1 Description of Active Directory - DAM v4.8.0
Upon user login, username and users affiliation is queried against existing AD database.Ā This is done using the specified ACTIVE_DIRECTORY_AUTH_USER (query-user) which serves as a proxy and queries the entered information against the existing database.
If the user exists in the AD, information about user groups and affiliation is transferred to Digizuiteā¢ DAM Center and paired against groups marked as active AD groups, based on "Active Directory Group Name". If a match can be found, user is paired and allocated with groups in the Digizuiteā¢ DAM Center similar to those in the AD-database.
Note: If the user is removed from existing AD groups, this will be reflected inside the Digizuiteā¢ DAM Center.
