I know that there is a similar issue which was resolved
However, I am having problem understanding what has to be changed:
1. I've created a security role in NPrinting --> NPrinting_Developer
2. I've created an ad group --> NPrinting_Developer
3. There is just one user in this ad directory which is then imported via ldap
Entry Attributes:
What should I input in the in the advanced section to make it work?
Hi,
You cannot import a security role via LDAP import. Security roles must always be created manually before importing users.
Typical cause of your problem is that the Role identification and Role membership fiels are set to the wrong values. An LDAP server can be heavily customized so use an LDAP visualization tool or ask to the LDAP server administrator for the correct values.
In my test import connected to Active Directory, for example, Role identification is set to group not to person. Try to test by changing Role identification value to group.
I'm aware that LDAP importing is a complex topic.

Hi,
You have an AD user with the group NPrinting_Developer and you already created a Qlik NPrinting security role NPrinting_Developer and you want to import only this AD user or other users with the same AD group. All the "filters" form in the Advanced area accepts filters written using the LDAP syntax. So:
Details about LDAP import are in https://help.qlik.com/en-US/nprinting/May2021/Content/NPrinting/DeployingQVNprinting/Import-Users-Fi...

Hi,
Thank you for your reply!
My intention was not to import the security role, but to assign existing security role to imported user. Should I do it in two seperate tasks?
I have just one AD group = "NPrinting_Developer" with just one user.
My security roles:
As you suggested, I've removed anything from additional role filters. It's now empty.
Re-run the import task again and still NPrinting_Developer role wasn't assigned to my user?

Changing person to group - worked like a charm! Thank you so much. I've checked so many variations, that I didn't notice that part. I completely agree LDAP importing is complex topic 🙂
@Pawel_Snarski thanks for your feedback.
