Relevant Products: Exclaimer Cloud - Signatures for Office 365
Introduction
To make additional attributes in your local AD available for Exclaimer Cloud to pick up for use in signatures, you must configure them to synchronise to Azure AD, using your Azure AD Connect tool:
Running the AD Connect Tool
1. Load the tool, to display a list of available tasks.
2. Select the Customise Synchronisation Options task:
3. Click Next.
4. When prompted, log in with your Office 365 Global Administrator account.
5. From here, you will see options for choosing the applicable directory - check these are correct and click Next:
6. You will now see Domain and OU filtering options, where you can choose to synchronise only selected domains or OUs, or all AD domains and OUs:
7. Select applicable options and click Next, to display Optional features.
8. Ensure that the Direct Extension Attribute Sync option is selected:
9. Click Next to display Directory extensions:
10. Use the Available Attributes pane to select required attributes and move them over, into the Selected Attributes pane (using arrow buttons between the two panes).
11. Having selected all required attributes, click Next. The Ready to configure page is displayed:
12. Click the Configure button to start the configuration. By default the tick-box to start synchronisation is select, so azure AD should synchronise immediately.
13. Upon completion, data is synchronised to Azure AD, and the Configuration complete page is displayed:
14. Click Exit.
15. Log into Exclaimer Cloud (portal.exclaimer.com) and perform a manual data synchronisation (for instructions, see the solution in this article), to ensure that the data is synchronised with Exclaimer.
If you have already completed Exclaimer's Additional AD Attributes configuration, the attributes should be available as fields in the signature designer.
If you have not yet completed the Additional AD Attributes configuration, you will need to do so.
Notes
- Empty or Null fields are not synchronised
- A maximum of 100 AD fields can be synchronised (this includes ‘default’ fields, such as Display name, first name, surname, etc.)
- Attributes created by PowerShell will not be synchronised
