LDAP Integration

LDAP stands for Lightweight Directory Access Protocol. It is a vendor-neutral, industry-


standard application protocol used to access and manage directory information services and
provides a means to manage user and group membership stored in Active Directory.

➢ An LDAP integration allows your instance to use your existing LDAP server as the master
source of user data.

➢ Connect timeout

A LDAP connection timeout happens when the client loses connection to the LDAP server
due to exceeding the time limits of InitRecvTimeout or MaxConnIdleTime parameters.

➢ Read timeout
➢ Read timeouts cover the amount of time it takes to actually receive the response back from
the server

➢ SSL
➢ It is used to secure communication between LDAP clients and LDAP servers

➢ Listener
➢ The "Listen Interval" defines how often to transform.
"So, the Listener interval is actually just the frequency at which the transform takes place.
The updates will still come in real time. They build up an import set, then after the
interval, that import set is transformed. Listener is a push service. We do not pull those
updates, those get pushed to us by your server.
If you want your LDAP changes coming in just once a day, or just once every 6 hours or so,
then you should actually turn off the listener, then let the LDAP Refresh scheduled job run.
The scheduled job runs once a day (by default). If you want it to run more often than that,
then you can change the repeat interval on it.
