Adding LDAP Users & Groups

For LDAP users to appear in the Automation Gateway Authorization Users list, you will need to:

  • Manually create each LDAP user; make sure the username matches the LDAP username.
  • Manually create the Groups in Automation Gateway to which the LDAP users will be added.

Groups are added as members to a role, and group members are listed as user members for the role. Therefore, once you have created the LDAP users and LDAP groups manually in Automation Gateway, and assigned all necessary permissions to each group, whenever an LDAP user of the same matching username logs in, that user is automatically added to the Group to which the user is a member and whatever role permissions are assigned to the group.
