About Managing Users When LDAP Integration is Enabled

The LDAP integration feature is intended to simplify the GE Digital APM user management process. It allows you to manage GE Digital APM users through your existing, primary user management system: Microsoft Active Directory.

User information may change periodically in Microsoft Active Directory (e.g., group assignment, site assignment, address, phone number, job title, etc.).

One advantage of configuring LDAP integration is the ability to synchronize GE Digital APM Security User records with the information in Microsoft Active Directory. The changes made in Microsoft Active Directory will be reflected in GE Digital APM after synchronization.

Notes:

If you did not select the Enable APM Security check box, Security Role assignment will not be modified during synchronization, and you will manage Security Role assignment in GE Digital APM.
LDAP integration is designed to ensure that these the systems (GE Digital APM and Microsoft Active Directory) are synchronized. Always be sure to follow the recommended workflow for managing users.
