IIdentityProvider Interface
Visual Studio 2013
Namespace: Microsoft.VisualStudio.Services.Identity
Assembly: Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Framework.Server (in Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Framework.Server.dll)
The IIdentityProvider type exposes the following members.
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() | AvailableIdentityAttributes | Provider-specific attributes used by corresponding identity. |
![]() | IsSyncable | This property signifies whether this identity provider supports syncing. |
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() | CreateDescriptor(TeamFoundationRequestContext, IIdentity) | Creates descriptor from IIdentity instance provided by ASP.NET for authenticated user (through web request's HttpContext.User.Identity property). |
![]() | CreateDescriptor(TeamFoundationRequestContext, String) | A provider MAY implement CreateDescriptor if they support resolving an identities generalized display name to a descriptor. This allows TFS to take a display name for an unknown user and resolve it using the provider to a fully qualified identity. NOTE: You should return NULL if you can't resolve the display name to a unqiue user. |
![]() | GetIdentity | Gets the identity from the ASP.NET identity source. |
![]() | GetPossibleIdentityTypes | Indicates if the supplied descriptor could represent a user, group or both. |
![]() | ServiceStart | |
![]() | SupportedIdentityTypes | Get the fully qualified .NET class type for the Identity type(s) that this store supplies. This is the class that implements IIdentity. An example is "System.Security.Principal.WindowsIdentity". |
![]() | SyncMembers | |
![]() | TrySyncIdentity |
