Add a Binary Attribute or Picture to a Profile Screen

You can configure CA Identity Manager to include a binary file or display a picture on a user profile screen. For example, you can configure a user profile screen to allow users to attach a document, such as a certificate, to the profile screen or display a digital photograph of the user being managed.

Note: This functionality is available only for user profile screens. The user store must be an LDAP directory and the binary attribute or picture must be stored in attribute that is defined in the directory configuration file (directory.xml).
