Use default LDAP synchronization

There is a preconfigured LDAP synchronization in the interfaces area of the SystemAdministration, which is deactivated by default. If you want to use LDAP synchronization, configure it to suit your use case. Once you have completed the configuration, activate LDAP synchronization and the relevant LDAP classes and LDAP attributes.

Procedure:

1. Customize the default configuration of LDAP synchronization

2. Configure the LDAP classes

3. Configure the relevant LDAP attributes

4. Activate LDAP synchronization, the relevant LDAP classes and relevant LDAP attributes

   Note: Only activate LDAP synchronization, LDAP classes and LDAP attributes once you have completed the configuration to prevent jobs from being executed prematurely.

Customize configuration of the default LDAP synchronization

If you want to use LDAP synchronization, customize the LDAP synchronization, which is already included in the delivery state, to suit your use case.

Instructions:

1. Open the SystemAdministration

2. Open the Interfaces area

3. Configure the default LDAP synchronization in the properties:

   Property	Description
   Trigger	Make sure that a trigger is stored here that triggers the synchronization of the data at the desired intervals.
   Group	This property is for internal use to bundle triggers and jobs and should not be changed!
   Time pattern (Cron)	Here you can enter a time pattern that controls when synchronization is performed automatically. See also: Time pattern (Cron)
   Successor Job	A job can be defined here that is executed after synchronization has been triggered via the trigger.
   LDAP server	LDAP server with which the data should be synchronized.
   Language	Language in which the data should be synchronized.

Result:

The default LDAP synchronization is configured for your use case. You can now configure the relevant LDAP classes.

Create LDAP synchronization

New LDAP synchronizations can be created in the SystemAdministration.

Instructions:

1. Create an LDAP synchronization in the Interfaces area or under Services | Jobs & e-mail services via the context menu:

   

2. Enter a name and confirm with Enter
