Hi experts,

Is it possible to automatically use guest operators email as sponsor email in create_user form? I have a request from customer to automatically send receipts of all created guest accounts to guest operators email. Guest operator using his AD credentials to logging to CPPM Guest.

I now I can do the sponsor lookup for fetching an email, but can I do that lookup automatically by using operators login credentials?

Thanks

Vaclav

I think this will be possible but it's a little bit complicated.

If I understand correctly an user logs in at ClearPass Guest and create a Guest Account. 

By default test Guest Operator username will be save in the created guest account as sponsor_name.

There is a way to add the sponsor email to the created account. 

See below a screenshot of my test environment

To achieve this there are multiple steps.

1. Return the Guest Operator email to Guest during login. This is done by updating the enforcement profile for the Guest Operator login.

• First in CPPM. Go to Administration > Dictionaries > Applications. Export the SSO Application as XML, at a new line to the XML (for example 
  <ApplDictionaryAttributes attrType="String" attrName="E-mail"/>) and upload the file. The result looks as follows:

  

• Now update the enforcement profile. I am using AzureAD for authentication but off course you can also fetch the email address from an AD. The email address is returned as SSO:E-mail to guest.
  
  
  
  Result during authentication:
  
  

This is the first step. Now the guest module knows the operator email address.

2: Use the email address in the create_user form.

• In ClearPass Guest. Go to Configuration > Pages > Forms. Select create_user and click "Edit Fields"
• Enable the sponsor_email field
• Edit the sponsor_email field
• In the edit page of the sponsor_email field go to the field Initial Value
• In the Initial Value field enter the following data
  
  array (  'generator' => 'GeneratorFromSession',  'generator_args' =>   array (    0 => 'userauth_user',    1 => 'SSO:E-mail',  ),)
  
  Make sure that SSO:E-mail match the attribute added in step 1
• By default this field is editable by the user. If you want to disable this change the User Interface to Static Text

Great, thank you very much. And after that I can use the auto_send_smtp  field to send a message to sponsors email, right?

Hi, I was successful to fetch email from AD, thank you very much for your help. But I can't use this email address with auto_send_smtp field. I don't know how to force this auto_send_smtp field to use sponsor_email field as email address.

Can you help me please with this last thing?

Thanks

I was able to get this working.

First, the I had set the sponsor email field as static text. For some reason this result in issues. When the type is set static text the sponsor email is saved as sponsor_name instead of sponsor_email. I changed the field type to hidden (text does also work) and now the email is saved in the right field.

To send the email. 

• Go to Configuration > Receipts > Email Receipt
• In the field Copies To enter the text _admin
• Make sure the send copies field is set correctly based on your preferences.
