ArcGIS Portal-LDAP Configuration

UğurcanGül

Hello

I need to configure my portal with LDAP. When I searched, I found the attached documents.

1-https://enterprise.arcgis.com/en/portal/latest/administer/windows/use-your-portal-with-ldap-and-portal-tier-authentication.htm

2-https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hGBpCx0Q2xk(3.05 minutes)

I am waiting for information from the institution for the first document. However, it loads the addmember.txt file from the command line in the existing video in the second document. Do I have to do this too? If I do, what should the information headers be here? username-surname, mail, password, role etc. If we first set a custom role here, can I change the roles of the users in the portal afterwards?

 

Regards,

Ugur

The sample text in the help page should be enough to get started. You will just need to update the username and password to match a valid user (hopefully a service account or account that does not have a frequently changing password, as you will have to update this setting every time that changes) The username format is most likely <domain>\\<username> or <username>@&lt;domain>

The addmember.txt file is used with the CreateUsers utility in order to batch add the users from AD, rather than adding them one by one. Here is the help page with the order of account properties, you should not have headers in the file. The other option is to edit the properties string to include "enableAutomaticAccountCreation" = true which will automatically create the account when any AD user accesses the Portal. Do not do this if you want to be selective about who has access to the Portal. If you do this, make sure to set the default user type to whatever you decide most users should have in order to avoid running out of the user types that might be more limited (Creator)
