Map a Group Membership to a Set
Is it possible to map a group membership to a set? I have a case in which I would like to use the portal and the group membership approval workflow to control a group membersihp, and then use that group membership as a set, from which I can take any number of actions (flow attributes, provision to other systems, etc.). I have tried to manually edit the Filter on a set to be the following:/Group[AccountName='SalesAppUsers']/ComputedMemberor, more completely:<Filter xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" Dialect="http://schemas.microsoft.com/2006/11/XPathFilterDialect" xmlns="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2004/09/enumeration">/Group[AccountName='SalesAppUsers']/ComputedMember</Filter>If I take ComputedMember out, it works fine. I have validated the filter using a search scope, and it properly returns the members of that group.So, really I have two questions...1. Is there an issue using ComputedMember in the filter definition of a set?2. Is there a better to accomplish my goal?Thanks,Keith

Hi Keith,Referring to the group membership in the set is not supported form of filter on Set. Set's filter can refer to the membership of only another set.Thanks,Sri

Is there any other way to accomplish this though? How can I map the membership of a group to a set? What is the recommended process for setting an attribute on a user if they belong a certain group? If I can do that, then I can use the attribute to build the set...Thanks,Keith

Hi Keith! There's no recommended process for this since it's not a standard case. You probably have to use a custom workflow that is triggered when a group member is added or deleted but maybe there are other possible solutions. //HenrikHenrik Nilsson
