...the search scope is used to subset the SGs and DGs. The search scope itself shows expected results. The search scope filter used is: /Group[Type='Security' or Type='MailEnabledSecurity'][(Domain = 'DomainX') or (Domain = 'DomainY')]

Tried the following, with the GUID being the resource ID from the search scope for security groups:

~/identitymanagement/aspx/customized/CustomizedObjects.aspx?type=Group&searchtype=e8ed98b6-e299-4b8d-bfe5-e4b2adf1cd60

~/IdentityManagement/aspx/groups/Groups.aspx?type=Group&searchtype=e8ed98b6-e299-4b8d-bfe5-e4b2adf1cd60

Thanks

are you talking about redirect URL in search scope ? FIM will automatically add the searchtype querystring

for custom groups search scope you can use :

~/IdentityManagement/aspx/groups/AllGroups.aspx

and configure you search scope to use the same UsageKeywords as for the security groups

and restart your IIS server using the command "IISRESET"

in your case if you want to create navigation bar link to your group-type search scope use may use this format:

http://{your fim server}/IdentityManagement/aspx/groups/AllGroups.aspx?searchtype={your searchscope guid}&content=%2a

ex : http://fimserver/IdentityManagement/aspx/groups/AllGroups.aspx?searchtype=47e0a973-0ab4-46f5-815f-f5028c1af58e&content=%2a

Thanks Amer, however the following brings up all groups, and not just the ones shown in the result for the search scope.

http://{your fim server}/IdentityManagement/aspx/groups/AllGroups.aspx?searchtype={your searchscope guid}&content=%2a

ex : http://fimserver/IdentityManagement/aspx/groups/AllGroups.aspx?searchtype=47e0a973-0ab4-46f5-815f-f5028c1af58e&content=%2a

hi bhushan, I test it and it works, I created a search scope "to get a group with some specific display name"

then I created a navigation bar resource and the url is:

~/IdentityManagement/aspx/groups/AllGroups.aspx?searchtype=47e0a973-0ab4-46f5-815f-f5028c1af58e&content=%2a

- you should use "AllGroups.aspx" not "Groups.aspx" since the later will just redirect to "allgroups.aspx" with no querystrings.

- make sure the guid is the "Resource Id" for the custom search scope you created, or you can run search using your search scope, then copy the URL

- maybe your search scope returns all the groups.

- double check your search scope filter (the preview list has

Thanks for the follow up Amer.

Following three search scopes work correctly in the Search Result preview of Search Definition screen but the Navigation Link still returns all values in all cases. The nav url is ~/IdentityManagement/aspx/groups/AllGroups.aspx?searchtype={Search Scope GUID}&content=%2a

/Group[Type='Security' or Type='MailEnabledSecurity'][(Domain = 'DomainX') or (Domain = 'DomainY')]

/Group[((Type='Security') or (Type='MailEnabledSecurity')) and ((Domain = 'DomainX') or (Domain = 'DomainY'))]

/Group[((Type='Security') or (Type='MailEnabledSecurity')) and DisplayName='TestGroup1']

in search scope configuration make sure :

- the result redirect URL is set to

~/IdentityManagement/aspx/groups/AllGroups.aspx

- use the following UsageKeywords on your search scope configuration:

Global
AllSecurityGroups
customized
Group
MailEnabledSecurity
Security

then run IISRESET, also force refresh the page ( CTRL 

Thanks Amer,

Still no joy! It could be something amiss in my env. For Security & Distribution Groups the Nav link returns all. Additionally, clicking on the Advanced Search on an incorrect result from the Nav link does not display the correct syntax. Asymmetrically, all person related navigation links return expected values shown in the Search Scope definition preview.

Nav link that worked:

~/IdentityManagement/aspx/common/GlobalSearchResult.aspx?searchtype=d790b29e-843b-4f78-bff6-bb04a14e3808&content=%2a

Also the keyword GlobalSearchResult needs to be added to both the search scope and the Nav links.

Following did not work for me:

~/IdentityManagement/aspx/groups/AllGroups.aspx?searchtype=47e0a973-0ab4-46f5-815f-f5028c1af58e&content=%2a

I had no issues with the following Navigation URL.  Using Allgroups.aspx also preserved the Security Groups toolbar, e.g. the New, Details, Delete, etc buttons above the group listing returned. The toolbar was not presented when using  CustomizedObjects.aspx however there may be another configuration issue in play.

~/IdentityManagement/aspx/groups/AllGroups.aspx?searchtype=fbccfd61-7522-4739-bb80-407b83e7a369&content=%2a

Hi all,

I meet an error when I specify an url redirection to the CustomizedObjects page.

I have created search scopes with the Global keyword in order to display them in the home page. The first search scope (dedicated to users) redirects to the AllPersons page without problem.

But the second which is dedicated to a custom type of resource does not redirect to the CustomizedObjects page as expected and I don't understand why...

For your information I have checked the url in the browser address bar and it works fine.

Regards,
