User Base DN

User Base DN

Info
titleTips

If you set the "User Base DN" to your LDAP Root DN, it means that the search will start from the Root DN until it finds all the results that matched the search filter.

So, setting the "User Base DN" precisely is very important as it will decide where the search is starting from. It will save all the unnecessary search between the Root DN to your "User Base DN".

Code Block
titleRoot DN
DC=joget,DC=org
Code Block
titleUnder the Root DN, you have the following DN:
DC=HR,DC=joget,DC=org
DC=Product Department,DC=joget,DC=org
DC=Operation,DC=joget,DC=org
DC=Users,DC=joget,DC=org

If your users are all under "DC=Users,DC=joget,DC=org", you should set this to "User Base DN".

By doing this, it will not go through all the other entries and it's child entries before reaching "DC=Users,DC=joget,DC=org".

User Import Search Filter

(objectClass=person)

Info
titleTips
Code Block
titleValue
(&(objectClass=person)(|(cn=admin)(cn=cat)(cn=jack)(cn=john)(cn=jackie)))

This mean all the LDAP entries which have "objectClass" attribute equals to "person" and "cn" attribute equals to either "admin", "cat", "jack", "john" or "jackie" are Joget users.

So, when a login is performed by "admin", the search filter will add additional filter and become "(&(&(objectClass=person)(|(cn=admin)(cn=cat)(cn=jack)(cn=john)(cn=jackie)))(cn=admin))". 

You will notice an extra (cn=admin) is added to the search filter to make sure it return only the "admin" user.

Info
titleUser License

User license determines on how many eventual users (sorted alphabetically) from your LDAP/AD can log in into the system. You can make use of this attribute to control amount of users returned from your LDAP.
For the trial license, there is a 3-user limitation: if you would like to perform tests on several test users, you will need to remove all the other users until your test user can be in the top 3 spots in the user list.

Mapping admin_role from your LDAP is as follows:

1. Create a new organizational unit in your LDAP. For example, the new "ou" is "ou=adminrole,dc=example,dc=org".

2. Create "cn" entries of usernames who have the admin role in Joget. The usernames must exist in your users "ou=people,dc=example,dc=org" property.

3. In Joget LDAP Directory Manager configuration, set the properties accordingly.
Below is an example but it will differ from everyone else because each organization's LDAP is different:

  • Admin Role Base DN: ou=adminrole,dc=example,dc=org
  • Admin Role Import Search Filter: (objectClass=person)
  • Attribute Mapping - Users: cn
  • Map To LDAP User Entry Primary Attribute: uid ( Set this to the same attribute you used in User 
  • Attribute Mapping - Username" [Tab 2])

4. Open incognito mode in your favorite browser and log in to Joget to test the new username with the admin role. Leave your main browser open in "Configure LDAP Directory Manager" in case you need to make some changes.

5. Go to "Setup User" and click on your test username to view the user profile information. You should see "Role(s): ROLE_USER, ROLE_ADMIN".

6. Enable "Debug Mode" to check for errors, below shows the correct setting:

Code Block

You have to keep trying various configurations until you succeed
