Create Identity Provider Attribute (Github)

   

POST {{apiPath}}/environments/{{envID}}/identityProviders/{{providerID}}/attributes

The POST {{apiPath}}/environments/{{envID}}/identityProviders/{{providerID}}/attributes operation adds a new identity provider attribute mapping resource for the specified identity provider.

For GITHUB type attribute mappings, supported Github provider attributes can be mapped to any searchable PingOne user attribute.

If the external identity provider is Github, a subset of Github provider attributes can be used as the mapping attribute placeholder value.

The placeholder value must use the following syntax:

${providerAttributes.<Github attribute name>}

When you create a new Github identity provider entity, the POST request automatically maps the PingOne username attribute to the Github id attribute. The username attribute is the core mapping attribute; the default Github attribute value is id. It is also recommended that you map the PingOne email attribute to the Github email attribute.

The request body for the email-to-email mapping looks like this, with the value attribute showing the X email attribute expressed using the placeholder syntax:

{
    "name": "email",
    "update": "EMPTY_ONLY",
    "value": "${providerAttributes.email}"
}

Refer to Identity Provider Attributes for more information. Refer also to Base IdP data model for the properties available to all of the supported identity providers.
