    See Creating Enforcement Sets to learn more about adding Enforcement Actions to Enforcement Sets.

    Note:

    General Settings

    • Action name - The name of this Enforcement Action. The system sets a default name. You can change the name.

    • Use stored credentials from Microsoft Entra ID adapter - Select this option to use Microsoft Entra ID adapter credentials. When you select this option, the Select Adapter Connection dropdown is available, and you can choose which adapter connection to use for this Enforcement Action.
    Note:

    To use this option, you must successfully configure a Microsoft Entra ID adapter connection.

    Required Fields

    These fields must be configured to run the Enforcement Set.

      • If you want to update the User's profile image, configure a Dynamic Value statement, as follows:
        1. Under Required Fields, enable the Configure Dynamic Values toggle.
        2. Using the Wizard, configure the Dynamic Value All statement as follows (see the screen below): Set the image in the action configuration (Image (use "Configure Dynamic Values" to select an image)) to be the first non-empty valid image from the selected adapters’ Image field. You can click Syntax to see the statement syntax.
      • If you do not configure a Dynamic Values statement to set the image or none of the selected adapters in the statement has an image, then no image is uploaded, unless an image is uploaded manually via the File-Upload button.
    Note

    When you manually upload an image, the uploaded image will be used for all users affected by the enforcement action, unless Dynamic Values are configured.
