Multiplicity

single-value valued

Description

The unique code for a person that is used as the login name within the institution.

Notes

  • Ideally the uid is not only a login name/code but also an identifier that is guaranteed as being unique within the institution over the course of time. At the moment, there is no such guarantee.
  • Use the NameId for unique identifiers in SURFconext rather than uid.
  • Use the eduPersonPrincipalName attribute if a human-readable unique identifier is required
  • A uid may contain any unicode character. E.g., "org:surfnet.nl:joe von stühl" is a valid uid.
  • SURFconext translates @-characters in the uid to underscores.  Yes, this means that uids are not guaranteed to be unique.

Description

e-mail address; syntax in accordance with RFC 5322

Notes

  • This is a multi-value attribute.Multiple email addresses are allowed
  • An email address is not necessarily the email address of this person at the institution, it can also be a @google.com, @hotmail.com or @vanitydomain.org address..
  • Do not use this attribute to uniquely identify a user.  Use the NameId or eduPersonPrincipleName instead.
  • A user's email address The mail may change over time for a user, also or an IdP may allow a user to set change this value themselves. This makes that attribute unsuitable for authentication and authorization purposes.
