LDAP Attribute Missing when Adding Additional Attributes
Okta Classic Engine
Directories
Okta Identity Engine
Overview

After navigating the Okta Admin dashboard to Directory > Profile Editor > Directories, selecting an LDAP integration, and selecting Add Attribute, the expected LDAP attribute is unavailable, even after selecting Refresh Attribute List.

Applies To
  • Directories
  • LDAP
  • Additional Attribute
Cause
The attribute is not part of the LDAP schema or part of a defined Object Class.
Solution

Ensure the attribute is a part of one of the defined Object Classes in Okta. To find the defined Object Classes in Okta, follow these steps.

  1. Navigate to Directory > Directory Integrations and select the appropriate LDAP integration.
  2. Select Provisioning > Integration and find the Configuration header.
  3. Find the option configured for User Object Class, Group Object Class, or Role Object Class and ensure the desired attribute is part of one of these classes in the LDAP schema.
