Key Features & Functionality

LDAP User Profile Synchronization (Smart Service) - available in the Process Modeler under Integration Services > Connectivity Services
LDAP Sync Process Model (Sample Process Model) - will need to be tailored and tested based on identity management requirements
ldapSearch() Function - returns an array of LDAP attributes for a specific search query

Hello,

the ldapSearch() function has a problem with searching. When no order is specified, sorting by the 'mail' field is being added by default. This causes an issue where if you want to search for objects that don't have this field, such as an organizational unit, the filter never returns them. For now, I've addressed this by adding sorting based on the 'name' field. I take this opportunity to also request a change to be able to add scope to the search
