Settings

Label


Required. The name for the Snap. You can modify this to be more specific, especially if you have more than one of the same Snap in your pipeline.

Distinguished name 

Required. 

The LDAP API references an LDAP object by its distinguished name (DN). A DN is a sequence of relative distinguished names (RDN) connected by commas. An RDN is an attribute with an associated value in the form attribute=value, normally expressed in a UTF-8 string format.  The typical RDN attribute types include: 

DC = domainComponent, CN = commonName, OU = organizationalUnitName,O = organizationName, STREET = streetAddress, L = localityName,ST = stateOrProvinceName, C = countryName, UID = userid.

This field is applicable only to existing users. If the user does not exist, create an entry using the Create Entry Snap first.

ExampleA distinguished name for an LDAP entry can be represented as: 

CN=AbcUser,CN=Users,DC=server,DC=company,DC=com. 

In this example, to refer to the entire user list, you can remove the initial attribute, CN=AbcUser.

Default value: [None]

You can also use special characters in the distinguished name. See the section Using Special Characters in Distinguished Name below.


Photo attribute name

Required. The name of the photo attribute in Active Directory to update. This defaults to 'jpegPhoto' but can be customized within Active Directory.
