Create ID Provider Configuration

There is a configuration to configure the ID provider, for example, which facets and objects it affects. A configuration is created under the service. Select the service and click New to create the configuration.

If you select this new configuration, you can define in the detail content how this ID should look like and which facets or objects it impacts.

Format

This item describes how the composite unique ID should look.

In this field you can use various placeholders to create an individual ID. You will find hints and examples in the detailed content below.

To illustrate this, the "Role-ID-" prefix is selected and "{0}" is set after it.

In this example, this prefix is always used with each newly created ID for a role and followed by an ascending number.

Facet and Type

You can also configure under Facet and Type for which facet and underlying object this ID should be generated, such as roles.

Valid for Attribute Type

The Valid for Attribute Type field defines which attribute this ID is entered in a role. In this example, the created ID is to be written to the ID attribute of the object.

It can also be written in the name field or others. Click on the field to display all options.

Allow refresh

Select this option if you want to allow this ID to be updated automatically after changing any connected objects in the ID.

Get ID on Creation

This option should be selected if you want an ID to be assigned automatically when a new object is created.
