CA Identity Manager Release Notes › New Features › 12.6 › Active Directory Server Synchronization

Active Directory Server Synchronization

CA IAM Connector Server can be configured to let users with Active Directory Server (ADS), synchronize local identity information with cloud-based endpoint information. For example, you could set up your ADS to synchronize with a cloud-based SalesForce installation. Additions or changes to a synchronized local user group are then propagated to the SalesForce environment.

This feature requires CA IAM Connector Server, a supported endpoint, and the appropriate connector.

Note the following about the Active Directory synchronization feature:

• This feature supports only Active Directory. Other LDAP directories are not supported for use with this feature in this release.
• This feature supports only cloud-based endpoints that have an existing connector. In this release, supported applications include Google Apps and SalesForce.

For more information about this feature, see the Connectors Guide.
