[midPoint] Populating outbound attribute mapping from other resources?

[Pavol Mederly]

Hello Stacy,

the midPoint architecture is quite strict in this respect: you have to 
do the data transfer via the user object. (This quite old article 
<https://wiki.evolveum.com/display/midPoint/Common+Data+Model> contains 
a few words of explanation.)

We routinely use extension items 
<https://wiki.evolveum.com/display/midPoint/Custom+Schema+Extension> to 
do such transfers. If you do not need to search on the items' values, 
make then unindexed (set indexed = false) and the performance and 
storage overhead will be negligible.

Best regards,

Pavol Mederly
