Active Directory / LDAP in the IGEL UMS
It can make sense to link the UMS Server to an existing Active Directory for two reasons:
You would like to import users from the AD as UMS administrator accounts.
You would like to use user profiles via IGEL Shared Workplace.
For both purposes, you first need to link the relevant Active Directories in the UMS Administration area under Global Configuration > Active Directory / LDAP.
Menu path: UMS Administration > Global Configuration > Active Directory / LDAP
For detailed instructions see the articles under How to Integrate Active Directory in IGEL UMS.
