Active Directory Snap Pack

In this article:

Overview

Active Directory is Microsoft's directory service included in most Windows Server operating systems.

Use Snaps in this Snap Pack to:

  • Add members.
  • Create, update, rename, and disable entries.
  • List users and search entries.
  • Update user photos.

Supported Version

This Snap Pack is tested against Active Directory version 56 (Windows Server 2012).

Breaking change for Pipelines containing Snaps that use Error as a key in the Attribute Keys field

In the
main21015 release and later, any Attribute Keys in the Active Directory Create Entry Snap that reference Error should be remapped to reason because the Error key was removed from the structure of the error view document. To avoid breaking your existing pipelines that use Error as a key in the Attribute Keys field, update the Snap settings to use reason as the key instead.

4.23 Patch423patches8210 Latest

Fixes an issue of fetching search records in the Active Directory Search Snap by adding a new field, Limit, to specify the number of search records to be fetched from the Active Directory.

  • Previously the Page Size field worked similar to the Limit field, that is, it sets the limit on fetching records instead of fetching all the records. 
  • The Active Directory Search Snap output now displays the number of records that you specify in the Limit field under Settings. If your Pipelines use the Snap with the Page Size field, they may fail to execute if the downstream Snap expects the same count. To retrieve all the records, configure the Snap with default settings, that is, Limit: 0 and Page Size: 1000.
4.23 Patch423patches7454 Latest

Adds the Pass through check box in all the Snaps to include pass-through functionality. Select this check box to embed the upstream input documents under the original field of the output document along with other records.
