In one of our resources, we also use the ID as the unique identifier. Do
the users already exist in midpoint that the CSV accounts belong too? If
so, then you would match based on your extension attribute, what do you
have for icfs:name mapping? like our CSV for example,
<attribute>
<ref>icfs:name</ref>
<displayName>Name</displayName>
<limitations>
<minOccurs>0</minOccurs>
<access>
<read>true</read>
</access>
</limitations>
<inbound>
<target>
<path>
$c:user/c:extension/bshp:uniqueID
</path>
</target>
</inbound>
</attribute>
<correlation>
<q:equal>
<q:path>c:user/c:extension/bshp:unqiueID</q:path>
<expression>
<path>
declare namespace icfs="
http://midpoint.evolveum.com/xml/ns/public/connector/icf-1/resource-schema-3
";
$account/attributes/icfs:name
</path>
</expression>
</q:equal>
</correlation>
This way, if it is an existing user with the same value, it will match and
link accounts, if not, then the object template will generate a new user
based on what we have defined as a 'username'
