Mapping a Property to a Data Member

  • Article

If you do not map the property to a data member, the property will not be stored in a database, but will be available in memory, for example to store state information while a user is visiting your Web site.

The data members available for the property are the data members that are not already used in the profile definition you are editing. Properties that are being used by the profile definition are unavailable. See Adding a New Property to a Profile definition for more information.

To map to data

  1. In Profiles, click Profile Definition Designer.
  2. In the Profiles screen, select the profile definition that contains the property to which you want to add the custom attribute,
  3. Click the ellipsis […] button to open the Data Source Picker dialog box.
  4. In the Data Source Picker dialog box, select the data member for the property.
