and implement the SupportResolv() property to return true.

For more information about claims picking and resolution, see How to: Create a Claims Provider and Claims Provider.

The following is an example of how to implement name resolution as well as returning the entity to the People Picker window.

Examples

protected override void FillResolve(Uri context, string[] entityTypes, string resolveInput, List<PickerEntity> resolved)
        {
            if (resolveInput.ToUpper() == "SALESMANAGER")
            {
                PickerEntity entity = CreatePickerEntity();
                entity.Claim = CreateClaim(CRMClaimType.Role, CRMRoleValue.SalesManager, Microsoft.IdentityModel.Claims.ClaimValueTypes.String);
                entity.Description = CRMRoleValue.SalesManager;
                entity.DisplayText = CRMRoleValue.SalesManager;
                entity.EntityData[PeopleEditorEntityDataKeys.DisplayName] = CRMRoleValue.SalesManager;
                entity.EntityType = SPClaimEntityTypes.FormsRole;
                entity.IsResolved = true;
                resolved.Add(entity);
            }
            if (resolveInput.ToUpper() == "REGIONMANAGER")
            {
                PickerEntity entity = CreatePickerEntity();
                entity.Claim = CreateClaim(CRMClaimType.Role, CRMRoleValue.RegionManager, Microsoft.IdentityModel.Claims.ClaimValueTypes.String);
