and a logical group for ALL LDAP connectors:

Assign all LDAP connectors to this connection group

Assign the LDAP connection to all the scenarios: At least AUTH and PROV:
Assign the adaptor LDAP implementation class for both AUTH and PROV scenarios

Now maintain the Mappings of LDAP attributes:

Go to IMG node

First add LDAP connection group with app type as LDAP and active:

Now assign the default connector for Provisioning and Authorization for that connection group:
Now maintain the group field mapping for PROV and AUTH actions one by one:

PROV Action Mapping:

AUTH Action Mapping:

NOTE: Please make sure field mapping is in upper case


And also maintain the group parameter mapping for PROV and AUTH actions one by one:

PROV Action Mapping:

AUTH Action Mapping:

Now maintain connector settings:


Assign Attribute to LDAP connection:

Group path can also be maintained here with GROUP PATH parameter

Add the LDAP connector and sequence as search data source


Setting LDAP user search as realtime:

Under SPRO go to Maintain Configuration Settings as shown below:

Set the realtime LDAP search parameter to YES

NOTE: If LDAP realtime search is kept to YES then multiple user search data source will only search in
LDAP systems only.
