Using the Active Directory Store

As an alternative to using AzMan, you can use Active Directory to store the mapping data in the database. As with AzMan, you must configure the Active Directory providers. The only difference is that the provider uses Active Directory and the database rather than AzMan.

In Active Directory, the attributes shown in the following table should be displayed.

Attribute

Value

type

Microsoft.Ccf.Csr.WebServices.Providers.AdminConsole.SqlWorkflowWSProvider,Microsoft.Ccf.Csr.WebServices.Providers

connectionString

Server=CCFSQL;Integrated Security=true;Database=CcfInfrastructure;Pooling=true;

In Active Directory, the mapping is handled by DBWorkflowMappingWS, which has the attributes shown in the following table:

Attribute

Value

type

Microsoft.Ccf.Csr.WebServices.Providers.AdminConsole.SqlDBWorkflowMappingWSProvider,Microsoft.Ccf.Csr.WebServices.Providers

connectionString

Server=CCFSQL;Integrated Security=true;Database=CcfInfrastructure;Pooling=true;

After you configure the workflows and workflow mappings in Active Directory, reset the IIS server on which you were working to make sure that the new settings are applied

The following figure shows the data flow and operation configured in Active Directory.
