IMASynchronization.MapAttributesForExport

The MapAttributesForExport method is called to map attributes from a metaverse entry to a connector space entry.

[C#]
public void MapAttributesForExport(
  String FlowRuleName,
  MVEntry mventry,
  CSEntry csentry
);

[Visual Basic .NET]
Public Sub MapAttributesForExport( _
  ByVal FlowRuleName As String, _
  ByVal mventry As MVEntry, _
  ByVal csentry As CSEntry _
)
Implements IMASynchronization.MapAttributesForExport

Parameters

FlowRuleName: Contains the name of the flow rule. You must use only alphanumeric characters for the FlowRuleName parameter, otherwise you can encounter problems in a rules extension.
Note Flow rules are not executed in the order shown in Identity Manager. Identity Integration Server uses these rules according to the state of the metaverse object. Configure your rules based on the state of the object rather than the rules being called in a predetermined order.
mventry: Contains an MVEntry object that represents the source metaverse entry.
csentry: Contains a CSEntry object that represents the destination connector space entry.

Return Values

This method has no return values.

Exceptions

Exception type	Condition
DeclineMappingException	The method cannot produce a mapping for an attribute
EntryPointNotImplementedException	The rules extension does not implement this method.
UnexpectedDataException	The method received unexpected data.

Remarks

This method is called when:

the export flow rules do not overlap with the import flow rules or
if the source attribute has a precedence greater than or equal to the precedence of the overlapping import flow rule. Management agent precedence is set in Metaverse Designer.

For more information about setting management agent precedence, see the Microsoft Identity Integration Server 2003 Help.
