How to fetch members of AD group into Qlik Nprinting using LDAP as a source

I am trying to fetch users from AD group into Qlik Nprinting. I am using LDAP Administrator tool to get the field values to filter. I am using LDAP as a source in the import task and followed some of the Qlik community posts to setup the same but it is importing only the AD group when tested and not members of it. Could you please share some sample import task with test AD group?

@TusharDev_Qlik please review this video. This is a pretty good video on how to import users using LDAP as the source. This should be helpful.

Hi,

Be sure that the Entity attributes are correctly filled. With AD it could be that you have to change some of them, for example, the User identification. You can compare the values in the Qlik NPrinting import task with the values in your LDAP Administrator tool.

@Ruggero_Piccoli thank you for your reply.

We tried multiple combinations of entity attributes and advanced options as well but still it is fetching only the AD group and not its members. We are using similar filters in Qliksense UDC connector and it is fetching the users but when the same applied to Nprinting import task it is unsuccessful.

Hi,

LDAP import task can be run in test so you could remove the filters and test the task. If you still do not have new users it means that the error is in the configuration of the entity attributes or on the checks at the bottom. By reading the generated logs you should be able to understand where there is the error.

Ruggero

@Ruggero_Piccoli 

there is no error recorded in the log.

I just need one example of all fields mentioned in the Entity Attributes on how to correctly fill those information and filter out the results we need.

Hi,

I posted a screenshot in one of my previous answers. I made it from one of my test LDAP import tasks connected with an active directory domain and that import works so you can use it as a reference.

Please note that in general an LDAP server could be customized so the names of the parameters could be different. If my parameters do not work in your case, you could speak with the person who configured it or check in the LDAP exploring tool you are using. 

Best Regards,

Ruggero

@TusharDev_Qlik as Ruggero was saying, it could be likely that your LDAP is using different attributes then in his test, you should reach out to your your LDAP/Admin team.
