AD/LDAP Integration with Druva Cloud Platform
For Existing inSync customers using AD/LDAP for User Management
As a DCP administrator, you must first upgrade all the old AD/LDAP Connectors that are in use in inSync for user provisioning using AD/LDAP. This ensures ongoing access to user accounts and mappings using the new Connector. Upgrading the Connectors allows the inSync administrators to modify the existing user mappings associated with the new AD/LDAP Connector.
