Auditor license is required for this feature.

To work with an Active Directory (AD) the Data Reviewer must be configured to connect with an AD.

Note:  If required, at any time, click on Test to make sure that the authentication and configuration are valid.

1. Go to Administration > Active Directory.
   
   
2. Click in the tick box to Enable (or disable) Active Directory Authentication.
   When Enable is selected, complete the AD configuration.
3. Active Directory Configuration:
   1. Enter the Active Directory Server address.
   2. If required, click the Search button to specify an Organizational Unit. By default, all units will be selected.
      
      
   3. If required, click in the tick box to Ignore invalid certificate.

      Note:  The Ignore invalid certificate is required when your Data Reviewer server is not in the AD domain. Contact your IT Administration for more information.

   4. If required, click in the tick box to use TLS Transport Layer Security (TLS) is an encryption protocol that protects data when it moves between computers..
   5. If required, click in the tick box to use LDAPS Secure Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAPS). A distributed IP directory protocol similar to LDAP, but which incorporates SSL for greater security..

      Note:  LDAP (over TLS) is recommended. Use LDAPS if TLS is not enabled on the AD server.

   6. Enter your AD Login ID and Password.
   7. Set a Response page size (the number of AD groups shown (default is 20) in the search results for Link to an Active Directory).
4. In Configuration Status, view the current connection status.
5. If required, click on Test to make sure that the connection is valid and secure (if required).
6. Click on Save changes.

You are now connected to the selected AD. Once connected you need to link an AD group, or groups, to local Roles.
