Issue
Special characters other than '_' and '$' are not allowed for variables in the Mapping field.
In the following example, the variable ${User.DKM-User_Email} has a hyphen which causes the error.
Cause
This is a change in product behavior. Starting in 7.1.1 special characters other than '_' and '$' are not allowed in variable names used in AFX connector mapping fields in RSA Identity Governance & Lifecycle.
This issue manifests in the following ways:
- Any existing variables in the system that have special characters are not converted to the required format.
- If you have migrated from an earlier version where the special characters were allowed, your connectors will not deploy, nor can you use any of your existing attributes for further connector definitions.
- You can still create custom attributes (Admin > Attributes) with special characters other than '_' and '$' but when you go to map these attributes in AFX, you will get the error.
Resolution
- RSA Identity Governance & Lifecycle 7.1.1 P07
- RSA Identity Governance & Lifecycle 7.2.0 P02
