LDAP authentication must be switched on for users in the Users module to allow them to log in with their directory server credentials to CAE LearningSpace Enterprise. |
LDAP authentication can be switched on for one user at a time or for a group of selected users:

- Open a user for editing.
- Check Authenticate by LDAP server in the Account tab.

- Once LDAP Authentication is switched on for users, fill in the Authentication ID inside their profiles. LDAP Login Settings in the Directory Access Settings tab determine the required Authentication ID for users.
| Info |
|---|
If the Authentication ID has been set to Email in the Directory Access Settings, you do not have to add anything to the user's profile. |
| Warning | ||
|---|---|---|
| ||
When LDAP Authentication is switched on, users cannot log in with their CAE LearningSpace email and password or modify their credentials even if their credentials are added to their profiles. For the same reason, the email address is not needed in a user's CAELearningSpace LearningSpace Enterprise account in case LDAP Authentication is utilized. |
6. Open each user for editing.
- If you set up a full DN sequence for authentication:
- Provide the user's LDAP ID stored on your directory server in the corresponding field if the Authentication ID has been set to 'LDAP ID' in the Directory Access Settings tab.
Provide the user's UCID (Unique Custom ID) stored on your directory server in the corresponding field if the Authentication ID has been set to 'UCID' in the Directory Access Settings tab.
- Provide the user's LDAP ID stored on your directory server in the corresponding field if the Authentication ID has been set to 'LDAP ID' in the Directory Access Settings tab.
- If you set up the Resolve samAccountName method for authentication, provide the user's samAccountName:

If your directory server is down for some reason, withdraw LDAP authentication from users and allow them to log in with their CAE LearningSpace Enterprise credentials as a temporary solution. |
