Active directory group for authorization

punitpopli — Thu, 04 Feb 2016 07:02:14 GMT

Hi All,

I have to use user group created in active directory for controlling the authorization of users while accessing the application.

Can we directly use the AD group in QV and do we need to assign Named CAL's for the user?

How we can user the AD group for authorization in QMC.

Thanks,

Punit

You can use AD groups for AD access control and section access authorization. Use NTUSER authorization in section access and use the group name (for example AcmeDom\QVUsers).

You will need individual licenses though. Named CALs cannot be assigned to an AD group, so if you are using Named CALs, you will still need to assign them to individuals
