Automated disabling new users from AD

Alexander Afony1
Alexander Afonyashin Aug 07, 2012

Hello.

We are using AD as external user management source. Is there a way to automatically disable all users from AD/LDAP dictionary until they explicitly enabled in Confluence? We plan to allow only a few of them to use Conluence.

Best regards,

Alexander A. Afonyashin

Hi Alexander,

I would suggest writing a LDAP search filter to only synchronize the users that should be allowed to use Confluence. See here on how to write such a filter:

Cheers,

Pelle
