Introduction

The LDAP module must be used if you want to synchronize somer Dolibarr entities with a LDAP database. The entities and direction you can synchronize are:

  • User -> LDAP
  • Groups -> LDAP
  • Contact -> LDAP
  • LDAP -> Contacts
  • Members -> LDAP

Installation

This module is included with the Dolibarr distribution, so there is no need to install it.

Configuration

To use this module, you must first enable it using an administrator account, via the menu option "Home - Setup - Modules".

Choose the tab where the module is listed. Then click on "Activate".

The module is now activated.

If a cog icon appears Cog circle.svg on module thumb or at end of the line of the module, click on it to access the setup page specific to the module.

Information you must supply in the LDAP module setup are:

  • LDAP server information (ip, port...)
  • Choose which synchronization you want
  • Enter the organization of your LDAP tree
  • Make matching between Dolibarr fields and LDAP fields.

Usage

For synchronization from Dolibarr to LDAP, once your setup is done, there is nothing to do. Each time you make a change in Dolibarr, the change is also saved into your LDAP.
