This section demonstrates how to set up mapped security to protect information that was extracted from a SharePoint repository, using the GetSharePoint processor.
Groups in SharePoint or SharePoint Online can originate from multiple sources, for example from SharePoint itself or from an on-premise Active Directory. This means that you must retrieve group information from both sources. The GetSharePointGroups processor retrieves SharePoint groups, and you can retrieve groups from Active Directory using the OmniGroupServer LDAP module. Finally, OmniGroupServer must be configured to combine the groups retrieved from both sources into a single repository.
To configure mapped security you must set up the following components:
IDOL OmniGroupServer.
Only the final repository, that contains the combined information, should be queried by IDOL Community to populate user security info strings. For information about how to configure OmniGroupServer, see Configure OmniGroupServer.
For many security types, you might only need to create an empty repository to be populated with group information by the PutOGS processor that you configure in NiFi.
IDOL NiFi Ingest.
