Multiplicity

multi-valued

Description

e-mail address; syntax in accordance with RFC 5322

Notes

  • Multiple email addresses are allowed
  • An email address is not necessarily the email address of this person at the institution.
  • Do not use this attribute to uniquely identify a user.  Use the NameId or eduPersonPrincipleName NameId  instead.
  • A user's email address may change over time, or an IdP may allow a user to change this value themselves. This makes that attribute unsuitable for authentication and authorization purposes.

Notes

  • This attribute can be used to communicate entitlements, roles, etc, from identity providers to services, which can be used, for example, for authorization.

Description

Unique "net ID" beyond the scope of the particular institution, in the form "<user>@<scope>".E.g. "s012001234@student.example.com". identifier for a user.  

Notes

  • Although this value resembles an email address, it should not MUST NOT be used as suchan email address. In many cases mail cannot be delivered to this "address".
  • This value should never be reassigned to another user. I.e. after a user leaves an institution, it should not be assigned to another (future) user.

...

  • Even though this value uniquely identifies a user, it is not guaranteed that it is persistent over sessions (even though it usually is).
  • Do not use this to uniquely identify users.  Use the NameId instead.
