How to Re-Export a User Attribute to a Target System

This guide explains how to manually re-export or update a user attribute from eADM to a target system, such as Active Directory (AD).

Normally, eADM only exports values that have changed since the last synchronization. However, you may need to perform a manual, full re-export of an attribute in certain situations.

This procedure is useful when:

• Manual changes have been made directly in the target system (e.g., AD) that you need to overwrite with data from eADM.

• You have updated an expression in the Source column in an eADM export mapping and want to apply this change retroactively to all users.

• A static value needs to be re-exported for all users to ensure the target system is correctly updated.

Procedure

Follow these steps to manually trigger a re-export for one or more attribute mappings.

1. Navigate to Synchronization > Synchronization Templates.

2. Select the relevant synchronization template for the target system you wish to update.

3. In the Export tab, locate the attribute mapping you want to re-export.

4. To re-export a single attribute, click the Export mapping (play icon) button on the far right of that attribute's row.

5. A new dialog will open. Here, you can define the scope of the export. Choose whether the export should apply to All users or a specific selection (Velg).

6. You have two options:

   • Preview: Click this to review the data that will be exported before executing the task.

   • Execute: Click this to add the re-export task to the eADM export queue immediately.

7. If you choose to preview the data, you can filter the results for easier review.

8. Once you have confirmed the data is correct, click Execute to finalize the re-export to the target system.
