You can enable or disable web services for user profile synching for groups of users. You must first create a configuration set for web services. For a description of the web services for user profile synching and how to create a configuration set, see Web Services.
Tip: To learn how to set up and manage groups, see Groups Tab for Managing Groups.
Click the Web Services Rules link under the Rules tab. The Rules | Web Services Rules page appears. Each Group row shows the following in the Profile Pull Web Service and Profile Push Web Service columns:
- Add link indicates there are currently no web services established for the group.
- Edit link in green indicates there are web services established for the group and they are active.
- Edit link in yellow indicates that although there are web services established for the group, they are inactive.
For a description of the profile pull and push web services, see Web Services.
Tip: Groups are prioritized to decide which rule will be applied if a user is a member of more than one group. The Priority column appears to the left of each group. The lower the priority number (located at the top of the list), the higher the rule priority this group will have. The rule with the lowest priority will be applied to members of the group. If a user belongs to more than one group, the group with the lowest priority number (the one appearing closest to the top of the list) is chosen to govern the access and options available. To change the priority of a group, enter a number in the Priority column for the group, and click Save Priority Changes.
