ColtonA.85802 (Customer) asked a question.

Import Users from Active Directory based on value of Attribute

I have a large number of users in a single OU and I wanted to know if there was a way to filter which users get synced with Okta based on the value of an Active Directory attribute. If this is not possible, is there a way to auto provision accounts for the users based on the AD attribute?


  • Anderson (Customer)

    Yes it is possible. You will need to set the User Filter under Provisioning\Integration for your AD instance.

     

    I recommend you first test the your LDAP filter before making changes using the built-in ldp.exe LDAP client on Windows servers. This is especially important if you are syncing more than one OU. The filter will apply to all OUs that are being synced.

     

    Examples

    • Filter on mail domain: (mail=*.domain.com)
    • Filter on group: (membeof=DN_OF_GROUP)
    • Filter on specific value in an AD attribute: (otherPager=sync)
