Description

Some serviceproviders are picky on where the value for the email address is send. e.g. AWS requires the type to be other, while GCP requires it to be work

  • Add a selector to openconext-Manage provisionings, home, work and other
  • Use other if not configured (default)
  • Change the SCIM messages to send the email address as the configured type
  • If multiple types are configured, send the email multiple times

examples:

{
  "emails": [
    {
      "value": "alice@example.com",
      "type": "work",
    }
  ]
}
{
  "emails": [
    {
      "value": "alice@example.com",
      "type": "other",
    }
  ]
}
{
  "emails": [
    {
      "value": "alice@example.com",
      "type": "other",
    },
    {
      "value": "alice@example.com",
      "type": "work",
    }
  ]
}
