LDAP Integration

You can populate a subset of BOXI user accounts from an LDAP directory.

However, there are limitations with the LDAP functionality. For example, you cannot schedule automatic synchronization with your LDAP source. If your CA Data Protection login naming convention is not readily available as an LDAP attribute, you must set up mappings between CA Data Protection user accounts and the corresponding BOXI user accounts.

Be aware that configuring integration between BOXI and LDAP integration can be problematic, despite both SAP and CA providing detailed documentation. Our experience in the field indicates the effort required to set up LDAP integration is only justifiable if you have 25 or more reviewers (that is, BOXI users running CA Data Protection reports), or if your pool of reviewers is constantly changing.

Note: Details about integrating BOXI with an LDAP directory are available in the following guides:
