Filter out LDAP users

[Philip Soden]

I would like to filter out all LDAP users that have a certain string in the name e.g. all users that are named '*-AA' 

I have referred to https://confluence.atlassian.com/kb/how-to-write-ldap-search-filters-792496933.html which states:

"Wildcards are not supported when used in filters using ! (or NOT) logical operators. "

Given this I cannot combine '!' with  '*-AA'. Is there a supported way to write this filter?

Thank you.

Hi @Philip Soden  Are you searching users in JIRA ? 

Wildcard search is for Text field like summary etc...where you can ~ sign. 

For getting users having AA in name then simply type AA in filter users. You will get all users having AA in name. 

Thanks!

Hi Vikrant,

Thank you for the reply. 

This is in JIRA User management -> Configure LDAP User Directory -> User Schema Settings -> User Object Filter.

I would like to exclude all the 'AA' users from being sync'd from LDAP into JIRA using this filter, if that is possible.
