crowd with AD connector: how detect disabled users ?

C_Faysal _CFcon_

hey folks,

is there a way to detect ex-employees and deactivate automatically so that there is no manual action needed?

we connect crowd to our AD through a Active Directory Connector...unfortunately it returns all records based on the used search string...so when an employee leaves the company some bits are being set on his AD record...i could filter on that one but it will remove the entire record from the results entirely. what i need is to deactivate this employee in crowd so that the "Disabled" flag gets synced to all connected applications like Jira, Confluence etc.

is this possible?

regards

Support for Active Directory disabled accounts was added to Crowd 2.7 (CWD-995), so if you're using that version or higher then you should see the user get disabled in Crowd when they're marked as disabled in Active Directory.

Try to disable incremental synchronization feature and see if the changes picked up.

im on 2.7.1 ... how does that happen? ive asked some AD guys from the company and they said that on disabled accounts a specific bit is being set.

still those users ware active in crowd. what exactly must happen on AD side in order to get them disabled in crowd ?

Thank you Caspar

hmmm i found some setting in the directory connector

Manage User Status locally:

If ticked, you can activate and deactivate users in Crowd independent of their status in the directory server.

i see that this was ticked before...does that mean it will ignore the AD settings completely?

Use CrowdLess - a free tool that allows to sync disabled account from Active Directory to Crowd. Here is the GitHub link: https://github.com/jc1518/CrowdLess
