Available to users with Admin role.

If a directory server is configured for synchronization, groups can be created in the User Manager module by importing users from the directory server. Imported groups can then be synchronized later on. 

Only users imported from your directory server can be synchronized. Users originally created in CAE LearningSpace Experience cannot be synchronized, even if their data matches a user stored on the directory server.

  1. Create or open a group you want to import users into.
  2. Go to the LDAP tab.



  3. Switch no Enable at LDAP sync.
    Further settings will appear in the tab:



  4. Select a directory server from the drop-down if you have more than one directory configured for synchronization.

  5. The query base is automatically passed down from LDAP Synchronization Settings.

    To change the Query base, return to Directory Access Settings in System. The settings can be accessed with the Admin role.

  6. Define a Query filter to identify the users you want to import from the query base.

    Tip

    • Place an asterisk ('*') before, after or inside an attribute's value to apply it as a wildcard operator.
    • Place a question mark ('?') before, after or inside an attribute's value to substitute for any character.



  7. Select a role for the imported users. 

    Upon synchronization, all members will be assigned the selected role.



    'Propagate Membership Removals from Directory Server' Option

    If the option is selected, then users originally imported from the directory server who are no longer members (were removed or deleted) of this specific CAE LearningSpace Experience group will be deleted from the directory server's database upon the next synchronization.

    Only switch on this option if you want to clear user data from your directory server as you remove users from the group in CAE LearningSpace Experience. 

  8. Click Sync Now.
    1. If you are only importing users, the system will show you how many new users are being created:



    2. If there are previously imported users who are being updated, the system will also show you how many updated users you will have in the group:
