Import users from Active Directory without the roles

kfat — Fri, 15 Nov 2024 21:39:12 GMT

Hi,

We import users from Active Directory every weekend, while doing this, we pull all users again. In our company, we have assigned default roles such as administrator, developer, and custom roles such as "On-Demand Report Users" to certain users. We have removed the "Replace existing user associations (filters, roles, and groups)" option in the Import Task so that the roles we have given are not delete, but we noticed that the group contents are also included in the option we did not tick. We see that we cannot receive updates in groups because this option is not available.

We have been using this configuration for about a year, but we have just realized that the group contents are not updated.

We want the contents of the groups to be updated before the roles you have given to users are deleted.

Version: 21.14.7.0 - Qlik NPrinting May 2021 SR3

Do you have any ideas

Hello. Is your LDAP syntax correct when attempting to add the groups in with the rest of the user import? Please see the following link: https://help.qlik.com/en-US/nprinting/May2022/Content/NPrinting/DeployingQVNprinting/Import-Users-Filters.htm

Hi, syntax is correct, no problem importing or deleting groups. there is a problem of group members not updating because we have not selected the "Replace existing user associations (filters, roles, and groups)" option so it is not possible to update the content of the groups.

This option contains 3 features, one of which is the "Roles" option, which we do not want to implement. The other feature is the "Groups" option should be applied. However, these features cannot be selected individually.

Need a solution where groups members will be updated without deleting roles.

Best Regards
