The TeamFoundationIdentity type exposes the following members.

	Name	Description
	Descriptor	The identity descriptor for this identity. The unique identifier for the identity's provider. Clients send identification to the server when they authenticate with TFS. Used for many identity management tasks such as AddMemberToApplicationGroup and ReadIdentity. TFS artifacts are either associated with this identifier or the identity's TeamFoundationId.
	DisplayName	Full name of the identity for display purposes. The display name can come from the identity provider (Active Directory, ACS) or may have been set as a custom display name within TFS.
	IsActive	Indicates that the identity is "current" with the provider (that is either read from source or being synced). It does not mean that it is a member of TFS Valid Users group (the "IsMember" query should be used to answer that).
	IsContainer	Indicates that the identity is a group, possibly containing other identities as members.
	MemberOf	IdentityDescriptors for groups containing this identity.
	Members	IdentityDescriptors for members of this identity.
	TeamFoundationId	Identifier assigned within TFS - unique throughout a host. TFS artifacts are either associated with this identifier or the identity's Descriptor.
	UniqueName
	UniqueUserId	This represents the ID to distinguish deleted accounts from each other (for example: joe:1 vs. joe:3).

	Name	Description
	Equals	Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object. (Inherited from Object.)
	GetAttribute	Attribute accessor. Will return the caller supplied default value if attribute is not present (will not throw).
	GetHashCode	Serves as a hash function for a particular type. (Inherited from Object.)
	GetProperties()	Property bag. This could be useful, for example if consumer has to iterate through current properties and modify / remove some based on pattern matching property names.
	GetProperties(IdentityPropertyScope)	Property bag. This could be useful, for example if consumer has to iterate through current properties and modify / remove some based on pattern matching property names.
	GetProperty(String)	Property accessor. Will throw if not found.
	GetProperty(IdentityPropertyScope, String)	Property accessor. Will throw if not found.
	GetType	Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.)
	RemoveProperty(String)	Remove property, if it exists.
	RemoveProperty(IdentityPropertyScope, String)	Remove property, if it exists.
	SetProperty(String, Object)	Sets a property, will overwrite if already set.
	SetProperty(IdentityPropertyScope, String, Object)	Sets a property, will overwrite if already set.
	ToString	(Overrides Object.ToString().)
	TryGetProperty(String, Object%)	Property accessor. Will return null if not found.
	TryGetProperty(IdentityPropertyScope, String, Object%)	Property accessor. Will return null if not found.
