Configure Active Directory for Sanctioned IT

NOTE: If you are on version 4.3.2 and above, click Cloud Connector Config Custom Attributes.

Once Skyhigh Cloud Connector has connected to your Directory Server or collected your CSV file, you can configure Custom Attributes for use with Sanctioned IT.

NOTE: There is a limit of 10 Sanctioned Custom Service Attributes that can be mapped.

  1. After connecting to the attribute source, click Sanctioned Settings.
  2. To upload AD attributes for user groups in Sanctioned IT, under Skyhigh CASB Data Upload, select Enabled. This will also send your unique Salt to Skyhigh CASB to tokenize user information received through API and proxy integration feeds.

  1. For all the attributes you want to send for user group configuration, activate the Attribute to Send checkbox. 
  2. For all attributes that are needed to uniquely identify a user, activate the Include as Key checkbox. 
    IMPORTANT: If an Attribute you need it missing, add it to the default Attributes list on the Domain Configuration > Domain Setup page. 
  3. Click Save.

When an event occurs that pertains to a Custom Attribute, the data for that Custom Attribute will be appended to the event.
