<p>Technology is disclosed for automatically configuring attribute sets, such as object classes and classes of database tables. A system employing an object class, such as an Identity or Access System, configures the object class for use by the system. One version of the system employs a template that includes entries for attributes in the object class. An example entry identifies an attribute and a corresponding meta-attribute. Alternatively, the template may support multiple object classes and include entries with different types of information. During configuration, the system selects an attribute in the object class and identifies a corresponding template entry. The system configures the attribute, based on the information in the template entry. One type of configuration includes the system assigning a meta-attribute from the template entry to the attribute. The system repeats this procedure for each attribute in the object class or at least a subset of the attributes that need configuration.</p> |
