can be configured to integrate with your existing LDAP Active Directory server to authenticate users. There are two configuration options. Each one uses a different Security Manager.

The first option is to use the  LDAP Security Manager. Here the authentication is handed off to an external LDAP/AD system.

 
 

The second option is to use the  LDAP Container Security Manager. Here the  server is deployed to an existing servlet container that is already handling user authentications through LDAP. Authentication, in this case, is the responsibility of the container.

Retrieving Custom Attributes from the LDAP Server

When a user is successfully authenticated by the LDAP security manager,  retrieves the following basic user information from the LDAP server: 

Last Name
First Name
Email address 

Using a business rule, you can populate controls in your form with this information. 

 

There are many attributes available in Active Directory. View this website for a partial list. Single and multi-value attributes are supported. Active Directory custom attributes can be retrieved for users in a  tenant using the LDAP Security Manager or the LDAP Container Security Manager.  

 

You can retrieve additional custom attribute information from the LDAP server using the configuration parameter "com.frevvo.security.ldap.customAttributes" and business rules.
