Synchronizing Entra EmployeeID
0

Hi,
I’m synchronizing users from Microsoft Entra ID (AAD) to WEBCON and I’m trying to find out whether the standard Employee ID attribute (employeeId in Entra ID) can be imported/synchronized?
In Entra ID this value is visible in the user profile as "Employee ID", but in the WEBCON synchronization source fields I cannot find any corresponding attribute like this.

Hi,
I'm not using currently AAD nor the Employee ID column, although from a brief research it seems like it should work with just correct setup of synchronization, and mapping of extension attributes, as from what i've found Employee ID is an extension attribute.

Open up this* window in Designer studio, in Columns Mapping add in employeeId** column, run the sync, and check if the data is fetched :)
