Abstract

Disclosed are various examples for enrolling a client device and synchronizing user attributes for the client device across multiple directory services. A search request for user attributes can be sent to a first directory service with an identifier for a user account. The first directory service can query for the identifier and send back user attributes. If a global identifier is included in the attributes, another search request for user attributes can be sent to a second directory service with the global identifier. The second directory service can query for the global identifier and send back user attributes.
