Fetch external data in portal

Hello

I have been searching for some information about how to fetch data direct in the FIM portal. I will give an example.

When i create a new user in the FIM portal, i would like to only enter a social security number and then click a link/button. this click fetches the entered SSN and connects to a db/webservice/something and fetches data and populates fields in FIM user creation dialog.

is this possible?

Hello Tobias,


I'm afraid that is not possible by design.

You need to write your own form, like this: http://fimcreativethoughts.blogspot.fr/2012/05/fim-custom-user-interface-ui-create_14.html

Not possible out of the box, unfortunately.

You need to use external ASP.NET pages (se link provided by Sylvain) or custom Sharepoint components.

Click button, no, but you can write a custom activity that would populate the external feed.
