In this session, you'll learn how to customize SharePoint to automate My Site provisioning for greater consistency and governance, and to leverage the User Profiles service for easy navigation of user properties. The speakers will demonstrate several approaches from real customer engagements, including a SharePoint 2013 app and a full-featured, farm-level solution that can scale for a large enterprise. Come and see how a little custom code can go a long way to organize and manage SharePoint My Sites and consume user properties in different scenarios.

- 11. Presentation Title | (#) Recap • Use AD/ADFS as primary sync connection • Use BCS to import additional profile properties • Use property mapping to aggregate the User Profile • If using SPD, the primary key will be used as the identifier; modify the BDCM file yourself and use a unique logical key • Permissions in BDC
