Managing Directory Services Configuration

AdminStudio 2024 R2 SP1 | 28.01 / AdminStudio Enterprise Server 2024 R2 SP1

Workflow Manager / AdminStudio Enterprise Server can be integrated with Windows Active Directory and Novell eDirectory. This enables you to set up automatic login with the product based upon directory service authentication.

All directory service-related tasks can be managed starting from the Directory Services page, which you can access clicking Directory Services on the Settings menu.

Information about managing directory services is presented in the following sections:

•

Directory service connections—If you import a directory services group, all members of that group can login to Workflow Manager / AdminStudio Enterprise Server without requiring you to import them individually. Workflow Manager / AdminStudio Enterprise Server can then retrieve attributes, such as email address or telephone number, from the directory service dynamically. For information on integrating with directory service users and groups, see Managing Directory Services Connections.

•

Directory service attributes—[Workflow Manager only] You may add data elements to your workflow templates which, for accounts imported from directory services, will be directly populated from directory service attributes (such as account name, email address or location). For information on enabling the use of Directory Service Attributes, see Managing Directory Services Attributes.
